Snip:
ScienceDaily (Dec. 20, 2011) — Anxious people have long been classified as "hypersensitive" -- they're thought to be more fearful and feel threatened more easily than their counterparts. But new research from Tel Aviv University shows that the anxious may not be hypersensitive at all -- in fact, they may not be sensitive enough.

It's a honour to get a friends request from you. I first heard about you in about 95 when a fellow hypnotherapist lent me a tape of a lecture that you did at the ABH on AIDS. It really changed my way of thinking!

We are moving dad out of the nursing home and taking him back home. He didn't show any improvement from the therapies (OT, speech, and PT). The nursing home environment was "too busy" for him. He tires easily, and sleeps a lot. He'll get more love and better care at home.
