RE: @Girlbeforemirror: A Tribute to Astonishing Talent ... and a Heart that is Gallant

@sultnpapper,

I love the fact that you and Marg are riffing. There's nothing like the experience itself. The rest of us, unwittingly, are simply too ignorant to contribute much beyond moral support. How could we not be? EDS is rare. But you guys know all the nuances and I'm glad you've found each other. This alone was worth the post.

Respecting Alzheimer's, my daughter plans, someday, to start blogging on Steemit about our experiments and the compounds we've formulated. It's a Herculean task though. To reduce it all to everyday language ... not easy. Her teachers have no idea what she's talking about.

And, she's really busy. There are several universities in a bidding war to get her to attend. One has offered her a Free Ride (tuition, books, room & board) and a very substantial research budget (to use as she likes) ... even as a freshman! To keep the bidders bidding, though, she's got to keep her grades up ... and, at her level, that means 95%+ in nothing but Advanced (by several years) Classes.

As you can tell, I am a ferociously proud father. My daughter says it's not classy for me to brag about her. She's right, but I can't help myself. And, since she's not here to stop me ...

They are called "bragging rights" for a reason, so use them by all means. You should be very proud as I am sure you are.
