Dear friends in what I refer to as the "NA Movement":

I am submitting a nearly completed web site for your critique. First, let me be very clear on my purpose. I have nothing to add to what already exists on the web. All the information to educate fellow sufferers is already here. My soul purpose is ensure that absolutely everyone who is looking for information on the treatment of Dups will have the opportunity to learn about NA and make an informed decision about their treatment. I want to get the attention of the uninformed sufferer.

That's it. That's all.

But if we accomplish *that*, NA will go mainstream much faster than the track it's currently on. The ONLY thing stopping it is ignorance, both on the part of the medical establishment and on those who suffer. This site is aimed at our fellow sufferers who might otherwise remain in the dark. It's all about education. The more patients who put off surgery to give NA a try, the greater the pressure that will be brought to bear on the surgeons who will begin loosing patients in greater numbers. Regardless of their motives, be it genuine concern for their patients or profit, one thing will become crystal clear. The'll need to learn NA to stay on the Cutting Edge (no pun intended). I am emphatically *not* anti surgery (when needed), anti surgeons, anti anything here but ignorance.

What I'm looking for from all of you is feedback. What inaccuracies have I stated? What significant omissions. Spelling mistakes?
Yes, my friend spelled it “Injectable Coegenase", so we need to fix that.

Once I feel the site has the "right stuff", I will launch it into orbit, high on all the search engines. Without that it will be useless. I have no idea what this will cost. A number of you offered to help financially, which I appreciate. Lets wait and see what the costs really are. I may go this alone.

My motivation? Simple. Though I searched the net before my surgery, all I found was Authoritative Conformation that I must get cut. I have no intention of letting others go that same path. Later, I tired my best to tell my surgeon about NA. His words: "That's been tried. It doesn't work".................Fine. Let's go another route: Through The Patients who will educate surgeons with their feet and pocketbooks.

This address must be changed. My programer didn't now that there presently is no cure.

Hey Randy

Great job. I also am using Explorer, and the image does
pop on after a few seconds. The site is very neat and "clean" and hopefully will attract new interest in NA.

Randy,
Your site looks great! I admit that I didn't even look for
typos, just read through. I am willing to make good on my commitment for a contribution, let me know when and where to send the check.

I can't access your web site. I get message "Result 503. Service unavailable." I don't know what that means but I guess those with Web TV (MSN TV) can't get to your web site. Thought you'd like to know. (There are many of us!)

Congratulations for your great efforts on behalf of your fellow suffers of DD.

Patty,
Thanks so much. I e-mailed myself the web site reference, clicked on it and it came right up. How strange!

Randy H, Great work. How kind of you to make this effort.
