I am hoping most of you are just keeping an eye on the board and not in pain. If you are in pain I pray that you will be free of it quickly and be able to get the needed rest.
Ted, it is a hard thing to understand, but probably the easiest way to think about it is that we are all different. Everyone handles things in their own way - doesn't always make it right. We have been called a selfish people here in America and yet I have also seen giving and concern here on the board that would rival any organization. Each person must decide what their involvement will be. I truly believe that a great deal of the ones who stay in the back are offering up prayers for those who are hurting - or at least I like to think of it that way. Some might even be scared of the internet and posting just isn't their thing. A person needs to take responsibility and Ted you have done a great job at that. I personally thank you for your posts and the encouragement you offer to this board. I know...it's late and I should shut-up!
On some kind of soapbox - probably will melt come the next rain! Smile for you! -R
