Please indulge me for a few random thoughts about the posts I have been reading here today:
Jim, I hope this new pain guy is located close to you, like in Bend. Let's hope he becomes the golden ticket you have been seeking, i.e. a normal good guy who will just prescribe what you need. Fingers crossed 🤞.
Renee, you have lived through hell with what you have faced. The fact that you have been so helpful to others on this site is a testament to how much you care for your fellow human beings. I find inhabiting this forum to be a very inspiring experience because of people like yourself.
Lori, you simply channel compassion. I think of all the huge and wonderful hearts I have come to know on Connect, yours might be the hugest. Such a sweet and loving compassion that you share with everybody who comes along here.
Sunny, I am glad you are here. When I saw your first post way back in May or so, I knew immediately that you were a very special person. For starters I had never, until that day, known someone who could have so many things wrong with them and still be functioanally literate. And yet, you are more than that. You are an articulate, highly intelligent, funny and warm lady. I love reading what you have to say, anywhere you say it. I'm sorry you are not appreciated enough by your family, but you are definitely appreciated here!
Sorry, I just wanted to tell each of you how much I appreciate knowing you all here. Best, Hank

@jesfactsmon Awww, Hank, thanks so much for what you have wrote about all of us. I just think I am a natural empath. How I am made. Don't really know if it is even appreciated but by one or two in my life. But I know you appreciate me, and all of us here. I am trying to think of what YOU are. You are almost like some sort of "gate keeper." You take it all that each of us say, you retain it, you learn from it, you help so much. And the astounding thing, is that you are here for your wife, but have given so much more!!!!! I sometimes marvel that you don't share our pain, but still choose to listen with all your soul. I would imagine you adore the intimacy of US. We really share here. The nitty gritty of life is expressed here, and that gives you closeness and it touches you. I just love you, Hank. You are one in a million. Linda is blessed having you. Lori

Thank you, Jim. It means a lot that you understand why I say the things I do. I never intend anything to hurt. If I ever do, please know it’s intentional, simply imparting wisdom or help in a rough existence we all share. Love in Christ, Renee
