Because the public forums on the FAR BBS have started getting a lot of unsolicited advertising, we have decided to enable the screening feature for each of these forums, which means a public-forum post by a visitor who is an unregistered user of Ez-Board cannot be read until an admin determines it is safe and then releases it to the general readership.

I'm on anti-depressants and they just don't help. I am sad. I cry a lot. I want my momma back! I took care of her for almost 5 years, I told her I loved her every single day.

Ann had Brian, who died at the age of 7 in 1987. Brian had a long illness (lukemia) and knew he was dying. He was excited to die. His main concern was preparing all those around him for his death. He mainly focused on his mother, who he knew would be lost without him.
