I clicked through and read the title
pages and the first part of Chapter 1.
It seems spot on and I have pre-ordered the
tome.

THe differential diagnoses for weight loss
were somewhat alarming - brain tumour, AIDS, and gastro-intestinal disorders :-o

But the next page stating that the best prognosis was for those caught young (yes) and early (yes) without the full spectrum of symptoms (yes). This group can be in remission within a year and then make steady recovery. This has given me hope and prompted me to spend the £42 if only so that I can read that paragraph regularly :-)

Waif seems much more cheerful at the moment even though the late night snack last night was a little traumatic as we had an argument over what size hot chocolate she should have (she wanted tiny, I was gunning for the 1/2 pint cup).
