Hi to the newbies. Know that this is a great place to ask questions and become informed. The only silly question is the one not asked!

No one wants to join our group but will find some very nice compassionate people.

Yes, there have been a lot of new members lately. Still, if the rate in the US is around 3650 per year, we would have to get 10 newbies a day to get them all. There is still work to do!

I think hooking up to this forum is the best thing a newly diagnosed ANer can do, for the wealth of information and support available here. I can't imagine taking the AN journey without it.

I hope the trend continues, and that more ANs are discovered early, for easier treatment, and that more ANers discover this forum, to help them deal with it.
