• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

WORST NEWS ABOUT MY SON

You and your son are in my thoughts and prayers. I must admit that I had never heard of this condition before so I did some research and was shocked to discover it is far more common than I would have expected (1:18,000).

Hopefully you have found a neurosurgeon that specializes in this. God bless you both
 
Bob, You guys are in our thoughts and prayers! I would like to offer you one bit of wisdom that was passed on to me from my Grandfather. "The strongest steel has always been tempered in fire..." This is a horrible thing to have happen; but please don't let it weaken your faith
 
Your son and family are in are prayers. Thank you for your service's durning one of the country's difficult times:pray: John & Carol Army 6-67 / 2-72
 
I was saying healing prayers as I read each of these posts. I too pray for your comfort and wisdom for the doctors as you move forward.
 
Son

My son (41 Yrs. old) has been diagnosed with Hydrosyringomyelia. Doctor says it is more than likely caused from Spina Bifida, which is caused from me passing on Agent Orange from Vietnam.

At this point in time he will likely be completely paralyzed starting from his legs and working up his body to the base of his neck. Not sure how long this will take, he already has pain in his legs.

He will be seeing the best specialist we have found on 11/29. Still hoping for the best. Until then we are trying to keep an open mind about it all.

All you Nam vets please keep this in mind. As it wasn't apparent at birth, and the mass on his spinal cord (2.4 cm long) wasn't known about or had given him problems until recently.


I wish I could say something that someone else has allready said. But GOD bless you and your family .
