Guest guest Posted May 19, 2002 Report Share Posted May 19, 2002 Very impressive indeed, Francesca! Good going!

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2002 Report Share Posted May 19, 2002 Congratulation Francesca! I hope we get to hear (read) many reports like this from you for many more years. Reports like this are very motivating to those of us who are still settling into CRON.

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2002 Report Share Posted May 19, 2002 Francesca, This is great news! I'm sure many members of this group have a genetic minefield ahead of them and that's one of the main motivations for undertaking the discipline of CRON. I for one am definitely not a genetically long-lived strain of human It's great to hear that you have so clearly outsmarted your fate! Please keep us posted. News like this is what the support group is all about.
