Re: Fw: TOO MUCH NEGATIVITY !!!

[Guest guest]

hi bill, i, for one, find this the one place i can complain about my illness

with people who understand and don't tell me to just take a Tylenol or just live

with it. talking with people who have never experienced nerve or back pain,

they just have no clue. i am also here to learn and be supportive to others. we

all have different needs and i have found the people of this group to be very

informative and supportive while being compassionate. some of us are alone or do

not have family that is compassionate and this group is where we can turn to

chat with others that suffer with pain issues like we do. neck and back pain is

negative in most peoples lives but here we find hope and support. just my 2

cents, wyld
