Hello Fellow list-survivors: First of all, Janet, welcome back-please don't ever stay away that long again; love ya! Second, I've been called many things in my life but this an historic 1st-I'm referring to Bob Chapman's post & being called a right-winger!!! My old hippie blood is having a riot with that one altho I don't suppose you meant me in particular, but I must plead guilty (sorry Barb-love you too!) to mentioning God in my posts:))) I have to because He is a full-partner in my marriage, in my disease & in my family. I try very hard not to preach about something that is to me very personal, but to avoid speaking His name because it is deemed politically incorrect would be like avoiding speaking the names of my husband & children...it is just a fact of my life! So, to those of you who don't share my faith-so what???!!! I don't get it...what's the big deal?? I can tell you that my view is to CELEBRATE DIVERSITY. We have so many things to be thankful for-this wonderful forum where our diversity can be explored and made for all to see-a thing of joy & humanity! I am overcoming alot of self-doubts to post this (I usually don't like to get involved in anything confrontational). I too, miss Dennis & Judith-but it's going to become alot more empty, I'm afraid, if we don't just GET OVER IT!!! and get back to the business of being caring human beings to each other. -- Joan E.
