Hello all,

I am pasting a copy of my post to John. John was so hurt that some of us haven't
posted, or posted as much as before. I am not sure if everyone will read the post from
me to John. Therefore, I just want everyone to know, I haven't forgotten anyone. I love
all of you, and think of you often. See below under the underline.

Dear John,

I am not sure if I am on your friend list. I consider everyone my friends, especially
the old timers. Not meaning age of course. In my thoughts everyone on this board is my
friend, including the newbies. I don't have a friend list. The list would be too long.

Don't get too hurt, if once in awhile I don't post. I go online everyday, and read all the
posts. Summer is so busy, and also exhausting with the heat. I try to go out asap, not to
have a high electric bill. Even though my house is zoned, the bill is still too high. I run
to my beach club as often as possible.

All my love and prayers Love Maggie

    Maggie,
    You are right near the top on my friends list. I had about 20 people on my list about a month into joining. I was checking my post one night just killing time and as I went back farther and farther I began to notice several of the people that used to post never post anymore. I then went to my friends list to check if I could get any info from their expressions. When I did I happened to notice that most of those people were no longer posting. I would post a notice every so often to them but never got an answer. When I say have not posted in a while I mean months and months of not posting. I know once we get this stuff under control we have other things to do. Work,travel and just get on with our lives.Some even have to travel to other states while still in treatment and really can not find any spare time and that is understandable too. I try to look at all this as a sorta family and when someone goes away for months it gets kind of worriesome. I have taken 13 names off the friends list because they have simply disappeared. Several of them had made comments of how good things are going and that was the last I heard of them. If I wasn't retired I am sure I would not be posting as often as I do now.
    Anybody that reads this knows I am not talking about them. Afterall they are reading it so they haven't gone away completely. If any of the members that have not posted for months do happen to read this just let us know how you are doing out there. John
    PS How I wish I had a beach house to go too.LOL

    Dear John,

    I am so sorry you had to post so much text. I felt so bad that you were hurt.

    Right now, I am considered in remission as of Jsn 2011. I feel pretty good, except
    the extreme heat. Considering my remission status, I would never forget anyone on the
    site. I want to keep in touch with all of you thru the years. Hopefully, future posts
    will be positive for all of us.

    I have been going to my club for over 20 years. I started when my daughter was very
    young. I have so many friends at the club. I need their friendship so very much.

    John, stay well. And, yes I enjoy all your posts. All my love Maggie
