Just wondering if people read in the news recently about new work with
cartilage for the treatment of osteoarthritis? It often seems to me that
people with OA don't get much in the way of potential good news, so this
sounds interesting (even though a way off).

Sorry that I haven't been posting much, but I'm finding it hard to compete
in the league table for computer time lately. Now that the boys are older,
they are both after time on it, plus John, and I am not very good late at
night. Hopefully things will ease as we are getting a new pc just for them
for xmas.
Brief update - nothing much to say really, feeling quite well apart from the
occasional niggle. The Enbrel is working out well at just once a week, my
new knee is great (roll on the next one).

Good the hear from you. Even better to know that your knee is OK.
I know that there are people at the RNOH who have been culturing
cartilage cells, with the aim to develop grafting, for some time. Looks
as tho the Bristol people might have gone one better.
I guess that it will all be too late for some of us tho.
Christmas wishes to all.
