Hi Eddy,

Thank you so very much for responding to each and every one of my
concerns. I feel comforted knowing that I am not alone and my symptoms
are "normal". You said that I inspire you . . . wow . . . what a
compliment indeed!!!! Everyone who has posted a message, answered a
question or provided insight for another has brought me to my decision
to not only juice wheatgrass but grow it for myself and all whom come
calling. . . you (all) have indeed inspired me!!!!!

Thanks a million,
YazzyBear [:D]
