Every time I talk to one from here

[Guest guest]

I get so much from the chats and emails and the friendships, but then

every time I talk to someone from here on the phone, I just melt. I

just got off from talking to a very special lady on the board and have

talked to others and its shocking sometimes how two people who only

share a monster disease initially can get on the phone and just always

find themselves uplifted. In my case, I'm generally talking to someone

who has been dealing with the disease so much longer than I and I end

up thinking " ok.....I want to be just like her when i reach that point

and I can, it can be done, and my life will still have value and

pleasure. " From the people on this board I almost start thinking that

perhaps except for myself sneaking in there is something about PF that

it only hits the most incredible special people in the world.

Dearest Bruce, You have just begun to understand how important this group is in your life. I read and laugh and cry everyday. I feel so connected and could sit and talk with anyone of our group for hours. Just wait until you do get to meet some of us. Nothing like it.

be said again today as it is cold and rainy outside but warm and cozy

here.
