I didn't say it was. But if anyone wants to read what she wrote (other than about a cosmetic) you might be interested.

Sorry, but my comment was to John....... It had nothing to do with anyone else.

This post caught my eye. I have noticed she doesn't seem to be here these days. I just love those squirrel pictures she posts. I always look forward to the next one. I need my squirrel fix!

I miss her posts. Losing her father and dealing with all the multiple complex life issues she chronicled in her thread entitled "Depression" (Health & Fitness forum) combined to create some painful challenges. In addition, she's dealing with a difficult workplace and some major life changes. Her last posts on various threads were on June 7. I hope she returns, and I continue to send prayers and positive vibes out there to her.

Hi guys!

Sorry I haven't been around lately; there are reasons for that, of course.

One of the reasons is that I have spent a considerable amount of time researching cancer prevention and alternative treatments not available in this country. Most--well, pretty much ALL--of the people on both sides of my family die of cancer, and I'd like to avoid it if possible...or at least have a comprehensive idea of what treatments are available (not just in the U.S.).

I've also been in the process of making some lifestyle changes.

And--to be honest--I feel like I am stuck in the "anger" stage of grief. I know that coming here when you are extremely angry to begin with only leads to trouble, so I have been spending my time elsewhere.

Things have been very strained between my mother and I, and I spoke to my brother this weekend for the first time since early May, so I guess you could say things aren't going well.

Even before my father passed, I figured my mother would try to pull my strings the way she used to pull my dad's strings, but I didn't realize how extremely difficult it would be to be around her. (If I shrug the "wrong" way or stand the "wrong" way, she reads into it and treats me like I club baby seals for fun.) I told her that I am done being treated like cr*p, and I'm not going to put up with her nastiness.

Anyway, I'm in a bad situation right now...and I'm trying to get out of it.

Mistri, I am fairly new to these boards, but some people have memorable names and yours is one of them so I tend to notice your posts. I am very sorry to hear how things are going with your mother. That makes life so very difficult and sad. I hope things get better soon and that you get to implement the changes you want to make to your life. Take care (((mistri)))
