...to have this place. A place we can go at anytime, to get a hug, or a shoulder to lean on, a laugh, or a sympathic ear... a place where we can stomp and scream, with noone to tell us to shut up and sit down! A place where there are no social classes, we all love one another the same! A place to just sit and listen to others... We are all so lucky... the day I stumbled on to this message board (well it was the old place first, but some of the same people were there) I didn't even know what a message board was. it was just dumb luck that I found you all. You are hear when I'm lonely.... or sad... You are hear when I'm rejoicing, or praying... whenever I need you, you are here. Thank you NT and Friends!

Right back at ya...
I feel the same way. I get so much silent support from you guys. and when I tell, say my specialist or the ms nurse, that my support is an online forum, they look at me a bit odd. But i don't care. Thank you from me too. |

Too true. I have the lazy gene and would never go to an actual MS meeting or support group. I would be totally isolated as far as MS goes without my virtual friends here. I never discuss MS with my "regular" friends, they are full of incorrect assumptions and bad advice (enough with the bee sting therapy recomendations and diet soda horror stories already!).

I haven't told my docs I have an online support group, but my friends and family hear all about you. Sometimes I think they're a wee bit jealous.
Not my fault if you guys are funny and fun to chill with.

I will just add my post to this thread.
I don't NEED to explain MS to friends any more. I can safely speak here and be understood. You all allow me to move forward with MS giving me knowledge and comfort. And some REALLy good laughs. |
