If they've decided as a family that @ECBG is better at home and will wait to be seen by a therapist next week, that is HER decision. Case closed. Leave it alone. Good grief.
I'm sorry to disagree with you on this one. If and this is a highly suspect "If" a family member has become mentally incapacitated there should be an intervention ASAP. She can't take care of herself anymore and needs others to start making decisions.

Are you reading her nonsensical threads? It's very sad.
I won't judge who is mentally incapacitated and who is not. I don't know anybody here in real life. Therefore, it's not for me to declare someone is unable to care for themselves. @ECBG has a husband and a loving family. They have decided the best course of action and that decision needs to be respected by the STRANGERS on this forum. We are not subject to the consequences if they are wrong.
So then why 4 threads? Why come here and get everyone upset and the many CARING PEOPLE on this board have offered suggestions to end up being scolded by both her and YOU???? Save the lecture. And nobody knows how loving the family is. She may be left on her own and due to her incoherent posts could use a friend.

Are you aware 2 health care providers told her to go to the ER??? If you think you know better for her, then maybe you are the one not subject to the consequences.

Whatever you're angry about above has nothing to do with respecting the decision of this woman and her family regarding her health. She didn't scold anyone. She came back and tried to explain she was going to wait until Monday. There was no need for the pile on of name calling and insults about her mental capacity and to drag her husband and kids. BTW, I offered no advice to @ECBG , so it's not me who believes I know better. A bit of projection, perhaps?

Sometime I think people take these threads too personally.

No one knows if anyone is writing the truth or not. No one is obligated to read or respond. Even the OP to a thread is not obligated to follow up. I suspect we all have posters we agree with more than others. Just as I suspect we all have come across posters with whom we don't share the same point of view.

Not a fan of a certain poster or their writing style? I find it best for me just to past by those threads. Some I don't want to try to decipher, some I don't want to be swept into drama, some topics just aren't of interest.

I'm also not a fan of wanting to pile-on other posters. I don't see a need to be confrontational or questioning what someone writes. Believe it or don't. If I don't believe someone I move on. I can't understand being otherwise. It's only a message board. Nothing anyone writes impacts by life. (Well unless they're giving a heads up about free shipping or a discount code.)

The OP seems to be under some stress. I wish her good health.

Angry? LOL.🤣

I am only responsible for myself here. I did not name call, insult or drag her husband and kids into anything. My conscience is clear. I tried to be helpful but clearly you want to make my response something it wasn't.

Have a nice evening.

@Sooner what you say in large is correct but some of us go back quite a few years and do know much more than others. There are a few who actually know her in person and the family too but rightfully so refuses to interact in these threads. I don't blame her either for washing her hands of it a long time ago bless her heart! I did too as a matter of fact.

I find it best to let her be and ignore. One can only cry wolf so many times. I know different and for that cut me a break on this one ok? Don't shoot the messenger as they say right?? It's always been that way sadly.

@Pink123 : You may not answer this, but is this all a sham?

Pink123 · ‎07-10-2019

@Hoovermom No, it's not a sham on my part. Read that carefully. If you are talking about the lady in question, I have no more comments on this but that it is a cry for help.

@Pink123 : I wasn't referring to you. Sadly, nobody here on these forums can help either. Thank you.

Yes you are correct @Sooner. Time spent here is not what I'm talking about at all. I knew you would go in that direction.

I'm talking about actually knowing, spending the day together, going to dinner, etcetera. A friend if you will. Do we know one another? Nope. I know you from this chat room and that's it. Your an online friend to me.

The end.

Are we talking about someone who posts day to day wear (Mon-Sun), but the sunlight is minute to minute?

@Lucky Charm I think it's about the woman that was the "top" salesperson at a Talbots outlet store. She apparently dressed women from many states. And yes, posted her outfits daily.
