Rest in Peace

Been such a close part of my life for nearly 6 years. Always helpful, and I've always felt lost without you. Now that you're gone from my life I don't know what to do...Yep people, my Sprint PCS phone is officially dead. It powers up, but gets no signal anywhere. Need to find a replacement, any recommendations? Wonder if I should just switch carriers completely and go with say, T-Mobile, with a package that includes access to their WiFi Hot-Spots. But I've been with Sprint for so long -- close to 10 years, at a time before they rolled out PCS and had their own Sprint digital network -- that I don't want to dump them, unless of course T-mobile gives me a sweet deal. Then there's AT&T and Verizon carriers to look at. Man, too many options, and too much money to sneeze at.

Got the Monday blues, need to get this sequence out to a collaborator ASAP, but can't seem to get myself motivated -- been thinking about my son's skin problem with atopic dermatitis (AD). I wish there was a treatment for him that was certain-- Elidel and Protopic do not help. I'm so frustrated with this problem. I wish the true cause of AD was known -- how could 10 to 15% of infants suffer from this and a cause not be known? And no agreed uniform treatment? Had blood tests done and he's not allergic to any of the big allergens, like milk protein, pet dander, etc. I have a feeling he'll be suffering from this condition until it diminishes on its own (usually by 18-36 months) -- and we won't figure out what makes him sick.
