Instant hope

I love the unexpected. Tonight I got an e-mail from the leader of my support group for my skin disorder. She instructed all of us to talk to our doctors and become part of a study. The National Institute of Health has given a docter in Texas $6 million to do genetic research on my disease. It gives me hope for the future that others won't have to deal with what I have. And it makes me smile to know that there is enough care and concern for people who have my disease that they would even study it at all. It warms my heart and makes me smile. I have great hope for a future where joints are easy to use, and lungs breath a lot easier.
