Thank you for your kindness and sensitivity......wishing every single person here, posting or just reading, a peace and a COURAGE to help yourself first......then later, if we are lucky, the ability to help others, too. Start with a smile or a kind word or two......we never know the true effect of our decency toward others........

I came back to the (other) board/thread a bit too late. Only read the last page or so. Wishing all well, and to the other OP: Always remember that tomorrow is always a precious gift. Good evening to all, sleep well.

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

(((Joey))) I read your post and was responding when the thread was deleted. Sending prayers and good thoughts to you and your sister. I've been there myself, more than I can safely explain here. No one walks in our exact shoes, and the journeys are all slightly different, but I just wanted you to know I do understand.

I agree that kindness goes a long way in helping those in need. Cater is a fellow poster who always treats with kindness and evidently you too Joey Heatherton are a kind person.

I agree with the op regarding Cater and would also like to say Lindsays Grandma, that your kindness does not go unnoticed.

There are truly so many uncaring people here that just like to see their words in print. I don't care how long this has been going on or what you think about the situation, if you don't have anything nice to say, why not just ignore?

I have to say sometimes I am very surprised by what some posters have to say.

Hello and thank you SO much to serenna, croemer, dooBdoo, ROMARY, Lindsay' s Grandma.......your replies filled with sincerity and goodwill mean a lot!........I consider myself savvy, book smart and street smart too....I do understand that many here have grave reservations and doubts about the things they read here.... I can't say I blame them... but, for me, if there's 1/10th of 1 percent possibility that a fellow human being is suffering emotionally, mentally or physically, well I cannot help but offer a shoulder.......it costs nothing, it doesn't hurt me.....it MAY help her or him.....and if a word from me helps, you know?... then that's a gift to me, too! .......good week ahead everyone!
