I found this through online searches, wondering how he was doing. I got to know Allan online about 5-8 years ago, meeting him through a game called Urban Assault, and chatting late into many nights. He was a leader in the fan community for several years, full of playfulness and wit. I wrote a brief memory in honor of him on the current Urban Assault online forum. http://urbanassault.forumsvibe.com/viewtopic.php?p=2393&mforum=urbanassault#2393 Jessica, I hope you see this. I remember he really appreciated you. Thank you. Take care. ~"Odyssey" My God. I found this through online searches, wondering how he was doing.

His death, while a sad event, is actually a reprieve for one living in constant pain. May Mr. Glenn rest in peace. His life was one of suffering: an unfortuante allotment to him by his genes.

Instead of simply mourning their deaths, we should also focus our energies on rejoicing that they lived at all. The world was a better place for having him in it, and we should do what we can to ensure that others like him will be able to stay longer. I'm on the tight budget of the typical university student, so I unfortunately can't afford much in the way of donations. Instead, I've decided to focus my energies on fighting back against those who try to ban stem cell research (which could potentially be very helpful in creating organs for transplant). Will my voice make a difference? I don't know, but it's still worth the fight. I've always been a fan of an "Irish wake" manner of dealing with deaths.

I'm told that this is a charity which helps individual sufferers as well as promoting medical research, which is something that was important to Allan. I'll be making a donation to them this holiday season in his memory, and I encourage others to do likewise.
