Guest guest Posted July 27, 2004 Report Share Posted July 27, 2004 Hi Annette, Nice to meet you & have you here with us. You've sure got a bundle of stuff causing you pain. Most of here do as well. We also know what it's like to be ignored or neglected by others in our lives & even online if we " complain " too much about our aches & pains or make " excuses " (to them) for not doing this or that. So I, for one, am very grateful to be able to express myself here & complain or whine or vent as much as I want to. Others do it too. Also there's a ton of information about Rx drugs & other helpful things I've learned in a very short time from other folks here. It's a great place to be.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 Thanks for welcoming me Caroline. It is difficult to find people who understand chronic " invisible " illnesses and great when I can find a place that is safe to talk about my feelings, vent and it is okay to have problems. It's great to laugh but we need others to listen as well when we are hurting. What is odd is, now when I have some good news to share people don't want to hear it. (like I said I had a baby last year instead of cancer which was my diagnosis) What, they only want the bad news, why not share in the good too? I finally get a miracle in my life and nobody could handle it. I was scared too but we are doing fine. Go figure?? Anyway thanks Caroline, glad to be here Annette Caroline Pollak wrote: Hi Annette, Nice to meet you & have you here with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 28, 2004 Report Share Posted July 28, 2004 Well, Annette, I congratulate you on your newborn. That is good news indeed. I also had a baby who weighed only 2 lbs, 14 oz, my fourth. I delivered her against great odds & great risk to my life. But she's still alive & is gorgeous, nearing here forties now. I wish you & your little one all the best. Nothing can ever take the place of giving birth & having kids in one's life. They're hard work to raise but my four are my life's greatest blessings. Many blessings to you & yours, Caroline Annette Rose wrote: Thanks for welcoming me Caroline.
