Thank you Tish *big smile*

I took quite some time before I posted my feelings on the board. The criticism I received was done by private email.... so that no-one else on the board could see their comments.

I believe that we are very lucky to have a wonderful place like this to come and share our feelings, fears, hopes and hurts. It is also wonderful to hear about the good things too *smile*.

I am struggling mentally & emotionally at the moment, both feel very heavy and I have only felt such low despair once before in my life, and Tish, I have had a lot of things to deal with over the years....I am not saying that my life has more turmoil that anyone else's, BUT that at the moment....everything has just "backed up" in my system and caused a bit of a "blockage".

I can't explain to you how much your words of encouragement and support helped me when I read your post *smile* so many people come and go from the board, many over hurt feelings.... that is why my one true wish is that we leave criticism & bitchiness at the door when we visit the International Adhesions board http://www.adhesions.org and the Aussie support group http://www.bombobeach.com

I have one little thing I ask of you Tish, if you haven't yet visited my beach.... please take the time to walk along the sandy shores and write your name in the sand *smile* (in other words, click on Note Pad - the link can be found on the side menu bar, at the very top right hand corner in the blue area is a place to log on or register….hit register) and join bombobeach…… it would mean so much to me, and I need the numbers to help me in my fight for recognition of adhesions here in Australia with our own Government.

I am feeling better a little each day, I consider myself very fortunate to have a very understanding & great husband & kids, but I am also very lucky to have some very good and understanding friends….. who know just when & how Shane and I need help. I guess that is why I feel compelled to answer the messages on the board….if someone hadn't answered mine the first time I posted, then I would have drifted away, and it's anybody's guess how I would be now….. Mostly though Tish, I feel love, concern & true friendship here, and that is how I like the board best….and pray that this is how it will stay.

Thank you again for being my friend….many hugs & kisses
