Hi David, I always like to listen to your presentation or read your contributions. You are really a blessed person, I think. A lot of PWS have amazing stories to share, and sometimes I think my evolvement from a reclusive, shy and timid 17 year old boy to now,s being husband, father and global citizen outside of comfort zones is more spectacular than I often realize myself. And the key was joining self help in 1991 and slowly accepting that I am and will be a PWS. My "coming out" was to apply for a scholarship to China in 1992 with research "Stuttering in China", which I was granted and lead to the begin of work for self help in China, which may if all goes well culminate in the 2010 World Congress. Today the Beijing Group will do public ISAD events, and to see this is almost as touching for me as to see my little daughter grow. So I believe we both share some parts of such amazing transformations, and I wish to continue sharing it with you when we meet occasionally over the next years or on the web! Have a good weekend. Stefan
