Re: Gotta give a break on forums for a while...

[Guest guest]

Selma,

Sorry to see you go! Hope you will return.

Have you seen my call for lyme patient stories on Lymenet?

I am adding them to my new book. Deadline is April 1. Stories any length,

emailed to me at info@... Anyone from anywhere in the world. First

comprehensive patient stories book including cutting-edge treatments in the

world.

Take care

start a job next week, I still have my small daughter and a garden to

care of (spring is in full force here!!). My German not improving much

either...

I'll try to visit the forums once a week. I'm accessible by email, of

course! I'll be glad to read any urgent message!

I'm not rid of lyme for good yet, I believe, at least I guess

bartonella is somewhere as I got again a bit chillsytoday (after a

break of a few days), so I'll certainly be around looking for help, but

not so often.

I guess I posted everything I knew that helped me arrive where I am.

It's either here or in lymenet. I don't think I have anything new to

say.

I hate to be 'leaving' like that, as you people were many times more

than my family to me. And you always helped me sooo much. And still

help!!!

But life is getting not manageable anymore! I'm going to bed later than

2 AM everyday reading the forums, well, that's not very good either.

Eleuthero seems to be working, but..... Too many things to do, little

time. I have to help my daughter learn German too as she'll be going to

school next year.

And it's hard for me to resist answering many posts when I read them!!!

So I have to commit myself NOT to read the forums everyday, but about

once a week! I got so used to use the forums since I fell sick that I

find it hard to change the habit. But I have to!!!

I'd just like to know if Joyce if fine. If anyone knows about her,

could you post here? I start to get worrried.

Warmest healing wishes to everyone! See you soon!

Selma

Dear Selma,

By all means take care of yourself as you journey, and now in addition

to your daughter and your garden, your new job.

You have given us so much, I wish I could hug you. I send you a big

bear hug across the Atlantic.

Your generous nature has meant that you can't let any call for help go

unanswered, so do take a break.

Your posts are so informative, that if any new person comes on looking

for info, I think I'll just say, 'Search for any Selma post!'

Take good care of yourself and your dear daughter. Enjoy your new job

and the adventures it brings.

Please do drop in now and then; I'm really interested to hear how your

job goes.

Love you,

ellen

Well, I already caught Selma, but I'd be remiss in not adding my two cents to

y'all :-)

I've been flying, too, lately, and not all that present here, but sort of

keeping half an eye on all you fine people.

Things are amazing in my life these recent days.

The herbals have been a miracle. I hit 8 months recently, and then turned

another corner in healing.

Just want to share, when you take a leap of faith, you can not only fly, but

you can land in a lot of beautiful people's arms.

You all keep molting (like Sam said). I know you all can fly.

Love,

Ann

Selma -

We will miss you of course - you are such a wonderful and caring

asset to this fine group!!

I hear what you're saying as I have had to lay off for a while

myself. It seems like there is less and less time for anything at all

let alone participating in all the various lyme groups. I also feel

like this group has helped me tremendously and have made some life-

long friends here too. Thank you all very much !!

I was just thinking the other night about how the more you heal, the

less time there is for participation here and it is a sad note in a

sense but on the other hand its all very good as you cannot hang on

forever to the nest, so to speak, and this is hard to put into words,

and please forgive if I offend anyone, but I think there are many who

stay ill from being burdened with just sitting in front of this

damned EMF machine all day long. Go, shoo, fly away little one and be

joyous, happy and free from the burden of the internet and computers

in general, after all, the EMF's cannot be good for us in any sense.

I am affected all day long from sitting in front of this damned

computer, but I have to for work, and its a great relief to walk away

from it all at the end of the day - its beauteous, wonderful freedom

for me. I cannot imagine, and am very thankful that I no longer have

computer at home or I would be tempted to stay up till all hours as

well as you Selma.

Go plant that garden and be with your child on her new journey in

life - may she be the best German speaking lady in her class and may

you have the biggest tomato in your town, go for it Selma - you

surely deserve it.

The internet actually, in a sense, saved my life, with the wealth of

information and so forth and of course all of you. How would I have

ever even known about Buhner if not for the internet? Now that I am

doing much better, thanks to S/C, BP and other protocols, I feel as

if its time for me to check out some new territory, so to speak, and

spread and stretch my new wings a little.

Ok i'm rambling now but had to get that out as my feathers are

starting to molt a bit and it's now " time for me to fly " .

Ooops, just one more thing I must relate is, and I'm terible with

words forgive me, but when a person is constantly focused on

something so insidious such as LD then it somehow gets imprinted into

our brain and we get stuck on those thoughts and connot escape them

so therefore we may have a tendancy to stay un-well just from our

constant thoughts on our own illness. I know somebody can say that in

better terminology, and has before, but its just my little hair-

brained perpective once again. All apologies in advance if I have

offened anyone.

I will always be checking in and reading but time does not permit me

to post much anymore (you lucky people:)See yall soon - gonna miss you

Grateful,

Sam

>Dear Selma,

I haven't been on the forum for long, but I will miss seeing your many

cheery and helpful posts. I do, howver, know just what you mean.

Reading and answering the posts can almost become a compulsion in

itself and we all need to relax as much as possible.

Hope things go well for you next week and I look forward to reading

your FEWER posts as and when.

All the best,

Carolyn
