South Riding, Va.

My concerns and interests related to my health -- as well as the health of my family, friends and work colleagues -- include cancer (prevention, detection, treatment and cures), high blood pressure, thyroid problems, root canals and dental needs including orthodontic work, vaccinations, weight and exercise, menopause and puberty and growing pains. These are the issues that affect my life on a daily basis. Nowhere on the list is reparative therapy to help this happy and healthy lesbian of 22 years change to something I am not nor want to be.

The Health section should focus on the legitimate health issues that face its readers every day. An article about "homosexual reparative therapy" is not only a slap in the face to us happy gay people but to all your readers who look to the Health section for informative stories about real health issues.
