Hi everyone,

I realize a lot of people are growing tired of this topic, so I'll keep my

comments brief.

has every right to make her own decisions concerning medication and

while I'm not sure I agree, I definitely support her in whatever lifestyle

she's chosen. The purpose of this group is to provide support for all the

members, and I hate to think we've fallen so far as to become irate with

continued displays of support for , or for anyone else. I know it

makes my day a little brighter everytime someone posts personal encouragement

to me and I'm sure feels the same way.

If some of you feel encouraged by reading a line-by-line synopsis of the

exact dosages of medications, that's wonderful and I hope your conversations

are rewarding and informative.

However, personally I'm a member of the list because I think it's great that

those of us who live with JRA (and whose loved ones are coping with the

disease), are receiving positive support. If that ever stops due to it

becoming tiresome ... then I'll be unsubscribing.

cheers

Good points, Jenni.

I did not intend my exasperated comments to imply a lack of support or

sympathy for (or anyone else), but, rather, to try to dispel the

erroneous image that everyone on the list is against and trying to

force meds down her throat. I thought that what I shared made it very clear

that I am completely supportive of everyone's right to make his/her own

decisions.

And now, having butted in, I'll butt out.
