One Year Ago Today...

.. I had my first hit.
The beast has celebrated today but I haven't - yet!
I've decided the only way to look at this is positively.
Without CH I wouldn't have met all of you... Its not so bad when you look at it like that!
Thank you for all the support and giggles and tears we've shared since I found this site. (which is a few weeks away yet) I wouldn't have the quality of life I have without you, I wouldn't have the information to help me and Jasper.
In short, my life is a much better place for having all of you in it and I will both never stop being grateful and never stop trying to give others the help and support I've had. You really are my family and I care more about you all than I can probably ever find words to say.
Thank you all so much
love
Helen X X X

We'd be lost without you Helen. I'm blessed to call you "friend" and "sister", and we all are blessed to have you as family here.
I love you Hon!

You are a bright spot, and I'm thrilled to call you a sister and a good friend. I don't know what we'd have done without you here, Helen.
Another way this "curse" has brought blessings into my life. 
Love you sweetie, nani

 awwwwwwwww) BTW I wasn't aware that you got hit for the first time just a year ago. You always were a late bloomer. The board is a better place though since you arrived, gotta say that.

Helen, what can I say, except that you’re awesome…in every way. You’ve been a friend, a sister to me, a confidante, and you’ve even whipped my ass back into shape when I was feeling sorry for myself – I’ll never forget that  . I love you and am glad you were one of the first people I spoke to when I first got here. It was awesome meeting you in Dallas too…By the way, you have tiny feet…You know me…I notice everything.
Langa
P.S.: Oh yeah, congrats on this very bittersweet anniversary.

It is a privelege to know you, and your humor and insights have lifted my spirits COUNTLESS times. I hope we will have a chance to meet face to face sometime soon. A dubious anniversary, but so glad you are here. 
Hugs, Pat

Helen, yip... late bloomer for sure concerning ch but not to pain. A veteran you are.
But now that we have you here we won't wanna let you go. The ch may leave, that I wish upon you but your personality made a great dent in this family and board.
And that's the way we like it. You're better than meds for my fragile constitution. When I'm down and out on a limb I always look for your wit here to give me a lift.
That is a precious gift that you give us freely.

Langa is right. Bittersweet it is but that's not the case when I met you in Dallas. I loved meeting you after all this time, even if you drive on the wrong side of the road and swill tea 24/7. 
Hope the beast gets tired of you real soon.

I'm inclined to agree with the above comments, but must draw a line following the result of a certain sporting event that occurred recently.
LeL, darling, I offer you the heartiest congratulations along with bestest wishes ever for long life and good health (given disclaimer as covered in para 1).
I also think it's beaut that your national economy is in such fine standing that you can afford to pay the ref so much more than we ever could, but I like you anyway.
Kindest regards almost always,
Your sulky Aussie mate,
Brian.

I too think you're wonderful! All the Bullshit you cop from Brian (he's got a PhD in it) means I cop less!
Really thought you were a veteran CH sufferer. Keep that brilliant attitude and stomp all over the #@*&%# Beast!!
You're ever in my thoughts & prayers
Love always

Dearest sweet Limey or should I say Jekyl & Hyde So loving and caring yet mean and snide Your comments bring joy, your comments bring laughter. With people like you these headaches don't matter If I had one wish you know what I'd do? I would wish for the demon to drop dead cause he's poo  I'm running out of words and don't know what to write but when that demon comes again remember to fight!

How bittersweet... Helen, I'm sorry you've gone so long without a break, but so glad that you're here and so glad that you've found us. I dearly hope you catch a break soon; that you find some combination that will allow you to be as pain-free as possible, as soon as possible. My very best to you, my friend and sister.
