2010 is almost here… |
Dec 20 2009 |
Hello MDJunction family!
So many things I want to talk to you all about… ;-)
I'll start with a BIG thank you to all our advocates. Words can not express how grateful we are to you guys! In such little time so many of you signed up and began (well… many actually continue…) spreading the word about MDJunction. I'm sure you're all feeling the impact as the groups continue to grow.
Many of our new advocates asked us to start a Fan page on Facebook to promote MDJunction. I'm pleased to say that I just start the People Helping People fan page and would love for you to become fans. You can find it at - People Helping People Fan Page .
Next thing - 'business'. We just launched a major improvement to the way you guys can control the emails from MDJunction.
We've added an 'edit' link at the top of your personal menu (on the left) to get quicker access to your profile edit settings where you can click on 'Set Email Notifications'. In addition to an improved General section we now let you choose PER group exactly how (and if) you want the emails sent to you.
In the big groups there is a post every few minutes so getting a notification for all is hard for some people, however if you're also a member of a smaller group you might want to be notified of every post there!
When you post to a discussion you can choose to subscribe to it (check box at the bottom) and with the new additions you can set it to get the subscription emails only!
Use the options to enhance your MDJ experience.
Finally Holidays & a New Year. I think I already talked about how holidays for me are bitter sweet, great fun and excitement but also a time to think and hope.
I wish you all an amazing 2010! Filled with good news and great experiences! Joy happiness and lots & lots of LOVE!
I hope to see you all next year, hear your stories, read your success, cry with you if we need to and just be friends around friends.
CU all next year

I so enjoy the pictures of the most important child in your life. She is such a beauty.
Thank you for the work you do here. It has been a blessing to my life. There are few places you can openly talk about your physical and mental issues and recieve support without the eye rolling that come from family and friends.
Compassion is the heart of this site and it is rare.

Without you and Alon there would probably be no MDJUNCTION and there would be no memeber's that you both have brought along.
I have been on here for two years and within the two years I have grown with all of you. Not just with happiness, love, and hope, but I had a lot of faith that goes with it.
I have learned alot and I shared a lot of stories of mine with other's and they have shared them with me. I enjoy helping other's and with this site I can do just that.
Well again keep up the good work the both of you!!!! And let's keep building this site more and more everyday.
Well I would love too wish you and your family, along with Alon a very Merry Christmas****And Happy and Safe New Year!!!!
Every new change that you come up with (WORKS) for me....
Thanks Again!!!!
Your friend Maryanne
Have a wonderful wonderful new year, and
I adore your little angel- be sure you love her to pieces now and with good luck the adolescent years will be more bearable. But always remember there is life after adolesence, usually for both parent and child.

Happy Holidays to You and your family!!

Happy Holiday Season to you and yours and again Thank You.
Thank you for MDJ. This place is great! My lifeline to helping myself and others.
May you have a lovely Christmas and may 2010 hold many blessings in store for you.
Valerie
Merry Merry and Happy Happy to you and yours! The little girl in the pic looks just like my youngest niece at that age! I am hoping that the new year will be more stress free than this year and I can post more often. Being an Animal Cop and all the issues with that plus trying to have a personal life sometimes leaves precious little time for anything else! You do have a good thing going here Roy and I've spread the word! Again, hoping you and yours have the best of the season!

Best wishes to you and your family for the Holiday Season and New Year!
I've only been a member since November 17, 2009 and MDJunction has made such a big difference in my life! Thank you!
Merry Christmas to you & yours and A very Happy New year.

2010 will be very important for my projects. Pheraps an international study on my ideas will start in 2010, other experiments will be performed, other clinical studies. Not only in epilepsy, we have obtained good clinical outcomes in autism, too, and new controlled studies will be performed in this disease.
Today very important reseasrchs are intersted to my project and them are available to study the protein that I had found to treat epilepsy.
In 2010 I'll have to work more than im 2009, but my driving force is in your words: people helping people.
If some epileptics will have benefit from my work I'll be happy.

Thank you for all that you do. If this site weren't here I would have missed out on meeting a lot of wonderful, caring people, including you.
Happy Holidays and a Great New Year to you and your adorable daughter!

Happy Holidays and here's to the happiest New Year ever! Blessed be!
Sincerely: Amanda Faith
Thank you so very much for all that you have done for all of us that suffer. Your devotion to people helping people and MDJ, are a show of what a truly caring person really is. I don't know where I would be right now if not for you and MDJ.
Wishing you and yours a wonderful holiday season. God Bless you!
Hugs~

Great pictures,your daughter is adorable. Have a wonderful new year.
Thank you for giving me a home, a new family, a place to feel safe, and a way for me to feel needed again. Not to mention dragging me away from watching TV for far too many hours per day.
Have a happy, healthy 2010, and give UV another hug from me?
Peace, Sylvia
Keep up the great work!
The pics are adorable, BTW.
Happy Yule, Merry Christmas, and Love and hugs to you and yours!

HAVE A SAFE NEW YEAR AND A HAPPY 2010
HUGS, JEANNE
thank you both for all the work you do on here making things better for us members! when i logged into my home email tonight, i noticed wonderful improvements already!! u]you know show WHO posted on WHAT SPECIFIC SUBJECT, and that's a real timesaver to me!![
being notified will be wonderful as well.
2 questions for you both:
*************************
1. roy you were going to look into expanding the PM character limitation for me since i send out llmd, lyme literate md, info on names/addresses/phone nos/$$$ of appts, patient input, etc. it's 10,000 characters presently.
those states rampant with lyme disease takes 2-3 pms to send per state; smaller states are only 1 pm to send message out so no problem on them; just the LARGER states on east/west coasts.
i've spent alot of time dividing up the lists to get it down to 10,000 characters INCLUDING SPACES, so it will go.
b]just an update would be appreciated roy and alon.[
2. alon, we visited awhile back about what IF anything could be done to use a DARKER color vs. the orange color so the text SHOWS up. right now it just DISAPPEARS into the background.
again, thank you both for your LABOR OF LOVE on this site of what you 2 have developed to serve ALL HEALTH GROUPS and provide SUPPORT and education.
merry christmas and a healthier new year for us all.
yep, those photos are precious; i love the mustache/goatee myself.

Too (two) cute pictures. Thanks for sharing. I'm also a member of Teamspire. One of our 'friends' had a sister that died from NF complications. She wrote a page to all with the affliction and asked a series of questions. She has had a few people already answer her questions. I appreciate the fact that I can rant and no one will give me any guff about my problems. Thanks for being here for everyone. Happy Holidays, Hugs, Coco
Happy Holidays and warmest wishes for a wonderful 2010!
Great pics! Too cute...
Seriously though...I just wanted to thank you for believing me and believing IN me when it seemed like no one else did.
Blessings to you and Alon for MDJ. Your halos must shine brightly. Enjoy your holidays.
Many hugs,
Starr
You are doing a fantastic job here at MDJ, I love knowing all of you are here. This place has been my life raft, a place fo making new friends, somewhere I can share the lessons that life has taught me, and somewhere I an go to just be me.
Keep up the great service you do for all of us here, you most definetely are appreciated.
Jesus is the Reason for the Season!
May your days be Merry and Bright and may we find a cure for acromegaly!!!!!!!
I've met some wonderful people and connected with several others that have let me know that I'm not alone with what I'm going through. Loved the pictures of your daughter!
All the best for a Happy & Healthy New Year Roy. May God be with us and extend His healing hand all of us.
Thanks again for all that you do,
Judson
God will pay you back with all the effort, time, heart and soul you've given to MDJ. We are proud of you.
MERRY X'MAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!
