Title: What can we do to help our supporters?
Post by Elaine on Apr 23^rd, 2002, 1:06pm

Most of the time on ch.com everything is about the clusterheads and our pain. I have been very luck and had support. I have always thought my supporters went through more hell than I do. I know when I watched my child have her child and saw all the pain she was having, I could do nothing to stop her pain, I think you all must feel as helpless as I did watching her when you have to watch us.
I was wondering what we could do to easy your pain. Is there something we could do to help you?
I think this board is great and I think we can all learn from this board as well as the other boards.
Wile I am posting here I would like to tell all of you supporters you are very important to us clusterheads.

Thats true Elaine... I came on here so worked up about a family problem and what you wrote that day truly touched my heart. You have supported and felt the pain that we can only imagine, as we watch our loved ones go from the big strong people that they are, into cowering souls in fear of sleep. Thank you for all of your support my dear... Now what can we do for you...
Love you friend...

That makes me feel good that you two feel that way. I feel the same toward you two.
If you guys want to do something for me.
You can all take this supporter board and use it to vent, teach, and learn and support supporters.
DJ and Margi work this board and both are good supporters. DJ found out since he built this site how hard it is to be a support just like I did. Margi, she has been a supporter to all here and she as you two and many others support people here not just with their clusters but other illness and lots of understanding. She knows the need for supporters to be supported.
Use this board and help each other every way you can.

I tip my hat to every supporter here, you guys brighten my day so much I have to wear sunglasses 8)

Elaine and ECC:

YOU two are among the cluster angels here. You both give so much and expect so little in return. Thank you for your kind words. It's stuff like this that keeps us ol' supporters chuggin' along.

Elaine, get your skinny butt to the convention - it's time to collect on all these hugs you been promisin' me, woman!

ECC - wish you could be there too. You'd have supporters falling at your feet!
