Nuh Uh! I'm just older and more rickety! You have had to be so strong for your kiddos while you were so sick. THAT"S strong. But I'm glad I made you giggle--I've always thought that was a good way to help when you can't help, KWIM?

I guess we all help each other be strong together, don't we?

She is doing pretty good.. been very busy. Still gets tired easily since she didnt give herself any real healing time from her gall bladder.. but has gained weight, and can eat and drink without pain again ... She doesnt come on much right now (if at all).. so I thought I would update you. She is a hockey mom, and between working a gazillion hours a week, and running her youngins all over, she doesnt have the time to sit at her computer much.. (and quite frankly, had a couple REALLY rude comments from a couple of the people on the board accusing her of only coming on when things were bad, and not being supportive of other people..so when she DOES have a couple minutes, this is not high on her list of priorities).

Thanks for asking .. I will let her know you were! Good luck with your surgery! Your date is close!

Default ????

What IS IT with some of the people on this forum? People who are here with heart and sincerity are so welcome...but more and more "old timers" seem to be catching grief in pm's. Whoever this is, why don't you just leave? Some of us value stuff you apparently don't, so rather than insulting us, how about you just go somewhere else.....?

The person who badmouthed Carrie obviously isn't evolved enough to understand what Carrie contributes to the forum just by virtue of her being on it. I understand totally why Carrie wouldn't be eager to spend her precious free moments by setting herself up for a hassle.

Give her MY love, Jen, and give yourself a hug at the same time. I sure miss the closeness there used to be on this forum. Sigh.

About 10 minutes after I posted this.. she told me that she has to take a leave of absence from work because her stomach muscles didnt heal! Someone needs to sit on that girl.. I SO think she would heal better in NY *grins*...

GRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!

That just makes me crazy. Carrie is a huge supporter on this board and is very missed.

Carrie remember it doesn't matter what those rude people say you are loved and many of us feel your support as well no matter where we are in our journey. Enjoy chasing those kids of yours. That is why you have done this in the first place so you can keep up and enjoy being with your kids.

Know you are loved and missed.
