Moderating is hard

[Guest guest]

Kathy --

Please don't get discouraged with moderating. It is a difficult job. I took no

offense from your response to my questions and I think your answer was right on.

My question was truly an honest request for clarification. You do a wonderful

job! and I apologize for not telling you before this. I am not doing a lot of

keyboarding lately, just too tired and fingers and neck too stiff.

Also, , I hope you stay with the group. We need people like you!

Most Sincerely, Cheri :-))

(Ed. Note: Thanks for the kind words, Cheri. I know you were asking a question

and you were entitled to an answer so I took no offense. Moderating is easy

with a group as nice and concerned as this. Sorry to hear that the PA is giving

you a rough ride of late. Kathy F.)

I don't know this group that well but just from what I have read

over the last couple of days being a moderator is kinda like being a

boss except friendlier at times.... I guess my point is that there

are alot of emotions running wild here with the meds and no meds and

the pain that we all are experiencing with P & PA, that hopefully

even if do vent as did as saying we are quitting, let's

remember that she might be having an off day and support her(AND

KATHY YOU DID THAT). With as many members that are here we are ALL

NOT gonna agree on things. All we can do is be there when the other

might have a bad day--- maybe all this makes sense...??? Just my

input.... =) Lucy

(Ed. Note: Lucy is right. Treating one another with kindness, respect and

understanding is good advice wherever we are. Our list members are very good at

doing that! So let's all continue to be good to one another and let's get back

to talking about PA. Kathy F.)

I'm just having a really hard time right now, and I let something small get

to me. Emails are hard to read emotions and intentions etc. and when you're

already irritated, I snapped back. I am sorry for that. I'm making one of

the biggest decisions of my life, wether to leave my partner of 4 years, and

the father of my child. I am totally dependent on him (have no car, engine

blew) and I have alot of things to change and work through. It's nobody's

fault and I'm sorry.
