I agree. There is no "slack" in Slackwater.
The great help and research are really appreciated.

Thanks for the thanks.

Reading, taking notes, posting, helps keep track of data. I'm glad others get some benefit. The need to read adrsupport.org shows we all have a condition that limits our activities of daily living, ...

Take care,

What is astounding to me is how people like Slack are able to provide the time and TLC to help so many people. The community is largely transitional, but somehow we are able to be blessed with people like Slack that can help so many others.

Steve, thanks for sharing and helping!
