This used to be a 'rockin' place!!! Did everyone find another home? I'm glad for the ones that are here.

Hi doydie, I asked the same question at the end of Gary's thread... you do realize this is not the original Braintalk forum?

This is a "copy" of the forum that someone put up temporarily until the old one gets back online, but who knows whether that will ever happen. I'm not holding my breath.

Raising my hand and waving frantically...I'M HERE.

I had made another forum my home for the last couple of years, but I came to my senses (Not really ), and I'm back home.

Does anyone remember me? I was Salpalsally at the old BT. Hey this new place could work, maybe with Mods who actually have a neme.

It's late so I suppose nobody's here and I'm talking to myself again.

See y'all in the morning...Oh wait, it is morning. Well later in the morning. Doesn't anybody stay up late anymore?

Love, Sally

Yes, I realize this isn't the old BT. I guess I just figured that once a 'replacement' became available until John could fix the mess, that everyone would come back. I have tried going to some other places through the years and have always liked BT the best. I guess a lot of the others have either decided not to try this one or have not found it yet.

Hi Folks,

I've been lurking, figuring the original BT would be up by now. Since I'm not sure if it is ever coming back, I decided to start posting here. I've been enjoying agate's site as well.

I guess other folks will eventually start posting here too, if they have been lurking, just waiting for BT to come back on line. I've also checked out a few other sites, but none compare to braintalk. I do hope it eventually comes back.

Yipee! I just found this temporary site. Salsapalsy, I remember you. I used to be "Trying to go w/ the flow" then switched to "Linda." I started posting on the MS board back in the fall of 2001, right before I was diagnosed with MS.

Linda

Well, DOG MY CAT!!! (Wow haven't used that expression since the mid eight-teen hundreds.) How are you ole pal? So nice to see your username lighting up the board once more. Yep, can you imagine all the shocked people who decide to just drop in and find braintalk is no more. Glad you found your way here though. Hope everyone else looking for the original site is able to do the same.

I'm doing quite lousy, thanks for asking. This goofy disease has decided to progress, so am going to probably be switching to Rebif in October. Was hoping to just go back to monthly solu for a bit, but my GP doesn't want me to because my sugar is too high. Have to see him this Wednesday and I imagine he is going to want me to start taking meds for Diabetes. I just started taking yet another BP med, a beta blocker. Who in the world invented those things??? I'm finally down to just being sick for about a hour a day now. A big improvement from the 8 hours a day I spent sick when I originally started taking the pill last Friday.

Other then that though, I'm doing great! LOL

How goes it with you? How's your health treating you? So good to see you once again. Don't you be a stranger now.

Well, I am another one from the old Braintalk. Boy have I missed it! I posted there since early 2001 under VMJ. Just started using my first name here because I had to have more characters anyway.

I recognize so many of the names here. Hopefully, more people will find this spot. I just happened to do a search for Braintalk Communities, and that is how I found this place.

Have done some reading on other forums this summer while waiting for BT to come back up, however I have not been posting. I just always have felt BT had more good information than anyplace else that I found.

I think if we keep this one going more of our people will eventually find it. My thanks to everyone who is trying, and of course to the person who came up with this idea.

DAR. the problem is you probably have not being doing enough fishing!!! Seriously, I am sorry you are having it so rough right now. Have you ever used kyolic garlic in addition to bp meds? It is known for lowering bp. I don't imagine it would be enough by itself but it might help hold the line or make it so less meds are needed. (just a thought).

Anyhoo, I am okay. I'm still on the Swank diet and Copaxone. We sold our house in the country and bought a 1930 house across from a beautiful park in town. Dennis loves it since we have acres of green grass now but someone else does the mowing, .

The house had not been fixed up for about 40 yrs so it was a 'wee' bit of work to get the outside looking like a yard. We have the living room, dining, entry, sunroom and downstairs bath done. I'm currently working in the stairwell and have the upstairs to redo.

Right now I'm making reproduction antique clocks for Christmas presents and am planning a grandfather clock to make for the dining room. Dennis is on vacation for 2 weeks and has been going salmon fishing so you know he's happy.

I do hope others arrive since I'd really like to read how everyone is doing and say hi. Take real good care BnT. margie

Welcome home, Wayleaf and Virginia.
