The beautiful thing about PP is that people "wear their hearts on their sleeves". (i.e. they can say anything as long as it is sincere). There are plenty of "poop" discussions..... but no BS..... (and if there is any BS it is quickly disposed of ----- well we are all experienced in disposing of s---t
).So in that spirit I want to be honest about my lack of contribution to discussions. When I was DX MC (and thankfully found this lifesaving community) there were about 300 members. It was a "village". If I was away for a few days I could, in a couple of hours, catch up on the posts and contribute in some small way.
Now, with approx 1500 members it is a "city" (and I am sure it will be a "mega-city" soon) . If I am away for a few days there are hundreds and hundreds of posts and it takes 5 or 6 hours to catch up on them, let alone write any responses. I am at a loss at how to contribute.....which to respond to?? And anyway in most cases I have nothing significant to add to what has already been said. The rational discussions are well taken care of. But, but..... I do feel bad not to have done a "hug" to all, new and old, who are suffering...... there is so much suffering I do not know where to start.
But I do (eventually) read all posts and I do pray for and hug you all.......... And I clearly see there are saints (new and old here) who do respond, keeping the information flow, spirit and love of this community alive.
I am so thankful to you all and to Tex especially, who has seamlessly moved from "Village Headman" to "Mayor of the City".
Love ant,
P.S. I had planned an update on my medical status and will do so soon. I had wanted to give a positive update in February, but then went into a flare and had to take some actions (increasing my entocort back up to 2 pills (6mg) a day). I seem now to be coming out of the flare and am back down to 1 pill (3mg) a day
