People call me an optimist but I’m really an appreciator … years ago I was cured of a badly infected finger with antibiotics when once my doctor could have recommended only a hot water soak or eventually surgery…. When I was six years old and had scarlet fever the first of the miracle drugs sulfanilamide saved my life. I’m grateful for computers and photocopiers … I appreciate where we’ve come from.
