Re: Re: opinion vs. fact

[Guest guest]

Cheryl,

I agree with on this one...Don't go! I, too, value your

opinion/expertise on such matters and I also appreciate you dispelling

" opinionated myths " that are made to look like facts. Thanx.

This board is to help, not hurt - this includes the feelings of others. So,

please people, don't take it personal if your information is shown to be

unfactual (is that a word?). We're all here for the same purpose - to help and

to be helped.

Smooches

Re: opinion vs. fact

Hi Cheryl,

Don't go away - the board needs people with good knowledge like you

to dispel some of the more common myths out there. I share your

frustrations too at times.

For my part, when I get a chance, I'll update the geocities site with

some information regarding use of Boost/Ensure, and dairy products.

If you want to send me anything formal, I'd be glad to post it,

otherwise I'll just pull your posts on the topic if that's ok with

you.

As I've said on the geocities info site: " everything you see here is

a suggestion only, based on others' experiences. Everyone's

experience is a little different. You use this advice at your own

risk. You should discuss important issues with your orthodontist and

oral surgeon. That's what you pay them the big bucks for. "

Cheryl, I think you've still got lots to offer this group. Don't go!
