Dear Hal:
My intent in the threat "Martha Bidlack--living proof!" was merely to put a human face on what real medicine--as opposed to alternative one--can do. It didn't seem to me like an invasion of privacy since I was merely commenting on what Linda wrote in a general way--knowing that what she wrote about Martha is, no doubt, with your permission.
I was wrong. I shouldn't have used your wife as an example, even if it was meant as a positive one, and even if it was meant in a general way. I repeat my wishes of full recovery to her, and apologize for my insensitivity. For what it's worth, it was not INTENDED as an invasion of privacy.
One thing: I tried to delete my post--and with it the thread--but for some reason could not. If you wish, you can remove it without further asking.
