my parents. On this ward some patients were confined to their beds and an average of one patient died every ten days. This ward was a mixture of elderly and younger active patients. One afternoon I again attended 'staff meeting' and I was asked questions by several doctors regarding the reasons I felt I was well enough to be released. Following this I was granted a one year convalescent leave from the Institute.

"After my one year leave from the Institute I received my certificate of discharge from the superintendent. Due to my experiences there and the help I have received from my rela-

tives and friends I have been fortunate that I haven't had to return to the Institute as a patient again.

"Having found an organization that publishes a magazine like ONE is sort of like a dream come true. I hope that the homosexual trend of living becomes more well known in the future despite the opposition this way of life meets.

"I am glad I found the advertisement about ONE magazine several months ago and that I subscribed to the magazine at that time because the articles, stories, and letters from the other subscribers in the magazine have also been very helpful."
