Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 I understand you are a really great researcher mom. You do not have the right to attack a fellow mom. You have no idea what she as a mom goes through. You especially should not mention anything about her ability to recover her children or other children. You have no idea how hard she as a mom has worked. I take big big offence at your comments in personally attacking this mom or any other mom. She has a right not to like a physician. I do not agree with doctor bashing and Tami has made it clear that is not allowed. But to Mom bash on this list is even more unacceptable because it is so very very personal. We are trying to heal our babies and to make comments such as these is so very very hurtful. I realize you want to defend a physician you have respect for and I hear your words but to criticize and bash another mom who is a great researcher in her own right that is just heart breaking to me. I am sorry but I feel you owe this mom an apology because you have verbally assaulted her and in a public forum. I write this on this forum publically only because I want others to know that fellow mom bashing is unacceptable.

Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 > Dear Kristie: Please don't keep this thing going by asking for an apology. Let's all agree to disagree. These forum battles that happen occasionally in all forums, are very uncomfortable for all involved. I just don't see anyone benefitting from keeping this going. Both Tami and Kathy have many friends who are now entering the battle in support. Well, I think that's great to have support, but I really feel we should end this thing as soon as possible and move on. I know its embarrassing and very uncomfortable emotionally (I have had a couple of battles myself), but I learned my mental happiness is more important than battling. Its ok to have different beliefs. Let us all go on with our own beliefs and share in a way that is helpful. Think of all the parents who come to these forums. They don't want to see this; nor sift through this to get to helpful information. I want to apologize to everyone for everyone. We are wasting valuable time on something that can't possibly go anywhere. Some battles are actually helpful for learning, but I just don't see that here. With all due respect, everyone on both sides of the battle is putting in efforts to help children, now lets do it in a way that everyone benefits, by sharing in a helpful manner. Our kids need us. We will get much more accomplished by working together than by working against each other. Love and success to all, Heidi N > > I understand you are a really great researcher mom.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Kristi, I'm really sorry if I disappoint you, but I stand for every word I said. I feel very sad for what Kathy is going thru, but that does not give her the right to talk bad about Dr. Cowden, MD or anyone she doesn't know or has prove to sustain her words, he is not just the doctor that helped me to recover my children, but a friend of mine. I didn't bash her at all as the person she may be, but towards her attitude. She is the one that should reflexsionate about what she has said and apologize in public to what she said about Dr. Cowden. I have also gone thru very difficult times and pain even so I keep being positive, fighting for what its right and helping others. We as mothers and sometimes as moderators of yahoo groups have the responsibility to make sober comments, especially when we are talking about people that has a career and reputation to protect; our disgraces cannot and should not be use as pretexts to do irresponsible statements. I hope you can understand my point of view as well and I repeat I am not attacking her as a person or mother, but her attitude. I may have sound to aggressive but I am a human and injustice really inflates me. . > > > I understand you are a really great researcher mom. You do not have > the right to attack a fellow mom.
