My Story: www.healingwell.com/community/default.aspx?f=35&m=3300024

For anyone who has never attended one of these, it is a blast! It is not a pity party, but it is a party. Knowledge is key to fighting this disease and its side effects. You have a wealth of knowledge here with people from Gleason 6 to 9. We do this over some drinks and great food. I don't know of anyone who didn't think this was a positive experience. You don't know these people when you arrive, but they become lifelong friends from all over the country and from all walks of life. Louisiana is awesome this time of year. Several couples will be enjoying New Orleans in the days preceding the event. If you are on the fence, jump on in.

Cheers,
Paul

Those of you going to Acme Oyster House, have a dozen for me.

Nawlins is a great place...spent some time there pre Katrina with family...the heat and humidity...makes it for me...sultry...a temptation balanced with a governor{auto kine}.... a dialect of its own...much like hawaii...Hawaii has the malasada...a beignet with granulated sugar instead of powdered...both onolicious...our malasada is associated with fat Tuesday and arrived with the portugese immigrants who came to work in the sugar cane fields back in the day...of course...that[sugar cane fields) is another "rainbow connection"
in joy yourseleves...the rest of the forum will breathe your air...
