Guest guest Posted September 21, 2001 Report Share Posted September 21, 2001 Since the 11th,almost all our conversations,posts,and activities have seemed unimportant and an effort to struggle through.This is true nationally.Many are searching to make reason out of their lives. I saw 'Conan' last night,and every joke he said,he prefaced with saying how inane and unimportant it was,and looked back at a couple of weeks ago and said it felt as though it was a different lifetime. People have found that really bad things _can_ happen to themselves,and it has struck them with fear of their future,and they are changed. You know,before this,people met with personal life changing events-breast cancer,kidnapped children,terminal illness in their family,rape,murder,tornados,etc.When they acted like nothing matters any more,we told them the same insipid thing the mayor of New York says-go back to normal,pretend it didn't happen. For the last year and a half,I have been trying to be normal,with great effort(which is very tiring).I have forced myself to look like I give a flyin' hoot about what fabric a friend's couch will be in ,and will it match the drapes?Another friend avoids me because I am so 'negative'-I just can't care about her constant crisis,which amount to nothing more than should she get that new purse that matches her shoes?What should she do?! Have I been depressed,or was life put into clear perspective?Nationally,I would say life has been brought into sharper focus,which will(sadly) dull as the 'daily' returns.God will return to being our national mascot,no one cares to know what he wants,anyway.And people will go back to pretending their life isn't fading like grass. Ecclesiastes 1 1 The words of the Teacher,[1] son of , king in Jerusalem: 2 " Meaningless! Meaningless! " says the Teacher. " Utterly meaningless! Everything is meaningless. " 3 What does man gain from all his labor at which he toils under the sun? 4 Generations come and generations go, but the earth remains forever. 5 The sun rises and the sun sets, and hurries back to where it rises. 6 The wind blows to the south and turns to the north; round and round it goes, ever returning on its course. 7 All streams flow into the sea, yet the sea is never full. To the place the streams come from, there they return again. 8 All things are wearisome, more than one can say. The eye never has enough of seeing, nor the ear its fill of hearing. 9 What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. 10 Is there anything of which one can say, " Look! This is something new " ? It was here already, long ago; it was here before our time. 11 There is no remembrance of men of old, and even those who are yet to come will not be remembered by those who follow. 12 I, the Teacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 I devoted myself to study and to explore by wisdom all that is done under heaven. What a heavy burden God has laid on men! 14 I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind. 15 What is twisted cannot be straightened; what is lacking cannot be counted. 16 I thought to myself, " Look, I have grown and increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me; I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge. " 17 Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, and also of madness and folly, but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind. 18 For with much wisdom comes much sorrow; the more knowledge, the more grief.

You're right, it's probably better to talk about something unrelated to dwarfism on a dwarfism list serve. Something more interesting like soap operas and flame wars. Nothing " stupid " like architectural barriers, social prejudices or medical issues. > Anyone with a disability would have > difficulty escaping..

That's the problem, many companies don't. And to make it worse, many employers have not given it much thought. This forum is great place (sometimes) to get ideas on how and who to approach to get these plans in place. Of course if it BORES you, we should probably shuck the conversation. > We all have a right to free speech, but when in my > opinion stupid topics are hashed and rehashed this list > becomes quite boring > and eventually people begin to unsubscribe and miss out on > the good stuff > that is posted every once in a while.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2001 Report Share Posted September 21, 2001 Not to " pile it on " :-) but how can lp escape plans be stupid? There is NOTHING stupid about a parent trying to protect their child. We are not qualified to instill world peace on people who aren't interested so I would rather focus on what we do know...keeping ourselves and our children safe (animals too).

Of course if it > BORES you, we should probably shuck the conversation. This is true. At the last company I worked for, as part of a building renovation, they put up a big, blue lighted sign that said " Disabled Rescue Location " near a stairwell (sort of) to the ground floor. During the next fire drill, instead of leaving, I went and stood under the sign. Guess what? After about a minute I was the only one left in the building... still standing there waiting to be " rescued. " - Dave P.S. Please pass this on to everyone in your address book, because it was originally written by someone you've probably never met (or possibly even heard of) and because, contrary to age-old wisdom, you CAN believe everything you read. Therefore, it must be 100% true and should be taken seriously. If you don't pass it on, bad things will happen to you -- like you'll suddenly become a fan of pro wrestling (which is real, by the way), or a dying girl scout from England who knows Fred Short too well will show up on your doorstep and try to sell you a chocolate chip cookie recipe.

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2001 Report Share Posted September 21, 2001 Geezes people, give the chain letter rebuke a rest!! So what if one chain letter came on? Why can't we just give her some slack and move on? I've been deleting a lot and not making a big deal out of some of the other posts, but man... In lieu of these arguments, maybe the quote " United we stand " should be turned into " United we fall. " Irene > P.S.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2001 Report Share Posted October 25, 2001 Just to add a bit more on this doctor, Rob Rozbruch received his Ilizarov training under Dr. Paley and Dr. Herzenberg. He is the Co-Director of the Limb Lengthening program at the Hospital for Special Surgery and a Clinical Instructor at Cornell. He is a member of the faculty at the course Dr. Paley and Dr. Herzenberg hold every September which is where I met him one year and then I actually visited his clinic when I was up in NY. You can read more about him and his program at http://www.limblengthening.com Gillian.

Most of my relative still live in and around London. I also look forward to getting to know the rest of my family. I hope everybody isn't to shy to share, the questions are quite generic, so let's have some fun!
