Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 BERT......DON'T YOU DARE LEAVE! Once someone explains why they do something for one reason or another, that is great! We are, like said, a support group! Personall, the caps are OK with me. Actually, these darker caps are great. I have vision problems too, and the light letters are difficult for me to read. THat is why I have darker and larger size letters. I am going to see the optomologist this month because things are NOT clear anymore for me visually. I used to wear contacts, but since starting the prednisone, I cannot wear them. I believe earlier in the fall, someone mentioned that prednisone can cause dryness of the eyes. It makes sense to me! So, hopefully, I am not having problems with my eyes now, but will wait to see what the doctor says. There is a heridity problem in my family with eye problems, but so far, I have been able to avoid them. The familial problem seems to have escaped me! I am grateful for that! PLEASE BERT...do not leave! Those who have problems with the capitals are basically talking about chats-at least, that is what I thought...but my mind is NOT what it used to be!

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 In a message dated 1/1/02 4:14:02 PM Pacific Standard Time, sunshinedotson@... writes: I AM JUST VERY OFFENDED, THAT PEOPLE ARE MORE CONCERNED WITH INTERNET ETHICS, THAN US BEING COMFORTABLE! Bert, please try to see the kindness behind the message that politely informed us all of usual, accepted e-mail etiquette, which includes using lower-case letters, avoiding flaming, and generally trying to make the reading experience comfortable, simple, and pleasant. Remember, that person was not aware of your physical limitations and wasn't speaking specifically to you. It was a well intentioned act, intended to give us information rather than to criticize anyone. Consider, first, the thoughtfulness that spurred that message. We all try to accommodate each others physical limitations and occasional moods. Now that we know the physical reasons you, and perhaps others, have for using all caps, we can drop that subject and go on with the real business of the site -- providing information about AIH and its symptoms and treatment. I hope that you will write in the way you find most comfortable. Best wishes. Harper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2002 Report Share Posted January 2, 2002 Bert don't leave. I enjoy seeing your posts each day. I don't often say much, usually just read what others have to say. All caps are okay with me. I've used them a couple of times myself. As far as typo's don't be too concerned with that. We all make mistakes. I'm sorry you are going through this and I think of you often. I wish the best for you come tomorrow when you have your c-scan. Hopefully they will be able to come up with some positive answers for you. I told you before if you leave we will track you down and bring you back.

Guest guest Posted January 2, 2002 Report Share Posted January 2, 2002 Bert I'll try and be on chat tonight. Sometimes the kids have the computer and I'm not able to get on. Hopefully tonight will be the night I finally get to chat. It is tonight isn't it? Ann [ ] SIGNING OFF!!!!> >> >> >> >> > I AM SIGNING OFF!!
