Doting son lost travel chance brain cells into the brain of a 52-year-old man who had Parkinson’s Disease for 20 years. The United States National Institutes of Health set up a panel of clergy, lawyers and doctors in September to determine whether fetal tissue obtained through abortion is acceptable for transplants. A moratorium was imposed at the same time. The panel, set up at the request of the federal government, will have its statement ready next month. “What happens when politicians say, ‘Don’t pursue this line of research, don’t use federal money to pursue it?’ Do we automatically say we won’t proceed?” Freed asked the meeting this week. Members of the audience suggested defiance of a voluntary moratorium could lead to government control of medical research. So far about 35 fetal tissue implants have been placed in the brains of people with Parkinson’s Disease in several countries. None has been performed in Canada, but guidelines are on the drawing board of the ethics committee of the Medical Research Council, which distributes public funds for medical research in Canada. Dear Ann Landers: I am writing to warn others of a mistake that my husband and I made. When “Larry” and I retired seven years ago, we started to plan some wonderfal trips we couldn’t afford in our younger years. Three weeks after we talked to our travel agent, Larry’s 90-year-old mother suffered a stroke and had to be put in a nursing home. We are the only relatives who live in this city, although his brothers and sisters come to visit at least once a year. Our long-dreamed-of trips were postponed until “Mother was gone.” Larry spent part of every day with her. I was not resentful, in fact I was proud that he was such a devoted son. Last March my darling Larry died of a heart attack. He was 67. Mother, at 97, is still alive in the nursing home. Soon I will be making those trips by myself, and they won’t be half as much fan. Ann Landers So, tell your readers, Ann, not to put their lives on hold, waiting for an elderly relative to die. A lot can happen that you don’t expect. I am an authority on this subject who will be — Traveling Alone From Omaha. Dear Omaha: There’s a too of sound advice in your letter. No way can I improve on it, so I will just second the motion and say thanks for the wisdom. Dear Ann Landers: I read the letter from the girl who held a {pudge against her father because she felt he hadn’t fought hard enough for his visitation rights. Actually her mother hated him and did everything in her power to keep him away. I thought of my own son “Rob.” He was 9 when I last saw him and would soon be 16. It was no big deal at the time, but as the years passed I began to realize how much I missed that boy. I thought often of contacting him but decided it would be awkward because I would be a stranger to him. That letter in your column changed my mind. I decided to write to Rob and I sent him a copy of it. I said I didn’t want to cause a major upheaval in his life, but if he wanted to see me I would meet him any place, any time. He phoned the day he received my letter. We set a date to meet The last time I’d seen him he was a little boy and I had to squat down to button his collar. Now, here stands, before my very eyes, a six-foot-tall person — a terrific human being! We spent the day asking each other questions and becoming reacquainted. He met his grandparents, who hadn’t seen him since he was a baby. They were thrilled. Rob came up to see me again last weekend, and I’m sure we will continue to see each other on a regular basis now. Thanks, Ann Landers, for one heck of a present. - M.T.S., Fort Worth, Tex. Dear Tex: Don’t thank me. Thank Rob’s mother. She’s the one who turned out that “iterrific human being.” I’m thrilled for all of you and delighted that my column brought you together.
