I insulted no one

Oh, but you did. After Missouri tried to offer their support and say this: "I do not know if I agree with your other statements.

I do not agree that you can wish, pray, or hope these infections away.

My opinion is you need to live and eat very healthy and take steps to pressure the infections with anti-microbials.


and you responded with: "well thats what differs the people who heal and the people that dont... Eating healthy is fantastic, but a toxic mind is the most debilitating. I cant force anyone to pray, and I don’t remember writing anything about a wish... Sorry you’re such a closed minded person, truly feel sorry..."

In case you didn't realize - that's offensive.
So is typing in all caps - as that's considered yelling on a forum. We don't allow members to post in all caps for that reason, so I am asking that you now stop.

No one ridiculed you for praying - in case you haven't noticed, there are a LOT of people on here that pray and offer prayers - so let's not start getting off topic.

What was said was that you broke a rule, and you need to take responsibility for it. No one else here has broke any rules in this thread.

Acting like you were the one that was attacked is completely uncalled for, as you were the one to do the attacking. So I am here now, asking that you please stop, before you do get yourself banned (and not by me necessarily). All we ask for here is civility and to be mindful that you are speaking to others that are struggling as well.

We do look forward to hearing what your cousin's barber (don't know if I got that right?) did to heal that long ago and what you choose to do as well - but you must show respect for others here, just as you wish to have respect shown to you as well.

Can we just please move on? I really don't like locking threads, but if this continues I will be forced to. You attacked someone else, I stepped in and you got offended. I'm sorry you got offended, but you were not following the rules you agreed to when you created your account.

All members are required to follow the rules - all of them.

Please let this go people

We have young man that truly wants and needs our help.

Let it go.

It's not the dialogue... it's weakness that gets me heated!

I think you are stronger than you know.

Im finishd here...

I'm sorry to hear this. If you care to have help you can email me.

Click on the blue envelope under my name and we can keep this off this forum and private.

I have a grandson that is your age and I totally understand how difficult this must be for you being ill at your young age.

Please write me.

If this is truly the case, you can feel free to take this off forum and email me privately so we can discuss this as adults.

To MODS,

I'm sorry!

I know, I understand... Just I never asked anyone if they agreed, and I'm sorry that you had the same troubles... According to my mother, it was the hardest battle she's ever fought...

It's incredibly scary for a Mom to face nearly loosing a child!! I have deep sympathies for any mother that goes through that - no matter the age of the child!

about your post, I do understand, but we have differences of opinions on here all the time, and this is not a "religious forum", so if a person wishes to post that they are praying for another, or something similar, that is completely acceptable, but for a person to say that if someone doesn't pray (or whatever else you wish to put in there), then they won't heal, it's just wrong. It's also why Admin chose to post this rule:
6. No posts of copyrighted material, lengthy articles, or posts of an overtly political or religious nature.

In the Forum Moderators forum, there has been a ton of discussion on this specifically, as we were wanting more definition of what was desired by Admin, and what it comes down to is that we can say we will pray for someone, or someone can ask for those that pray to pray for them - but other than that, it's not something that should be discussed on forum.

We DO want you to stick around and continue to contribute (besides, now you have me terribly interested in what that person you mentioned did 20 years ago, as I "could have" possibly benefited from it myself!) - the more varied experiences we have on here, the more people we will be able to help.

I will refrain from posting anything that might lead to debate... I learned, and I will correct it with any further threads/posts I make! I can't wait to share what this man has to tell me, any info told to me will be transferred to these forums! I really don't want to burn bridges here, I was wrong and I've learned the way of the forums real quick LOL. Anyway, I will update everyone on the info I will be receiving and I hope many will benefit from it! My apologies to anyone that I have wronged, I'm truly sorry, NO EXCUSES! Hope everyone has a positive day!

I'm so sorry that these lessons have to happen sometimes - but I figured it was a misunderstanding - which is what it usually is when people on here 'argue'.

I'm very glad to know that you will stay with us and understand better now. I think we all look forward to hearing what this person did - as well as be a part of your support system!

No need to say sorry... I took action too quickly. Anger is my ultimate weakness (always has been), but I will make it my duty to keep anger away from here, as no one will benefit from that! Fresh start... STARTING NOW!

You were definitely undertreated by the doctor who gave a 14 day course of Doxy. Most of the mainstream docs just do not know any better. They are following what the IDSA and CDC are telling them to do.

I do not know if I agree with your other statements.

I do not agree that you can wish, pray, or hope these infections away.

My opinion is you need to live and eat very healthy and take steps to pressure the infections with anti-microbials.

I think you should read everything you can here, and get an appt with a Lyme Literate doctor.

I'm so sorry... Having a bad day! I disrespected you for no reason, but my angry, ongoing mind... Please forgive me as I really just want to be part of the community! I respect your views and I understand why you and others don't agree. I respect it! Sorry again!

Also, I want to be clear... No matter what happens, good or bad, I will stick around on these forums. I learned real quick what it's like to be ill, and what it can do to ones every aspect of life... I feel horrible that anyone (especially all of you good people) have to endure such pain! No one, but the sufferer will fully understand one's struggles, including myself. I will never understand what many of you are going through, but I do know it feels excruciating! Many people have to work and keep up with life, while so ill and It really does hit my heart knowing that such good people have to suffer, it's NOT FAIR! I am on your side guys! I want to help others as that's what helps me! It's good for the both of us. STAY STRONG!! You people are the true strength of this scary world, you guys are some really tough people! Toughest I've seen!
