Hi everyone - this is a little overdue but I just wanted to thank everyone involved in the creation and publishing of Outreach. I always look forward to the next issue and I don't think I've ever acknowledged how much I appreciate all your work.
Also - a special kudos to Christopher who did an amazing job on his story about his experience at Stanford - good stuff - I'm sure very labor intensive, full of insight, emotion and great info. This injury happened to us 6.5 years ago and I think I can say that the biofeedback really helped Eric the most in finding the best way to deal with his pain. We didn't have the exact same experience because Eric had his sessions in a psychologist's office rather than a teaching hospital, but what he learned from it opened the door to the secrets of pain and how to deal with it.
Happy 2007 and thanks so much to everyone for being here for others.
