I 1 77 70 an IKY Dear Ann Landers: Recently I took a car trip with a dear friend (who is expecting) and her little daughter and my two sons.

Suddenly, in the middle of nowhere, our car went off the road, skidded and flipped over. The car was a total loss. But God was looking out for us. My friend received only a minor cut and a few bruises, with no damage to her unborn child. I suffered a bad cut on my arm.

Miraculously, there wasn't a scratch on the children. I want to use your column as a giant thank-you card to dozens of people whose names I will never know, but not one of whom I will ever forget. We could not believe the number of people who stopped to help us. There are so many we owe so much to: The young couple who pulled us all out of the car and risked their own lives (cars have been known to catch fire and explode); the truck driver who called on his CB for an ambulance; the helpful law enforcement officers; the ambulance attendants; the kind and gentle medical personnel; the cab driver who stopped and offered to take us to the motel. The motel people were terrific.

"Don't bother to register," they said. "Come right in." A passerby helped us retrieve our belongings from the car at the wrecking yard, gas station attendants and other total strangers did everything possible to calm the kids. Those wonderful people gave me new faith in the goodness of man. And now I want to tell all your readers to celebrate LIFE. You will never know how precious life is until you come close to losing it.

Everyone has some kind of problem, but no mater how miserable your life may seem at times, you should think of the alternative to life. Today you are alive. You are able to feel, to think, to walk, to talk, to love. You are a glorious miracle. Celebrate that miracle, and all your problems will come into perspective.

You will live each day to its fullest, will be able to tell your family and friends "I love you" with spontaneity and joy. You will come to realize, with humility and wonder, just how beautiful your existence can be. Thank you, Ann, for letting me share my thoughts today. You may sign my real name, because I want all those beloved strangers to know me, even if I'll never know them. Much Love Hope White Dear Hope: Here's yoar letter.

What ai upper! Especially at a tune when so many people are part-ting extra locks oa their doors, lnftalliag alarms, buying giard dogs aid staying tstslde after dark. It's bearteslaf to know that people can aid do rise to the occasion wbei a stranger la hi troable. The spontaneity nggests to me, at least, that people are basically good. And what better proof than the letter yon have written. The Instinctive hamaa response to come to the rescue of someone la troable has been thwarted these last few years became so many of is have come to fear for oar owa safety.

LAMB My physician has prescribed vitamin B-1Z injections for pernicious anemia. He Is also giving me multiple vitamin Injections (or nerve damage to my legs and feet Is there a liklihood that there are other vitamins that might not be assimilated by my stomach? Which would be the most likely ones and what type of procedure is required to determine this? DEAR READER Vitamin B-12 is unique in that it requires a substance manufactured by your stomach for its absorption. This substance is called intrinsic factor.

If your stomach doesn't manufacture enough intrinsic factor, the B-12 you swallow as pills or in food will not be absorbed. The lack of B-12 in your system leads to pernicious anemia. Th.il. of course, is why B-12 is given as a shot rather than a pill. The absence of intrinsic factor will not affect the absorption of any other vitamins.

If you are eating a normal balanced diet you should be getting enough other vitamins. The best way to test (or vitamin deficiencies Is from a blood sample. Your story Is particularly interesting because of the "nerve damage" In your legs and feet. A B-12 deficiency ran cause degeneration of certain nerve cells that affect the nerves to the legs. You can use folic acid to correct anemias from 1112 deficiency but folic acid will not prevent the nerve cell damage that affects the feet and legs.

It extremely Important for people with pernicious anemia to get B-12 to avoid this complication. A B-12 dcliriency can cause degeneration of nerve cells in the spinal cord and even nerve cells in the brain. If the cell has been loo severely damaged the problem cannot be corrected. Permanent walking problems can occur, You'll need the information In The Health Letter number 4 5. Vitamin B-12.

DEAR DR. LAMB I would like to know more about the differ aces La smoking cigarettes and marijuana. Do they have the same odds of ci using long cancer? What does pot do to the lungs? I'm a woman with (oar small children ander the age of 4. 1 have twins who are tlx months old. Pot relaxes me after I get the children to bed.

I have never smoked cigarettes because I am afraid I might get cancer. Have people gotten cancer of the loop from smoking pot? DEAR READER It takes IS to 20 years to see the cancers caused by many environmental (actors including smoking cigarettes. We have not seen enough people who have smoked pot that long to know what the actual figures will be. BUT we do know that smoking marijuana produces 50 percent more polyaromatlc hydrocarbons than cigarettes. These are the substances that are associated with lung cancer.

Good studies show severe changes In the lungs from smoking marijuana. Smoking just one joint reduces the ability of the lungs to inhale and exhale a maximum amount of air to the same extent as 16 cigarettes. A good estimate would be that people who smoke marijuana (or equal periods of time will have more lung problems than cigarette smokers. reports to the commission The Montana Advisory Committee includes Angela Russell.
