Always had hope, but is now fading. I had a Vagus Nerve implant (clinical study) at UMDNJ- had it removed one year later as it was of no help to me what so ever. So much testing, "abnormal findings" too much to write. I keep trying my hardest every day, but don't know if I want to anymore- lost hope. PLEASE HELP!

I guess I just wanted to say that video on the internet is a lot more accessible than it ever used to be. I watch most of my favorite shows that way, too. With the popularity of Youtube, I just think that videos are a very effective way of attracting attention, as a general statement. :) I'm so glad you folks have the site open and are getting a lot of registrations!
