Lunch Bunch October 11th
Sheila, I know this wasn't directed at me personally. I do understand where you are coming from. The board has changed a lot over the last few months. I try not to upset the balance or lack of support as it stresses me out, not good on the blood counts either. There was a time, if I missed just a few days of not posting, postings were posted asking where I was. Now it's like no one cares when someone doesn't post for a while. I try not to let it get to me, but I would still like to know if I am missed or for someone to to inquire. As for the luncheon's, I feel torn inside. This is a first for both areas to get together and a chance to meet others from the East TN group. I would love to be able to go for this luncheon, but it's not just financial, it's the trip itself. I have to go to West Virginia next weekend as my dad is failing bad, this may be one of the last times I will get to see him. Mom just had an heart attack the end of July. With her being a diabetic, high blood pressure, multi strokes, and now a heart attack, they are no longer able to travel. That trip will totally wear me out. After about an hour of traveling, I am in so much pain that I have to stop and rest every hour. Not talking about just getting out and walking around, I'm talking about napping. So any trip takes longer for me to get there. Here's an idea, instead of having the Christmas bulb party here, why not make it to the East TN and have a really big Christmas party. Why limit it to once a year? Maybe a Thanksgiving time, since it's a four day holiday. I know that area is beautiful over the holidays. There's so much to do there during the holidays.
That's my ideas. You should not be left out when it comes to support, caring, or made to feel like you don't excist. Everyone on this site is just as important as the next person. You are a beautiful person, and don't forget it. Regardless what is said or done. Yes this site has changed and so have the luncheons, the support. Even posting my Quotes, When I used to post them, they were read and even some made comments about them. Now very few read them. Some are so important and they are inspirational to our everyday lives. I will continue to post them. Maybe they will help even if it's just one person.
I post now when I have the strength, there are times when I am so weak that I can't post. Having Leukemia causes me to be anemic. I tend to sleep alot. I plan on taking a short nap and it's nothing to wake up 6 hours later. I miss the support of this site, but I have to think of my health and well being first and foremost. I don't go to alot of the luncheons, not just because I don't have the money, but because there are times, I'm just to weak to go.
But you said some things that needed to be said. I didn't take offense to it and maybe just others will agree and get this site and the luncheons back to where they should be. Support, protein ideas, and clothing exchanges.
Thanks for posting your feelings. Love ya
