From one of our special people, Jamie Wilson:

The Sjogren's Syndrome Foundation is hosting a fundraising and educational event May 15th @ the Grapevine Mills Mall. The money they receive is used for research and patient/physician education. I have created a website for friends/family to donate. It is www.firstgiving.com/jaimiewilson.

We cannot put off living until we are ready. The most salient characteristic of life is its urgency, “here and now” without any possible postponement. Life is fired at us point blank.
