Rest in peace, Plaidman. May you find the love and happiness that eluded you when you walked the earth.

I was reading a thread on fratching and saw his replies, it doesn't seem real yet. So sad to see his posts

He was a great man, and he was a kind man. My name is John I was his best friend here in town. I can try and help those who want to get a hold of his family. At the moment his mom is overwhelmed but I'm sure she will appreciate your thoughts.

John, thank you so much for letting us know about Driver's passing. I think I can dare speak for everyone when I say we all greatly appreciate the thoughtfulness you showed him and us by doing so. I can't say I knew him well, but I always enjoyed his posts, and clearly many others here had deeper relationships with him.

Please add my deepest condolences to those of my friends here for Driver's family.

Requiescat In Pace, Driver. God Bless you and may He welcome you into His Loving arms.

I think that depression is the cruelest disease anyone can suffer. It convinces us that no one around us sees or understands our suffering, and isolates us from those who love us the most.

I hope that anyone who suffers from depression, or knows someone who does, will seek help. It is out there for the asking.

There was no member quicker to reach out to someone who was hurting than Plaidman. I found his compassion to be all the more remarkable given the extraordinary challenges he faced in his own life.

This community is poorer for having lost such a loving and generous soul.

For those of you, like me, who are feeling helpless and hopeless in the face of this loss, I can only ask that we all strive to be the kind of person he was.

Hasta luego, Plaid. Via con Deos, mi amigo.

For those on the Easr Coast, contact www.nfnetwork.org They help to rais money for research and they do a summer camp for children who has NF so they can meet other children who have NF. The NF organization the Plaid always mentioned to me is www.ctf.org

If any good can come out of this, please educate your friends and family about this disorder. Nfnetwork has packets of information that can be mailed for free or downloaded and printed from their site.

Hubby and I have been educating as many as we can for the last 20 years. Hubby for as long as he can remember.

Hubby and Driver spoke many time about their mutual struggle. He was there for support when Hubby had a fibroma removed from the C2 area of his spine two years ago. I just wish he would have reached out to us.

was digging through my albums on fb and the external hard drive and found some of the avatars i made for Plaid when i started doing avatars under my old screen name.
hesitated because i knew posting them would bring on another wave but i asked mods to make sure. so here they are.
