Where do we find that disclosure and how do we put it on all our posts? Nobody's ever mentioned it to me, but I've seen them on a lot of posts and wondered. thanks!

It was sent out to all GLs a very long time ago saying to make up whatever you wanted but basically to the point of "I'm not a dr what I say is advice only shared from personal experience." Something like that. You can look at mine for an idea I forget what I put or just leave it real simple. Wink

Click Edit next to My Profile and then click the tab that says Forum Signature and type it there then click Update.

I suffer from Rapid Progressive MS, Lupus, Fibromyalgia, Epilepsy, Migraines, Neuropathy, IBS, Narcolepsy, Arrythmia, Arthritis and too much more complete list on profile.

"Just because we have the right to disagree with a person, does NOT give us the right to disrespect that person."

I'm not currently active due to many personal and medical issues. I will not be participating in MDJ for awhile, my thoughts and prayers are with everyone. I hope everyone is well and I appreciate all of the thoughts, kind words and messages. I have tried to respond as much as possible and apologize if I have not gotten back to everyone. Love & Hugs, Stacey

I just added a sticky to this so that new members will hopefully read this and be aware that they can sometimes hurt a person's feelings totally by accident. Feel free to add any words or phrases that we've left out!

love & hugs to you all,

So let me get this straight so I understand it clearly.

When I tell someone how utterly stupid, dumb, crazy and lazy I think they are, and what a mess that I think they have made out of their ridiculously retarded life and they get mad because I said such an ugly callous thing i can't tell them "oh that's nothing" compared to what I really wanted to say," but, I know just how you feel, if I put a j/k after it I'm okay?

That is an extremely long run on sentence that took some thought to get it all in there. That said, I for one am really glad that I don't see many people being mean spirited on here. Most of us don't feel good so to be mean on top of that would not be nice.

I can tell you what puppymon said is a very good point.. when we type in our head we hear the emotion or laughter some people dont I have now got in the habit of putting lol(which I never wanted to do,lol)

but I know I have accidently offended others who didnt get my joke, and it can get out of hand fast..

we have to remember our group is uniqe(sp)(special)as most people will tell you from diffrent sites because we wont let our people feel attacked for any reason..At least we try to not let it happen..

if anyone is having trouble with another member please go to the GM, me Rayne Stacey and we will sort it out..

Ms.bad cop rayne I think you were a good cop

we all have alot to give if one gets the help then some of this suffering is worth it..

remeber I am not a doctor I just say what I think
