Love and hugs,

When I first came to mdj you were the one who helped me! I will never forget all of the wonderful information you shared with us all, the time you spent typing things up so that we could all read it and most of all the activism. You inspired me to want to be just like you and never shut my mouth about this awful disease that so many people are suffering from. You inspired me to do something, anything to make a difference! Thank you...from the bottom of my heart!

hugs Smile

Melissa

avalon, so glad i could be here for you/others during those DEEP DARK DAYS/NIGHTS! misery loves company; so we shared yours together.

melissa, oh no, another BETTYG/MELISSA runing around here like the EVEREADY BATTERY!!! lol Laughing

melissa, you brought tears to my eyes and happy tears running down my face. so glad i inspired you to be ALL that you can be ... a VOCAL ACTIVIST for yourelf and others who no longer have THE VOICE to be!

yes, it takes alot of TIME to break things up, but it's for ME/plus ALL of you too!

i want you ALL to be able to read anything that is posted on this board especially since so many/majority of us have NEURO lyme and can't read long, continuous text.

avalon and melissa, god bless you both for stopping by and sharing your heartfelt words of the difference i made in each of your lives.

NOPE, I'M NOT GOING AWAY.

just lesser hours after the transition of leadership is over with only purple being the active leader since lauren has been SUPER SICK FOR 1 WK.+!!

http://www.gocomics.com/closetohome

thank you JOHN, my online friend from here!! i'll never forget this moment until my dying day!! YOU MADE ME FEEL VERY SPECIAL Wink

hubby's sleeping soundly so i can't share this moment with him now, but i bookmarked this too to find later on.

speaking of barry manilow, over 10+ yrs ago, our local dj had 4 hrs. continuous B.M. songs without replaying any of them.

now i love barry's music, but it reached my limit, and i called the dj saying ... .give us a break!! a little goes a long ways when you don't get good reception at work.Kissing
