[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 474106, member: 1514"] Ive always been very open and in fact, I got my diagnosis while I was here on this forum. Many of the members who have been here the longest were here with me while I went through it and helped me through some very tough times. They were my lifelines many times when things looked very dark. I can never thank them enough. I dont have much in the way of family, I am an only child and most of my extended family doesnt even think about me as far as I know. They sure dont keep in touch. For me this board has become my family. When I was so sick, this was the first place my kids knew to come and tell, then they called my father. This place is what saved my life I am convinced. I have saved on my hard drive all the posts full of prayers and good wishes that everyone posted for me. I also got cards and balloons. I still have them. When the doctor's told my family I was probably going to die or be a vegetable, everyone here prayed or rattled beads and look at me now! My first words upon waking up were "the board" ...lol. Not my family...but here. That kinda ticked them off but oh well. I remembered them pretty quick after that. Its funny how I remember saying the board. I dont remember a whole lot about that time but I do remember that. I missed everyone so badly but hearing from people helped me a whole lot. A few people called Tony to keep up with me on the phone. Thats how special this place is. I never would have dreamed back in 1999 when I came here looking for help with my 12 year old that I would still be here when he was 25! LOL [/QUOTE]
