Hi everyone, I hope you all are doing well and having some low pain days. I just wanted to let you guys know that I haven't posted alot these days because I have so much going on. Anyway, I wrote a book over on the thyroid disorders area because alot of what is going on with me has to do with my thyroid.

I just thought I would let those of you who have been wondering what is going on with me (Michael and Mikel ;) I love yous guyz! ) know that I explained alot of it over there. So, if you want to jump over and take a look any advise would be much appreciated. Take care all and thanks for listening!

Thanks you two. I always know I can count on the both of you to respond. I havent posted in awhile so maybe that's why I don't get too many replies. But I do answer posts and offer support. Oh well, who knows. I will email you guys when I get some info. Thanks again!

 Dear Shannon,

 

    Good morning *hugg* It sure is good to hear from you. I am terribly sorry to hear you are having such a hard time. I have thyroid problems myself. I do not know if I ever mentioned it to you but I have Inherited Hypoparathyroidism. Its somewhat rare to be born with problems. In any case, I will hop over there as soon as I am done reading here. I just wanted to say hello and let you know I was thinking about you! You are always in our prayers.

Thanks Sis and Dani, I guess I was just having a little pity party for myself. It's all good. I know I have support here (even if it is a select few..lol) I kind of feel like no one really knows what to say to me. I don't know. Anyway, thanks you guys. I love you bunches!

Dear Shannon,
If I could count the times I have gotten my feelings hurt because I poured my heart out and NOBODY answered my posts...Well, I've cried over it before! Seriously, it can really hurt your feelings when you need something back from anyone! I have a hard time beginning a post to this day. I don't post very much anymore because of that, but we've got a big group of people now that all love each other and want the best for the other and we are a part of this family! I feel so lucky to have you in my life and I want you to know that it isn't a pitty party, it's feelings getting hurt and that's understandable. I'll bet it's happened to all of us at one point or another. Thank you for all the times you've left a feedback for me when I needed it.
Love ya,
Stac

   I just hug them. Family, friends.... Even my doctors. My nurses too. It is going to be okay, one way or another. I know their hands are tied. I know they are doing their best. I know it is hard for everyone to watch. If those people in your life are anything like the people in mine... they just need some reassurance and gentle touch.

*warm hugg*

   ....humm... Catz and Pebbles seem to be talking about something different than me.... 

      smhair     Sorry, my world is a little different. If my reply was... completely off topic from what you were talking about, I am very sorry!   :-)

Thank you Paula and Stac I really needed to hear your words. I feel alot better. I am just a basket case with worry so I guess I take everything a little personal too. I am so lucky to have you guys!

Dani, no you weren't completely off topic. I do feel like people don't know what to say to me, or I to them. As always it's so nice to have you as a friend, thank you!

Hi everyone.

I think this is one of the threads that I got lost in. Sometimes I honestly believe I have posted a reply and none is there. I'm sure it's something as simple as writing it and hearing "Maaaaammmaaaaa????" and then getting up to deal with one of life's little catastrophes. It is never that I intend to skip anyone or anything.

I'm sure some of you have seen my other thread now where I sent a message to stac and didn't even realize that I was leaving someone else out. I promise it is unintentional.

It is very hard to know what to say to each and every person. So many times, I have been upset or hurt because my posts have been understoody by many very differently than I intended. I am very blunt. It's a personal characteristic that I have to struggle with every day. If ever I seem cold or impersonal, it's because I have difficulty expressing feeling.....mostly because of things that happened a lifetime ago.

None the less. You are all wanted and loved here. I may not always get around to expressing what I feel, but you guys have become family.

All my best

      aaaaaahhhh!....don't worry about it retired mom. We all have those feelings from time to time. There are times that I have replied extensively to a person here or there, and never get an acknowlegemnt from them!

     I just take it that they either missed the responce, or got busy that day. As long as your reaching out to support where you can, that is all you can do. I have several times just have not had the energy, or have forgotten to respond, but then went back and saw that they had recieved more than enough responces and or help with their post.

      It can be easy to get your feelings hurt, but most of the time I really dont think the person intended to do harm. Sometimes I think we are misunderstood in what we are trying to say, and it just seems to come out wrong.

        No biggy! Do the best you can!

       An old saying I once heard is "Charge it to the dust, and let the rain settle it"

Shannon -

Hi...I'll pop over to the thyroid board and read your update.... I have a wacky thyroid too that causes a lot of my health issues... Hang in there w/ everything you are going through...

I think about everyone here on the board frequently - every day, in fact. My life is just crazy; that's the only thing I can say :) I try to read as much as possible....and though I may not post very much - I do include everyone here in my thoughts and prayers, including you.

Michael - I like what you wrote - and I agree!
