I'm glad that you are in this group. I've read your comments in the
past and I like what you say. I am new to this group, but have been a
member of our local support group for this last year +. After coming on
line with this group, I find my self also desiring to add, and to improve
life in my support group.
At first, in the support group, I felt out of place. I allmost gave
up before I started. The age difference and my well being, as compared
to the majority, caused me to think that it was to soon to join. I kept
going though. I sat off to the side and tried to understand it all. I
see other new-pders comeing into the group acting like myself. I think
that there must be some way of helping the new join in quickly. A
thought that I have is to have a round the circle discusion where each
must say or ask anything. Then each of us will have a time period with
no competition. What I like about this listserv group, is that we can
say whatever. And, if we can get over feeling foolish about whatever we
say, then we can surely help someone. I might even accept a flame or
two and say whatever again.
