Hey guys,
I know alot of us have become "disillusioned" with with OH & the Bama Board & I know it's Summer, but dangit.....seems everbody is gone! I know alot of us lurk, I guess we just all need to remember what it was like when we were researching & reaching out to others who understood. Remember the newby's, what it was like when it was our own bodies were going through things we read about, but didn't mean anything till it was our own selves.
Has anyone heard from Moondancer? Last I heard, she was in limbo, waiting for surgery. I know she was frustrated because of the delay. Anybody know if she's ok?
There are others missing, but for some reason Moondancer has really been on my mind. Maybe it's the Fort Rucker thing, I don't know.
Can we forget all the things that have made us quit posting or avoiding certain people, or whatever & go back to being a family, dysfunctional is fine, most large families probably are. It's better than being strangers. Not only do the newby's need us, I think we need each other.
When I was here last time & even when I was liv'n in Colorado, there were tons of get togethers & love just FLOWIN off the page! Now, it's like a ghost town. When you "talk", you can almost hear an echo!!! I would love to see everbody, I take showers, I smell good, I promise! I even wear deodorant!
I will be out & about, but I will try to answer any posts (if there ARE any) when I get back to our lil'l temporary "home".

I agree Bonnie.
I have been coming out of lurk mode lately. I didn't go into lurk because of any problems I had. I was just "too busy". Go back and read my posts lately and you will understand. I'm on my way to the beach with my family but I support what you say 1000 percent!!!!
WELCOME BACK TO ALABAMA!!!
I WILL BE HERE!!!!

I agree that it's soooo much more quite here than I've ever seen. I was 'away' for a while but like Connie not because of any ill feelings, just didn't find time to fit it into my schedule.
I LOVE the support and info found here and came back about three months ago (I think) A lot of people use facebook, and I do as well but try to post in both places.
I agree that this board was very useful to me when I was preparing for WLS!
Thanks for posting.

Hey,
I mostly lurk as I don't have a date yet and two more PCP visits left to do but I have wanted to post how very much this board means to me. I am in the "gathering info mode" and at this point mostly have questions. I really appreciate the sharing that happens here. I don't know what I would have done without the Internet and being able to connect, both physically and spiritually, with all of you.
I don't know what has gone on before I started reading and learning from you but you are an important part of my journey. When I have a spare minute at work, I pull up the board and read, read, read. At lunch, if I don't need to run an errand, why waste the gas, I stay at my desk and read some more. I have so much to figure out about this whole process. If I thought I had to depend on just my doctor and his office, I would be quite apprehensive about a lot of stuff that I know so little about. But, even though I have been lurking, I know that if I need an answer, someone here will have it. I thank you for that.
I feel like I know so many of you just from reading so many of your posts. Let me know if you head my way....Auburn/Opelika. Please don't abandon the board....I need you!
