MDJunction to me

mobey"MDJunction has become a lifeline to my recovery. I use this site as a daily coping tool where i can share my thoughts,my fears and ask ways to cope with living life with a illness. I also found new friends here and they have restore my faith in humanity. People everywhere come here to share same problems or solutions to problems we encounter in our lives. MDjunction is a wonderful site and has help not only myself but also my family and friends. I recommend this site to anyone who thinks they are alone dealing with an illness and also to those who have love ones who suffer from illnesses. I will keep spreading the word about MDJunction to organizations who deals with illnesses that would benefit having MDjunction as a support system.Bottom line is.. I found myself again through MDJunction" (mobey)

My sister fell today. I've done little damage compared to her. She chip a bone in her knee, cracked a bone in her shoulder. OH MY. My daughter boy friend went down from a cramp, I think his potassium is low. Daughter thought it was funny and bam she got a cramp also. I'm am so glad I did nothing like my sister. Gee WhizSad

RW,

Just so you know, I do not want any of that that you have. I have enough thank you, I do not need to fall down and bust my butt, or face, or anything else. Keep it to yourself!!

Please do not take anything I say as medical advice. I am not a doctor.

Mabri, is that what it's called? I don't like anyone noticing me, and I do my best to stay out of crowds.

Realty, hon, please, honestly, don't take this wrong, but----stay on the other side of the room. Wink I do not need the Falling Down Bug when I have a hard enough time with The Standing Up Bug.
