Hello!

I am new to this site and found it quite by "accident" though after visiting for the past week, realized that it was definitely anything but! This is a remarkable site and feel truly blessed to have stumbled upon it, as it is quite obvious the support that each person on here has for another! I am the friend and part time caregiver to a man w/ level c-5 incomplete, and though I do not have any pertinent questions at the moment, it is reassuring to know that if any arise in the future, this forum is available.

At any rate, just wanted to say HI.
