The passing of our dear ECBG/Cathy got me to thinking of just how much we do NOT know the life challenges other posters are going through!! Although it was apparent she had been very ill based on the many posts she courageously shared in the last two months or so, nothing could have prepared me for reading that she had gone to Heaven! I am truly heartbroken, and the tears still flow when I least expect them!💔
She was much sicker than any of us could have imagined, and sometimes faced criticism as she struggled cognitively to share her medical journey with us.💝
Some of us will share stories and medical histories; some will not. As others have mentioned previously; for some Forum friends this is their ONLY opportunity to interact socially.😊
It would be so nice if we can try to make this a welcoming space for ALL.❤️ Until we walk in the shoes of another, we do NOT know what they are going through! There is SO much positivity and kindness here, so let us pass it on!!!😊
~~~All we need is LOVE💖

@SandySparkles, what a beautiful post. And, it is so true. We never know what it is like to walk in another's shoes. Many here are experiencing extremely painful and difficult diagnoses in their lives. Some are of course terminal and have conditions without treatments or cures, therefore they are facing death. Some have friends or family to offer support and encouragement but some do not.

There have been a few rotten apples here that were quite insulting and argumentative, I think for the most part they are gone, I sure hope so !! I was victimized on more than one occassion.

Beautiful words. No, we never know what anyone else is going through. When I read some posts, I think they're offering too much information, but who am I to decide? Our world could use a whole lot more kindness with each step we make.

I am so sorry to hear of ECBG's passing. My condolences to her family and all who knew and loved her. May she rest in Eternal Peace.
I will truly miss her posts.

@SandySparkles I was thinking similarly to you when I heard of ECBG's sad passing.
Perhaps one of ECBG's legacies here is that we remain kind to one another as she modeled in her posts, and that we "do no harm."
Because you're right, @SandySparkles , we don't know what other posters are going through.

It has previously been mentioned and discussed about how much speculation there was. It is not an easy topic when posters post so much private information and ask for input. Then it becomes pretty much fair game for discussion, which in itself is debatable.
I don't see that posters here need to be scolded or reminded that we don't all think alike on this topic, but I think most all of us responded genuinely and kindly to what we were told and what facts we had.
This forum has it's ups and downs and all who post regularly here have their own thoughts and views--which is what we are here for--and right to express them.
