Ib, I'm not saying he doesn't have it, he probably does. It is a completely fucked up disease. So little is known about it or its cause. (At least when we were in the thick of it, with FIL)

One thing is that it has its own trajectory which can vary enormously. Some folks can be stable for years and other can degenerate rapidly.

Your man Jason seems particularly insightful and wise beyond his years. I think it is awesome that he essentially told the doctors and experts to go pound salt and started himself on his spiritual path. Having read Yogananda's books, I'd not be surprised a lick if Jason lived to be 90.

Thanks for the link to his site, I'm inspired; you've got a great hero there.
