This is the affidavit and the Brief for Stay of Board's Discipline from my attorney for our appeal of the Board's discipline. This should help to answer some of the questions some people have been asking me.

I continue to receive copies of letters sent to the Governor, phone calls and e-mails supporting me. I appreciate everyone's support and interest. I have had some DPM's and other MD's in similar situations contact me about their problems and I have offered to share some of my strategies that have and haven't worked.

Please keep up the pressure. I think it's important that my local friends and patients as well as physicians on a national level make certain that people are aware of the fact that they are concerned that this should have never been allowed to go this far. Please read these. I think everyone who has read this information has felt that most of us take a lot for granted in life. I would like to thank the many people who are sincerely concerned for my well- being.
