Vets - they DO know a bit! - Long Post
There are always going to be people who are negative, defensive and cruel in their thoughts and words. I don't have to sign out to know who wrote something negative and likely "all about me me ME! I've been done wrong!!". This is why I am such an advocate for mental health.

Here you go Karen...I copied her reply for you
Oh I agree that "most" vets are great, however just because you are a vet doesn't give you the right to play God. Some vets think their word is law, and say "Im a vet" you are just a noob. I once belonged to that R&R3 group and I will tell you that alot of those vets will go back to that private board a slam you. If you happen to ask a question or make a statement that they consider stupid, watch out they will dog pile, back stab, make fun of ect. I left the group because frankly it turned my stomach to see what they said. Its very childish behaviour. There are a few people that have replied to your post here that belong to it, that I am sure will bash me for this. Let them take this back to the board ... but they dont know me and have no right to do what they do to you, me or anyone. Some of it is just plain cruel.
But overall you wrote an awesome post. You should be proud of your accomplishments.
Surprise!
Love,
God...er, I mean Karen.

She's blocked me too because she knows I would call her out on her bull****! I would like to point out that she did not leave because we were all so mean - she left because I asked her to follow one of the few rules we have on the private group. She chose to leave before I asked her to. The history is on that board for anyone to see if they are a member. I have NOTHING to hide!
If anyone wants to check out R&R3.0, and see how mean we are - click on the link below. We have few rules - NOT stalking members is an IMPORTANT ONE - and a lot of fun!

Wait, what? We're not allowed to stalk people?

I guess i'm blocked now too. Her post is gone. LOL. I've never been blocked before. That I know of....and if I have, and never noticed...then that is just how much I care!
Surgery March 23/2011. Completed three full marathons and two half marathons, two half Ironman distances. Completed my first Full Ironman distance (4 km swim, 180 km bike, 42.2 km (full marathon) run) in Muskoka August 30/2015. Next Ironman Lake Placid July 23/2017!
I to have to agree with what is being said. I come here and post about almost everything in my life and I am just a newbe in a sense only three weeks almost 4 weeks out of surgery. But The Vets are very truthful and honest and straight forward and still give the comfort and safty of a mother.
Maybe one day there will be more then a simple word to say Thank you but until then Thank You.

A great way to say thank you, is to pay it forward and share your experiences. :-)
