Dear Phil

The reason I say that I can prove that I am disabled is that I realise that
some people might say that they are disabled just to get 'look-up's' rather
than doing them themselves at the library and that they are more healthy
than most of us!!

I wouldn't want anyone to think that I am taking advantage of any kind soul
that would do a look up for me and, therefore, I say that I will prove I am
disabled rather than lazy!!

I appreciate any help than anybody gives me and I think anyone that gives
help on these lists are wonderful, helpful people!

Best wishes to everyone on their searches and I hope that the helpfulness
continues.
