Good Morning, Sandy Possum, I hope you slept OK.

It sounds like there won't be another study until she can raise a lot of money. If that's the answer you get, you might inquire about individual treatment.

Yeah, and we've got pointy sticks, so keep that butt moving.

Bruce, I also read about her being underfunded, but I also found this page, with the statement "there is currently no set end date for this study" which gives me some hope that it is still going on, albeit it at a slow pace.

And I did sleep without nightmares last night - must be your good vibes. x x x

OK, then the study is ongoing. My mistake, I thought that report meant the study had concluded. They were just saying they needed more money to expand it. Did you check your head for nails and screws?

Not sure it is, Bruce, as the report is from 2013. Yesterday was a public holiday here so she would only get my email today. Fingers crossed.

You clearly need facebook detox. I wonder if there's a residential program or if we'll just have to lock you up in The Cellar

I got locked in the cellar by my parents when I was a child. It was a proper cellar, underground, brick walls, no lights, full of huge spiders. Australian houses rarely have a cellar, but this house was built during our gold rush in the 1850s and used to be a bank. So let's try another analogy, shall we?!

You know, I was thinking today that if I won lotto, I would see if I could get all of you who have responded to fly somewhere and meet up. It would be so nice.

I know you did, Monster. Hey, it was sort of a joke by me - that's a good thing, yes?

jokes are always good.

What do you call a one-eyed dinosaur?
