Everyone ... Take a Chill Pill

[Jay62]

Ok..

Everyone... Take a chill pill! The behavior on this board by some in the past few days needs to stop! We are behaving like kids on the school yard.

This forum has been my family, for real, for the past few months. I don't post much but I visit often.

With so many different personalities on this forum, everyone is not going to get along! We all are going to have good days and bad days!

Can we agree to disagree respectfully! Can we make our points without insulting each other!

It is the holiday season. So many of us are no longer with our loved ones! Many of us come in here to escape the loneliness in our lives. Our lives have been turned upside down.

I appreciate each and every one of you and what you bring to the forum.

Some of us bring the intellect to discuss and disseminate information on how to treat this awful disease. Some of us bring the comedy and humor to help take our minds off of things for a minute. Some of us bring a listening ear and a shoulder to cry on. We all bring something. But whatever you bring, bring it with respect and/or kindness. We may not all like or agree with everything put out here on the board but be mindful that we are all in this together. If you don't have something good to say about someone, then just don't say it! Period!

Every other day, I feel that I am not going to make it through the day. You guys have been the ones to get me through. I'm trying to make it through the Holidays. Even though I may not post, I'm here. I AM HERE!

There are new people signing on to this forum everyday. Do you remember how you felt when you first got this awful crap, realizing that you got some fricking bugs on you that you can't see -- the doctors, the DOP diagnoses, losing everything you had, and the list goes on. And, then coming in here and walking into this mess! We have good information and good people on here to help newbies started on trying to beat this crap. But how can we do this, when there's ALWAYS some fricking drama going on. It's like a bad soap opera! DRAMA! DRAMA! DRAMA!

For those of us who do want to leave, then leave -- quietly. No need to send out invitations and announcements for your departure. You don't have to request publicly for an account to be closed. Just don't sign in!

If you want to stay, then stay -- chill out and be respectful. Everyone has valuable input and it's much appreciated.

Franky and M-D-R members, I apologize if my post is out of order or adds to the drama, it's the holidays and another holiday without my kids, grandkids, friends and the former life I knew. So this is all I got.

((((Hugs to Each and Everyone of You))))
