Ritzy, Just when I wasWolfi said:Just what I needed today
Sue,
Thanks for the very nice post. It is just what I needed to read today (even though it made me cry). I feel the same way about this group. Whenever I am feeling down or am in pain I know I can come here and feel better because you guys "get it". I will admit that the news the past few weeks (Moopy and Heidi) has made me sad and angry that these great people are now gone but there are many wonderful things about this board.
I love the jokes posted and frequently read them to my husband and daughter. I like all of the NED postings because they remind me that there IS a good side to cancer - getting rid of it.
I am very lucky to have found all of you and feel honored to call you my cyber friends. I can deal with the deaths, stage 4 posts, and complaints of pain and sickness due to rads and chemo because I know that there are an equal number of "good" posts from everyone. Weddings, clean scans, people becoming more healthy, and all the other happy posts of new grandchildren and people finding their true friends keep me going and get me through the bad times.
Hugs to you all,
Wolfi
Ritzy, Just when I was wondering if I ever wanted to get back on the board because of all the latest devasting news about Moopy and Heidi, I came on this morning and read your beautiful comforting words and felt your hug. That hug is going around this board and is pulling us all together with its love. Everyone is so appreciated and there is so much support. Thank you so much for posting your thoughts here and expressing what we all feel. And I'm still messmerized by your tail!0 -

Like Wolfi said, some of us are here because it is hard to talk to others who just don't "get it". Of course I hope no one I know ever understands this, I don't want any more "sisters". But for those of us who are bonded by this beast it is nice to know we are not alone. Whenever I hear a friend say they are having an ultra sound after a mammo I get so worried. I don't want to extend the membership to anyone. But they take comfort in knowing they can come to me now. Which is kinda why I think I got this, to be there for others.

We all share a common bond and draw strength from one another.

Sending all of you a big hug! This is a really great post Ritzy and I know, I for one, needed it.

This is the ONE place Lindalinpsu said:so true
What a beautiful message, Ritzy, and oh, so true! This site is so very important to me. I feel it is the only place where I can come and be surrounded by others who are going through what I am. No mundane question or concern of mine is ever too insignificant that it isn't considered important to a sister who is going through the same thing. No doctors or family members can ever understand what it is we deal with on a daily basis, not only the physical issues, but more importantly, the emotional ones. My heart is so full of the love and support that I feel when I am here. Hugs to all, Linda
This is the ONE place Linda where everyone "gets it". It has always been my safe place as I know others feel the same way.
So, thank you CSN for allowing us to have this wonderful site to gather.

Oh Boy this is a wonderful site I found it by accident one day .It is the best accident I have ever had. It has been a tough week for all of us, but we have to all try to keep it together and keep fighting, that is want all of our Pink Sisters we have lost would want for all of us. Ritz your post was so great, we all Love You as Sister should. We have a great bond together that even Cancer can not break. We all feel your hug and I send it back to you and everyone of you. We are lucky to have each other. Best Wishes to everyone. Cindy0 -

You put it beautifully, this board has been my life line.
That's the long and short of it.

We are all lucky to have the close bond, even though I wish none of us ever had to come here.
Thanks Ritzy for writing how we all feel.
At times, I can only send a hug or say good luck, but, I hope that it helps my pink sister, even if it is a short message.
Hugs to all of you too,
