[Guest guest]

Heidi,

Thank you so much for your wonderful e-mail. It is so nice to know that I was

able to help someone. I am probably the total opposite of you. I am very

verbal and expressing my worries, problems, etc. does help me deal with them

better. It is so wonderful to have so many online friends to do that with. I

don't know if I could have made it through my recent trials if not for my

computer and online friends.

It is so funny to me for you to say that you feel like I have been through so

much and your troubles seemed insignificant. I feel exactly the same way. I

feel as if everyone in the group has things so much rougher than I have them. I

feel both blessed and guilty at the same time. However, as my daughter told me

- just because someone else has things worse than you does not mean that what

you are going through is not hard and does not suck! We all need to keep that

in mind.

Your e-mail was one of the first I read today and it has definitely brightened

my day.

Thank you so much.

Also, keep in mind how good you made me feel by letting me know that I helped

you. Please share your troubles with us and allow us the blessing of helping

someone, even if in just a tiny way.

Take care,

W

I wanted to thank you for your upbeat post about your Friday. It

shook me out of the lathargic mood I'd been in the past many

days...dwelling on a pity party of my own pain and doctor

troubles, edging very close to severe depression.
