Ok, here is the situation.
I am sharing hosting with my sites. My main site is set up and hosting all my other domains. I have each of these domains pointed to a subdirectory on the main site. For example:
mainsite.com is hosting mainsite.com/domainA, mainsite.com/domainB, etc.
I have a domain that was pointing to mainsite.com/domainA which had WordPress on it. I want to shift that domain to point to mainsite.com/domainB, which also has WordPress installed on it but WP 3.0.1 (using the multisite functionality and buddypress).
So, I went into my host, pointed the domain to mainsite.com/domainB and indeed, when you type in the domain name it redirects to mainsite.com/domainB.
Problem is, I don't want my URL to reveal where I am hosting my site to visitors. I don't want the url to say mainsite.com/domainB. I want the URL to say domain.com.
With the old WordPress, or even the current standard install (not multisite), you would just go to Admin > Settings > General and change the URLs of the WordPress URL and Site URLs. (as per our example, I just changed it from mainsite.com/domainA to domain.com)
You can't do this in WP 3.0 multisite. I am trying to figure out how. Now, when I look at the wp-config.php file I see:
define( 'MULTISITE', true );
define( 'SUBDOMAIN_INSTALL', false );
$base = '/domainA/';
define( 'DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE', 'mainsite.com' );
define( 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE', '/domainA/' );
define( 'SITE_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
define( 'BLOG_ID_CURRENT_SITE', 1 );
Is that what I need to change? Just change mainsite.com to domain.com and domainA to domainB?
Thanks to anyone who can help!

"It was only a mile from the house so she went over there," Rad said. "When she realized it was him, she went on to the hospital."
At the hospital, the family was told that Richard had suffered severe head trauma and it wasn't clear if he'd even survive.
"I remember thinking if this was an April Fool's joke, it was not a good joke," said Rad glancing at his father, seated next to him in a wheelchair for their daily ritual of "The Price is Right."
"His condition wasn't good," Rad said. "I remember thinking I hope he doesn't die. Our mom had passed away, so we were familiar with death."
Richard was in a coma for weeks. After that, he went to a rehabilitation center. For a year, Rad and Levi lived with their father's brother, Dennis Martinez. Then they moved in with Richard's parents. Rad grew up watching his grandmother care for his father, and Levi Martinez believes that has a lot to do with Rad's decision to take over their father's care after Clara's death.
"He was always close to our grandma, and she always put Dad first," said Levi.
Rad acknowledges his affection for his grandmother plays a role in his devotion to his father.
"She didn't want me to do this," said Rad as he gently wipes his father's mouth. "But I heard her say to Dad 100 times, 'Richard, what is going to happen to you when I'm gone?' She was desperately afraid of what was going to happen to him. I told her, I was going to do it. So I'm going to do it. She did it for 17 years, 24 hours a day. If she can do that, then I can do it."
That determination, that drive is what makes him a top-notch fighter. It also made him a successful college wrestler, although he almost chose a completely different path.
The boys moved with their father and grandparents to West Jordan when Rad was a senior in high school. He played football and wrestled for the Jaguars, but he wanted badly to graduate, get a job and start earning his own money.
"I didn't want to go to college," he said. "I wanted to start working. My wrestling coach got me a job taking care of swimming pools. He rode me every single day about going to college. 'You've got to go to college; you've got to go to college.' He finally talked me into it."
He also helped him secure a wrestling scholarship with Northwest Community College in Wyoming. After that he went to Clarion College in Pennsylvania, where he wrestled at 133 pounds. He graduated, coached for the college and earned his master's in sports management.
One of his college teammates, Frank Edgars, began fighting in the Ultimate Fighting Championship and he trained a little with him in martial arts that year.
"He kept saying, 'You've got to do this. You'd be great at it,' " said Rad with a grin. "I moved home and started an internship with Real Salt Lake. I wanted to work in sports."
He watched Edgars continue to evolve into a talented MMA fighter, and he and his brother began to pay attention to the growing sport. In 2006, he began helping with his father's care more and more. Then in 2008, another friend talked him into taking some jiujitsu classes with him at Gold's Gym.
"I was getting a lot of compliments, people saying I was big and strong," he said. "After three weeks, they talked me into a tournament and I took second. The bug had bit."
They bought some equipment and began training for an MMA fight. They really didn't know what they were doing, but they were having fun.
"I didn't miss some of the training for wrestling, but I missed the competition," he said. Rad fought an amateur fight and won but hurt himself. He recovered, fought again and lost a close decision.
Meanwhile, Levi Martinez, who owns a wrestling club for youngsters, saw Johnny Riche at a wrestling tournament. Riche told him Rad should try out at Throwdown in Orem.

by staff report •
As director Tom Hooper's "The King's Speech" opens, war clouds are forming over England. King George V is aging. Herr Hitler is orating like the dickens. It is apparent the king's heir apparent will let love with a commoner deter him from reigning. And geez, his little brother, the Duke of York, has a terrible stammer. This won't do at all.

February 13, 2012 was the 100th day of school this year.
The students made hats, and wore "100 Day" glasses and star-shaped stickers.
There were "hundreds" of activities throughout the day! Here Mrs. M is reading the book "100th Day Worries."
Each student also brought in a collection of 100 things. One of the smallest items was lentils.
The students explained to the class what they had chosen to bring in. Will brought 100 pebbles.

I know how i can disable auto logon in windows 7 by using
netplwiz, but is there a way ( possibly a keyboard combination pressed during startup ) that will prevent autologon only for this one boot?
I know how i can disable auto logon in windows 7 by using
Hold down the shift key while the machine starts.
You may need a hotfix for this to work, support.microsoft.com/kb/977534
I created a simple apicación in VB.NET, you just need to enable remote logging on the machine with auto logon from your computer and run the application. When the session is opened on the remote machine running NoLogin to disable the automatic startup, closed session and see that pressing OK and not entered automatically, or run it and restart your computer,if you want to re-enable would be the same process.
I found this somewhere else, and it works for me, everytime.
If you watch the num-lock light on the keyboard, during the log off process, you notice a little blip where the light turns off and then back on. If you wait for that to happen and then hold left shift it should work. 100% for me anyway. Perhaps windows is stopping the keyboard driver for some purpose during the log off? Who knows.
If you alternate right - left shift keys very quickly well Windows is booting it will bypass the auto log on and take you to a log on screen.

Up, Up and Away Hot
Up, Up and Away is a glorious new picture book from Tom McLaughlin, full of imagination and wonder. With delights such as The Cloudspotter and The Accidental Prime Minister already tucked under his belt - Tom McLaughlin is carving out a quite wonderful place in the world of kids' literature.
The Famishing Vanishing Mahoosive Mammoth is a great rollicking rhyming picture book from Hollie Hughes and Leigh Hodgkinson.
The Great Dragon Bake Off is the latest picture book from the wonderfully funny Nicola O'Byrne. At its heart this is a picture book about finding the courage to be yourself, no matter what. Underlying that are some glorious references to some very familiar celebrity chefs, you'll be chuckling away, I guarantee it.
Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam, The Diamond Chase, a picture book by Tracey Corderoy and Steven Lenton, is reviewed for My Book Corner by Kerry Trickett.
The Apprentice Witch from debut author James Nicol is a wonderful page turner with a fresh voice. Full of magic and mayhem, it follows the intriguing character of Arianwyn Gribble. This book really is quite something. In the opening chapters poor Arianwyn fails the all important witch's assessment ... in dramatic style. The evaluation gauge doesn't just fail her, but smokes and pops before delivering its verdict - 'ungraded'. Arianwyn is devastated.
Kerry Trickett reviews Corderoy and Lenton's second Shifty McGifty picture book - Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam, The Cat Burglar. You can enjoy her inaugural review for MBC here. If you enjoyed Tracey Corderoy and Steven Lenton's picture book, Shifty McGifty and Slippery Sam, you'll love The Cat Burglar. From crime to cakes to … heroes — this pair just get more loveable!
The Lines on Nana's Face is a thoughtful picture book from Simona Ciraolo. It celebrates Nanas in a most wonderful manner, as our little narrator has a lovely conversation with her own Nana. She learns so much when she asks her if she minds the lines on her face.
Perfect Hot
Perfect, a picture book created by Nicola Davies and Cathy Fisher, deals with a topic I haven't seen before in picture books - the reaction of an older sibling to the arrival of his little sister, who is disabled. Both Davies and Fisher have created a tender book which approaches the topic in a powerfully brilliant manner.
The Truth According to Arthur is an amusing picture book from Tim Hopgood and David Tazzyman.
The Dragon and the Nibblesome Knight from Elli Woollard and Benji Davies is a wonderfully upbeat picture book about dragons and knights told in delightful rhyme. Oh - and there's Benji Davies's quite fabulous map at the beginning ... who doesn't adore a book with a map?!

NEW YORK -- Pinch-hitter Damion Easley hit a tying three-run homer in the seventh inning, and Alex Gonzalez had a two-out, RBI single in the eighth to give the Florida Marlins a 7-6 win over the New York Mets on Saturday.
With runners on second and third in the seventh, Lenny Harris was sent in as a pinch hitter but the Mets called for left-hander Mike Stanton. Easley batted for Harris and hit his second homer of the season to tie it at 5.
An inning later, Hee Seop Choi beat out an infield single with two outs against reliever David Weathers (5-2). Jeff Conine walked and Gonzalez followed with a single to right. Choi beat Shane Spencer's throw to the plate, sliding under catcher Vance Wilson's tag.
Matt Perisho (4-2) pitched 1 1-3 for the win.
Armando Benitez allowed Mike Piazza second homer of the game leading off the ninth before finishing for his 22nd save.
Cubs 6, Pirates 1
CHICAGO -- Carlos Zambrano pitched eight solid innings and Rey Ordonez hit a two-run single in the seventh to lead the Cubs over Pittsburgh.
Derrek Lee added a two-run homer in the eighth for Chicago, which snapped a 3-game losing streak.
Zambrano (6-2) allowed one run on four hits, and struck out seven and walked two. He retired six of the last seven batters he faced.
Pittsburgh was without manager Lloyd Mclendon, serving the first of a two-game suspension for his shouting match with Cardinals manager Tony La Russa on Thursday. The Pirates have lost six of their last seven games.
Phillies 5, Braves 3
ATLANTA -- Ricky Ledee drove in three runs and Brett Myers overcame a rough opening inning to win for the first time in three starts, leading Philadelphia over the Braves.
The Braves, losing two straight for the first time in 17 games, fell to 27-28, their worst record this late in the season since having an identical record on June 6, 1992.
After allowing two runs and three hits in the first, Myers (4-3) gave up just three more hits in his seven innings. He walked four and struck out five.
Tim Worrell struck out the side in the ninth for his eighth save.
Russ Ortiz (6-5) lost for the first time in three starts, allowing nine hits, five runs and three walks in six innings. The right-hander struck out eight.
Reds 6, Expos 3, 10 innings
CINCINNATI -- Ken Griffey Jr. hit his 496th homer and Adam Dunn had two of his own, including a three-run shot in the 10th inning.
Griffey hit his 496th homer in the fourth and Dunn followed with a solo shot, putting right-hander Paul Wilson in position to improve to 8-0. But closer Danny Graves let the Expos tie it in the ninth with their first set of back-to-back homers this season.
Dunn connected for his 17th off Chad Cordero (1-1) with two outs in the 10th.
Cardinals 10, Astros 4
ST. LOUIS -- Jim Edmonds overcame a sore ribcage to drive in four runs and throw out a runner at the plate.
Edmonds almost didn't start after straining a ribcage muscle on his right side during batting practice the previous night, but chose to play -- helping the Cardinals win their sixth in a row.
Albert Pujols went 4-for-5, and the Cardinals had a season-high 19 hits to move nine games over .500. and remain a game behind Cincinnati.
American League
Rangers 8, Yankees 1
NEW YORK -- Juan Dominguez shut down the New York Yankees for his first major league win, and Brad Fullmer homered and scored a career-high four runs in the Texas Rangers' victory.
Mark Teixeira also connected and drove in three runs as Texas teed off on Jon Lieber (4-3), handing the Yankees only their second loss in 12 games. New York had won four straight, all come-from-behind victories.
Fullmer homered leading off the second, then doubled, singled and walked to reach safely in his first four plate appearances. He knocked in two runs and is 9-for-15 (.600) with three homers lifetime against Lieber.
Dominguez (1-1), called up from Triple-A Oklahoma on May 29, allowed only Ruben Sierra's fifth-inning home run. Facing a lineup missing Derek Jeter, he pitched eight impressive innings, giving up five hits, striking out five and walking one. The rookie retired 11 in a row during one stretch.
Athletics 4, Blue Jays 0
OAKLAND, Calif. -- Tim Hudson pitched an eight-hitter to give the Athletics a much-needed win from a starting pitcher.
Scott Hatteberg hit a three-run homer in the third inning off Pat Hentgen (2-5) and Bobby Crosby added a solo shot in the fourth. That proved to be more than enough for Hudson (6-2), who improved to 69-2 in his career when getting at least four runs of support.
Hudson's win snapped a seven-game run of no-decisions for Oakland's starters, which tied the major league record. The starters had pitched well in the stretch, posting a 1.84 ERA, but spotty relief and a lack of hitting hurt Oakland.
Tigers 6, Twins 0
MINNEAPOLIS -- Gary Knotts pitched three-hit ball into the eighth inning and Craig Monroe drove in four runs, leading Detroit over Minnesota.
Ivan Rodriguez went 4-for-5 with four singles, and Carlos Guillen and Carlos Pena each homered for Detroit, which snapped a two-game losing skid. Steve Colyer and Ugueth Urbina finished the three-hitter, the Tigers fourth shutout of the season.
Knotts (3-1) held Minnesota hitless until Lew Ford doubled with one out in the third. Knotts struck out two and walked four in 7 2-3 innings, Colyer got one out in the eighth and Urbina pitched the ninth.
Seth Greisinger (2-5), making his first start against his former team, allowed four runs and eight hits in 5 1-3 innings. He struck out five and walked one.
Mariners 4, White Sox 2
SEATTLE -- Bret Boone ended a 1-for-19 slump with a tiebreaking, two-run homer in the fifth and Ryan Franklin pitched seven strong innings to help the Mariners defeat Chicago.
Boone hit his ninth homer of the season off Scott Schoeneweis (5-3) after John Olerud walked with one out in the fifth. The 438-foot shot landed in the second deck in left field.
Franklin (3-4) won for the first time since May 7 and ended his two-game losing streak. He allowed two runs on six hits and three walks, and had four strikeouts.
Red Sox 8, Royals 4
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- David Ortiz, Mark Bellhorn and Kevin Youkilis hit two-run home runs to help Boston snap a four-game losing streak.
Curt Schilling (7-3) gave up a 445-foot home run to Mike Sweeney on his ninth pitch of the game and then shut out the Royals until Benito Santiago's sacrifice fly with one out in the seventh. Winning his third straight decision, Schilling gave up three runs on six hits in seven innings.

As a fathful attendee of this festival for the past 12 years I am very disappointed with the quality of the entertainment this year. I mean Taylor Dayne? Belinda Carlisle? Lawd have mercy! With this line up they can bet on record low attendance. None of my out of state friends want to go this year.Hide replies
It should be "Lord have mercy!"
@insight..You have to ask the most important questions...there are only 3.
First...how much money do we have to hire entertainment and...Next...who is available and lastly...who wants to play this festival.
The answer?....well a couple are in your comment
Hey! They are both excellent performers!
Yeah, the fact that 25 miles of I-94 separates the haters from the people celebrating.
What happened to all the previous posts?Hide replies
Likely that they decided to re-post this article with no comments as to purge the heated debate going on. It would be nice to see "freeedomofspeech7" voice their rationalization for their comment about pridefest being a disgrace to Milwaukee.
Anyone that doesn't like it doesn't have to go. Question though, other than certain stand up comics like Ellen (who's a stitch) and offensive ones like Lisa Laminelli, are there music groups that appeal to the gay crowd moreso or do they still prefer the same acts as straights. I gotta tell you though, the majority of new musical groups I see on Leno/letterman are not my cup of tea. This older f*art still prefers 70s and 80s music. Don't know if Talyor Dayne can still belt it out, but "Every Beat" was a musical highlight of the decade.
Wow, this might just be a first here on JSonline Chick Young a person posting who knows enough about english grammer to know how to interpret my screen name.
So, a civil question garners 3 thumbs down? At least brianna posted a civil response. Nice to know there is one gracious person amongst the crowd.
The music lineup this year is not the best they've had. Someone really needs to speak to the entertainment person as these acts only cater to an older 80's crowd. Having prior acts like Leanne Rhymes and Natasha Bedingfield as well as national comedic acts really pulled crowds in from all walks of life. The weekend is still meant as a festival of diversity, but I'm afraid the lineup may impact their attendance more this year as well their bottom line. This was a strike out in that regard. However, Pridefest still remains one of the largest and best diversity and equality festivals in the nation. I frequent Summerfest and others and anyone else who does will echo that this is tame and probably more welcoming.
Has there ever been a tsunami in Lake Michigan?Hide replies
has there ever been a thought in your head that didn't die of lonliness?
I love that we have pride fest! THAT is what GOING FORWARD should mean in Wisconsin! NOT this taking away our rights as US citizens like some newly re-elected official! Don't like it, don't go!
The entertainment line up this year is severely lacking. I would rather them have the festival for only one day if it means bringing in better quality entertainment. The past five years have been great entertainment wise but this year is a major drop off. They must be really struggling financialing to bring in has beens like Talor Dayne and Belinda Carlisle. I guess that line up is appealing if your over 40 but what about everyone else?

Hi ladies,
I can't sleep (Indian Ocean time zone, 5:30am here.) Been up since 2am. I have a gynco appointment this morning at 10.
I'm 14dpo (I think) only symptom are slightly swollen boobs. I haven't tested because I have a history of long cycles and too often have been dissappointed with BFNs only to get AF on CD 45.
Actually have an appointment to discuss test results b/c this is cycle 11. Wonder what DR's going to say? Should I have tested? Is this going to be a waste of a dr visit?
Trying to not get excited, keep telling myself it's just AF getting into gear but I know I'll be dissappointed again if it's BFN, even with all my head prepping.

Welcome to the
USF Ataxia Research Center
Symposium highlights new research by industry leaders seeking first treatment for Friedreich's ataxia
Hosted by FARA and the USF Ataxia Research Center, the annual scientific symposium emphasizes a patient-centered approach to research
For the first time in its seven-year history, the Friedreich's Ataxia Scientific Symposium brought together several pharmaceutical industry leaders to discuss preclinical and clinical studies. The companies are all attacking Friedreich's ataxia (FA) on different fronts with the same goal in mind: to get the first treatment for the rare, but devastating, neuromuscular disease approved and on the market as soon as possible.
The Sept. 17 symposium, hosted by the Friedreich's Ataxia Research Alliance (FARA) and the USF Ataxia Research Center, drew an audience totaling more than 500, both live at the USF Marshall Center Ballroom and viewing the event in real-time through Ustream's CureFA channel.
The symposium featured a discussion by leading representatives of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies working with FARA and academia to conduct new research attacking Friedreich's ataxia on several fronts.
Representatives and supporters of FARA, the research community, and patient and their families – many whom attended FARA's Energy Ball gala on Saturday evening, Sept. 19 — were welcomed by USF President Judy Genshaft.
The translational center of excellence at USF is "one of the most active in the world, testing potential new drugs for Friedreich's ataxia," President Genshaft said. "We are unstoppable in the fight for a cure for FA."
In the last seven years, the staff of the USF Ataxia Research Center, focused on identifying and developing effective treatments for inherited ataxia disorders, has expanded to eight, including two clinicians, a fellow, nurses and research coordinators. Center Director Theresa Zesiewicz, MD, professor of neurology, gave an overview of the center's eight clinical trials — six active and two finishing up. USF, one of 10 sites in the international FARA Collaborative Clinical Research Network, is recruiting patients for two of the three trials presented by pharmaceutical industry leaders at the symposium. The USF center is also working with Agilis, one of the biopharmaceutical companies at the symposium, to develop their gene therapy protocol, expected to be submitted in 2016 to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
USF President Judy Genshaft welcomed attendees to the USF Tampa campus for the seventh annual scientific symposium "Understanding Energy for A Cure," hosted by the Friedreich's Ataxia Research Alliance and the USF Ataxia Research Center.
Friedreich's ataxia is triggered by a single genetic defect that limits production of frataxin, a protein vital to the function of the energy-producing factories, or mitochondria, of the cell. This leads to a variety of symptoms including neurodegeneration that can cause muscle weakness and loss of coordination and balance, energy deprivation and fatigue, vision impairment, slurred speech, aggressive scoliosis, diabetes and life-shortening cardiac disease. Most young people diagnosed with Friedreich's ataxia require a cane, walker or wheelchair by their teens or early 20s. There are currently no approved treatments.
FARA President Ron Bartek and Executive Director Jennifer Farmer spoke about the progress in Friedreich's ataxia research worldwide and the value of the organization's 2,600-member patient registry in bringing together all its stakeholders.
FARA's Executive Director Jennifer Farmer and President Ron Bartek.
Featured speaker Sanjay Bidichandani, MBBS, PhD, the chair of pediatric medical genetics at the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine and member of the FARA Board of Directors, was part of the team that first identified the Friedreich's ataxia gene in 1996. Fueled by resources and partnerships cultivated by FARA, Dr. Bidichandani said, the understanding of the disease process advanced relatively quickly since that genetic discovery and has yielded robust expansion of investigational drugs in the treatment pipeline.
A panel moderated by Dr. Bidichandani featured representatives from four biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies conducting Friedreich's ataxia research in collaboration with FARA and academia – Jeffrey Sherman, MD, executive vice president for research and development and chief medical officer, Horizon Pharma; Jodi Cook, PhD, vice president of operations, Agilis Biotherapeutics; Colin Myer, MD, chief medical officer, Reata Pharmaceuticals; and Robert De Jager, MD, chief medical officer, Retrotope. Their newly activated studies cover a range of therapeutic targets, including finding ways to boost frataxin production, improving mitochondrial function, reducing mitochondrial damage and oxidative stress, and delivering gene therapy.
Featured speaker Dr. Sanjay Bidichandani, a member of FARA's Board of Directors, was part of the group that discovered the gene for Friedreich's ataxia in 1996. He gave an overview of the tremendous progress in less than 20 years leading to a robust treatment pipeline.
"FARA has really galvanized the patient community, academia, industry and even regulators to develop better insights into this disease and how we can all work together," said Horizon Pharma's Dr. Sherman. "At the end of the day, they've really brought to the forefront the importance of patient centricity and the voice of the patient in clinical and basic science research."
Horizon Pharma has repurposed a drug already approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for use in treating two other rare genetic disorders, chronic granulomatous disease and severe malignant osteopetrosis. The company recently launched a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to test the safety and effectiveness of Actimmune® (interferon gamma-1b) in improving neurological function in 90 Friedreich's patients at four U.S. sites. Previous research indicated that Actimmune®, which mimics a protein made by the body to help prevent infection, increases frataxin levels to reduce nerve cell depletion and muscle atrophy.
The symposium brought together representatives and supporters of FARA and the research community with patients in their families.
Agilis focuses on engineering and delivering therapeutic DNA to replace the damaged frataxin gene. Preclinical studies are employing a safe virus to optimally deliver the corrective gene to key targets, allowing safe and effective long-term expression of the frataxin protein.
Earlier this year Reata began a Phase 2 randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial testing the safety and effectiveness of various dose levels of the oral medication RTA 408 in treating Friedreich's ataxia. Known as the MOXle study, the trial is enrolling patients at sites worldwide, including USF. Preclinical studies have shown that RTA 408 directly activates antioxidative pathways to improve mitochondrial function.
This month USF enrolled the first of 18 patients in Retrotope's 28-day randomized, double-blind controlled trial evaluating the safety of the investigational oral drug RT001 in ambulatory patients with Friedreich's ataxia. USF and the University of California Los Angeles will be the only two sites for the Phase 1 study. The compound RT001 is a stabilized fatty acid shown to shut down the toxic free radical degradation of polyunsaturated fats, an essential component of cell membranes, and reduces further damage to the mitochondria.
Jade Perry, a member of the patient panel, was accompanied by her service dog Bo, a labradoodle.
The scientific panel was followed by a question-and-answer session on patients' perspectives of living with Friedreich's ataxia. The panel was moderated by symposium host Clifton Gooch, MD, professor and chair of the Department of Neurology at the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine.
The four patient participants, all diagnosed in their teens or early 20s, emphasized a common theme – that they choose every day to carry on and live life to its fullest despite the challenges of Friedreich's ataxia.
Jade Perry, 25, was accompanied to the stage by the service dog she trained, a labradoodle named Bo. Perry, who is finishing up a master's degree in education from Coastal Carolina University, recently got her first full-time teaching job.
"I love riding my trike and try to keep my schedule packed so FA can't slow me down," she said.
Kendall Harvey, center, was diagnosed with later-stage Friedreich's ataxia three years ago at age 25. "In spite of my diagnosis, my family and I are living life to the fullest," she said.
Kendall Harvey, 28, diagnosed at age 25 with later-onset Friedreich's ataxia, still walks unassisted. She and her husband live in Austin, TX, with their 11-month old son Brooks.
Harvey, who participated in volleyball, track and other sports as a youth, said she noticed problems with agility and balance while taking dance lessons in preparation for her 2013 wedding. She chalked it up to getting a little older or "being out of shape." But continuing symptoms finally led her to a neurologist who ran a battery of tests, culminating with a full genetic panel.
"The first time I heard of FA was the day I was diagnosed," Harvey said. "FA has changed my perspective. Now, I live more in the moment than worrying about all the things in the future.
"On the days when I stumble a little more, my speech is slurred and I'm angry that my body is not behaving the way I'd like, my son is a fantastic reminder that I'm still capable of amazing things. He's very humbling."
In his closing remarks Dr. Clifton Gooch, professor and chair of neurology at the USF Health Morsani College of Medicine, encouraged continued collaboration in the fight to find effective treatments and a cure for Friedreich's ataxia.
USF's Dr. Gooch closed the symposium by emphasizing the tremendous progress made in the research and development of lead drug candidates for Friedreich's ataxia and encouraging all to continue to carry on the fight against the disease with laser focus.
"When pharma becomes engaged, that means the research is good enough to put smart money behind the disease to get a drug to market," Dr. Gooch said. "There is more than just a glimmer of hope. We're on the cusp of great possibilities… We look forward to the day when Friedreich's ataxia will become a historical footnote like smallpox.
