Among Friends

[dooBdoo]

Aw, @NAES1, what kind words.  Thank you.  If I've been of some help, even a wee tiny bit, to anyone here then my time spent was well worth it.  I think many of us forget that this isn't "just a shopping chat forum," and the ripple effect of our words -- both positive and negative -- can be powerful and far-reaching.  Thanks, again, and I hope everyone has a lovely afternoon/evening.

@dooBdoo I am 'glad' that you do the print outs one by one to each, as you did today; this helps me to keep up. I know that many of the posters have no idea who's who so they can glance if they want to chime in.

I can usually pin point where one friend's last posted and what I've missed in the middle,around 2 pages back or from any yesterday. I had no idea that parents -sisters -children and husbands were either ill, recovering or coming down with someTHING. Maybe it's me but this has been one month for illnesses.

 I believe loveschocolate daughter (at her dorm/university) may have been one of the 1st to pick up some bug, understandably so -{crowds of newbies}; I told 'loves' she was going to run her immune system down , but still a #1 mom. Then she was very ill.

 I do know that Preds DAD was ill. Then in a (?) N. home facility and became very ill, then off to the medical center in CCU.

Now renna's sister -ill then thought to be well but out in the cold weather again, now ill again?

One does, like myself, has to be here every day to know who is improving or worse. That's why I said you give me a quick bolt of information, then I can can go back to read. Were you in the path of this Storm? I thought of you since I did not see your name or any news, also for Pam in Conn. She's fine and was not in the pathway of this storm, as I. Only 2 inches of snow. Suppose to warm up to 45 by mid week. 

I am staying tuned for Showme and her return.
