OBPI life struggles/Overuse
Whatever happened to all those adult letters/life stories that used to be on the old board. It was a section that people told their life stories. All I can fnd are the ones the parents wrote. I seem to remember one from Kath and Tina and Nancy. There was some good stuff in them. I can't find anything for OBPI adult other than a brief article on overuse that was in the awareness magazine. Thanks. Pat

I have no answer to your question I'm sorry to say.

Pat,
Our webmaster, Ryan McClune, has all of the files from the old website. Some of the information is not up yet. He is working on a new registry which will allow us all to enter this kind of information and will combine the online registry and the life stories and have lots of new features as well. As you know, anything related to computers seems to take forever!
