Why wear a ribbon?

  "For my husband who is a survivor of Esophageal Cancer. " (catlover51)

MDJunction to me

jaguar62"Here's a success story for you ,, there was this poor guy who all he ever did was work his butt off day in and day out, and would settle for no less than perfection which caused him to somewhat be an outcast among his peers.

But then people around him started to notice that failure wasn't an option and this guy could really get things moving in the direction they were supposed to go so when they had an issue they would hesitantly ask for assistance at first.

But as time went on more and more people started getting referred to him. Before you knew it he was recognized and he had a top executive job,Escalation Supervisor of the whole Eastern Coast of United States for a communications company was staying busy like he loved to do and helping people along the way and life was excellent, good salary and benefits ,loved going to work "everyday".

Then one day (it was a period of time ) it was over ...seemed like it disappeared in an instance (after being diagnosed with Parkinsons Disease at the age of 49) and it stayed that way forever it seemed and life was slowly deteriorating around him ..depressed , no motivation, no job, health issues getting progressively worse much faster than just Parkinson and then being told it has possibilities of being MSA (Multiple Systems Atrophy) well seeing as i wasn't working i started checking out sites online and just so happened on MDJunction and the Parkinsons Support Group and absolutely loved the forums and feed back from the GLs and found out it wasn't just poor me at all, it was lots of wonderful people who shared the same symptoms that i was and still am going thru every day but in a whole lot better more positive frame of mind . So after about a year of posting and reading the forums daily and meeting so many good people I knew i wanted to give back some of this well needed love that i had received , So I applied for a Group Leader Position and ...

I had a "new job" and its helping people as well as getting the necessary help I now require and I can do it 24 hrs a day if i want to ..HOW GOOD IS THAT .

THATS MY SUCCESS STORY/Testomonial
OH Yeah!I almost forgot the best part is the wonderful fellowship around the workplace,,

MDjunction has opened my eyes and offered me a new beginning to what was looking like a very dark end. thanks MDJ (and yes i do know where I would be without you.)" (jaguar62)

Someone said earlier that every post is responded to, new members are always responded to..so, I happened to notice that little link you can click on that says *Be the first-Unanswered posts...and there are a bunch of them. Anyone want to help respond to them, so they feel welcome and cared for?

Ang, a lot of those people are from a LONG time ago. I check it about once a week. I don't think we have to spin our wheels on that, do you?

It was just an observation Connie. I just checked it and a lady introduced herself this morning and no has told her hi. Excuse me for not knowing my place since I am not on here often enough.

Angie, if we miss responding to a person for one day, it doesn't take away anything from our caring. This all just makes no sense to me -- nitpicking. I won't be a part of it. Did you post a welcome? What one person may miss, another sees. Give everyone a break -- this is getting ridiculous.

Why won't you let this go? Why am I not allowed to say ANYTHING without one of you following it up with drama? I was just trying to find something to post that was not drama and here you have followed it with more of it. I don't get it. This post was to encourage people to post welcomes. So, please explain to me how this turned into a negative? Seriously.
