        Hi Linda

I have MS too.  It was diagnosed about 6 years ago.  I guess you
could call my level of imparement as "moderate".  I am in the
Canadian Navy - and have not been released to date.  But I have
been retained with restrictions - which means that I cannot be
promoted or sent on any course that is not essential for the job I
am doing.  Right now I am a staff officer in National Defence
Headquartes.  One of the dreaded staffies.<grin>  I hate staff work
but it keeps a pay check coming which is important with a daughter
in university and a son in high school.

        Hope to hear more from you.
                                cheers   Al
