Thanks, Jack.  I think I sent away for that a while ago, but just in
case I'll mail away for another one.  Bill Baughn publishes a
newsletter with similar info for amputees.  I just received a few
copies of back issues and it's quite good.  "SELF HELP" is the key.  I
think we have the automobile attitude toward our bodies and lives.  The
jalopy (sp?) breaks down, we bring it in for repair, never learning
about what goes on under the hood, or how to keep it from happening
again.

Sigh. . . .
