Great to hear about Mateo and so sorry to hear about the loss of your brother and your father in laws battle with cancer. I know the evolution of the internet was one of the things that caused this place to fade away but be I also suspect it was that we all cared about each other so much that we ran out of things to say to comfort the pain that others were experiencing.

I know this place left me feeling like “ my arms were too short” to comfort some of the pain ASKickers were suffering through.

Anyway, I hope Mateo succeeds to become a PT. Anyone who has a father with AS probably brings some special skills to that calling.

My Jamie was a lacrosse player and cross country runner she started down the road to being PT but now seems to be on road to school counselor and maybe a coach.

Glad you stil occasionally haunt these halls.
