Yes, i agree with you on the fighting and insults on the board. But do not confuse these with the discussions. I imagine this board as a home, where we can do everything we want (respecting normal laws of common life) If i want to share a new med or treatment i must do it, if i want to vent (due to CH or not) i can do it, if i want to share a funny joke, i can do it. Although (as the joke of Todd) we can put a password for few persons only :-)
But we CH are very frail, and, if we are hurted, we start the fighting. Ok this is a board, we have not to do this, but can be accepted. In a clinic for CH, with docs, nurses and patients that fight and hurts eachother this way of life must not be allowed (but so funny....ha ha...). But this is a "home", where sometimes we can loose our patience, and spit bad words.
I do not agree with this way, but understand the causes.
I still have a lot of help from this board, i have known the more compassionate, funny, intelligent women and men i have had in my life.
I will continue to be on this board, although i'm in remission now, and will continue (asking help and venting) the next devil sequence.
I will continue to jump from a F*** you, a LOVE you, a KIDDING you, a HELP you and a SUGGEST you.
I WILL CONTINUE
with love, and with the usual apologies for my english (i don't answered you, i used your post only)....... Ciao and pain free days
