The computer has slowly changed my life for tne better...My husband used to download these letters for me. I enjoyed them but sometimes they were a week old and I did not know how to respond. One day I typed a letter on word perfect and he sent it that evening, for one week we received replies. I could not answer them; he was giving me that NO look. This summer my daughter who is 13 showed me how to get the letters each day. That entertained me while she was at camp. Soon I wanted more. When she returned we began talking on the chat line. This was fun for awhile but I wanted to talk without her. I needed privacy. On Sept.2 my 54th birthday my husband got me a computer with windows 95..He set it up in our bedroom. I am making great progress because today I am witing a complaint. The reason I love the chat line is it is the only place I have found in the 10 years that I have had PD where people accept me. We laugh at each other, encourage each other. We have never met yet there is a closeness that is very special. I know if I have had a bad day it's allright to be a litle bitchy. That's the mood I was in the other night when I found myself in a private chat room with another member. I was being told the gospel. I listened; I know she meant well. I have had the same conversation many times. The decision that I have made is personal. If I was looking for spiritual answers I would brose the net. This was not the place. I no longer feel that the chat line is a place where I can relax. That is not right. Ruth Spielberger
