And to those of you who have taken the time to submit an article or press release on behalf of your association, college, or organization, or an individual doctor or student of chiropractic who wrote to us, concerned about your profession -- a very sincere thank you.

And last, but certainly not least -- those very special people to whom I owe a great debt of gratitude for their encouragement, belief, and support: my wonderful wife, Jill, and our two children, Joshua and John-David.

More than likely, you have those in your life who have made a difference. Your family, employees, and colleagues. This might just be a good time to let them know just how much they mean to you and how much you appreciate them.
