Have you guys noticed how many NEW names are popping up on this site? I think the word is out that this is the place to be is you're not CH free. (that's my poem - and I'm sticking to it.)
One thing most of the new posters are saying is, "I just lurked around for a month or so before I decided to post anything." If you're "lurking" out there, come on in. We can't help you if we don't know you're here.
As Linda B says, We're Not Alone anymore - Now We Are Many.
I have talked to a lot of you lately and I really do feel we are family. Our common goal is to find a cure for CH. And we will with time and patience, but until then if you don't feel comfortable posting - e-mail any of us, we'll help any way we can. That's what families do.
Drummer remarked the other day that I'm always fussing at people for apologizing for posting or asking questions, but no question is stupid if you don't know the answer. Aren't any of you old enough to remember "LOVE STORY"? The only thing I remember from that movie is "Love is never having to say you're sorry!"
There is no "put on" on this board. We all mean what we say and say what we mean. So if you're afraid to post - don't be. The more input we get the faster we'll find a cure for this demon.
Lecture done. I love all of you and right now I'm going to bed. See you all tomorrow.
