Why is Andrew MacClean who sadly passed away some years ago still identified as a moderator here?

Thanks for pointing this out. Andrew sadly passed away just a week after we lost our 5 year old daughter, and I had no interest in maintaining the forum at that point. I've now removed Andrew's name as moderator, but of course retained his 7000+ posts.

Andrew was the 1st person to be blunt with me about my diagnoses of KC back in 2009, to this day and forever i will cherish his honesty and ability to put a smile on my face even on the worse days with KC.

His legacy will no doubt for many be his wisdom n empathy.
