wow moment - chat tonight

Just left chat, things were still going strong.  Hope everyone had as much fun visiting as I did.  Wonderful group of talkative people there tonight.  Ideas shared, inspiration, motivation, anticipation.  Missed you Patrece, passed on your greetings to the group.  Get over the strep throat quickly my friend.  There were 8-10 of us that came and went during the chat session.  Feel free to stop by chat for the whole hour or just a few minutes as you are able.

Reminder to have your friends come share the fun of bariatric buddy group with us, post often.  Love to hear what everyone is up to.  The positive support is just a flowing around here.  I am glad that I found this group and that we are growing as quickly as we are.  Those that post and reply are the backbone of all the fun.  Thank you to everyone for participating.  This is great.  Off for some rest before my night shift tonight.  Take care everyone, you are the best.

Hugs, Kathy

thanks Kathy! i had a good time!

Kathy, I came late...at about 8:00PM...but here it is 9:30 and I am just leaving chat!  And I left two people still in the room!!  Wow!  It was great conversation and sharing tonight.  I am walking away with some good tips, a good warm feeling from having supported others, and hopefully some new friends.  

Love the chat when I can get there!!  :)

I am sorry to have missed chat, but got some much needed rest. I am actually starting to think I may be on the road to recovery from this doggone strep. It came on fast and hard. Strep has always been like that for me. I am to the point where at the first twinge of pain I know I have it and know if I do not get treated I will be in big time trouble in less than 24 hours. I went to the ER after about 14 hours from the onset of the twinge, and have still been very bad. So i am so glad to have a gimmer of hope that it is on its way to improving!

You guys are all so great to have here. It is so awesome to have such kind, encouraging and caring people in this group. It is also great to have those *****ach out to the rest of us. Thanks to everyone for being a part of our group!

Missy...I am so glad that you enjoyed the chat too! I am also very pleaed with the awesome quality of members we have in our group. You guys all fit the whole purpose of our group, to be buddies and to both give and recieve positive and caring interaction! I am soo proud of this group! So grateful to be a part of it.

I am getting better and better now. No more high fevers, and rarely a fever at all, when i do get one it is very low grade, and the pain is decreasing significantly! Thanks for the well wishes! Hoping you do not have to go through any more episodes with strep yourself.
