Re: Disability discrimination

You have my prayers.
I too have TBI and PTSD.

Re: Greetings from the Colorado Rockies
I would like to see the forum get much more active. There are some things that are better discussed in this format than the chat room. I personally think that both venues are important for mutual support and friendship.
