After a long hiatus from Lymenet, finding some of our stalwart contributors still posting was reassuring. The comfort and community here have provided substantial healing energy and information for me over the last week or two, and over the long haul, since 2005.
Newbies have no idea that many Lymenet posters, while ill themselves, have spent years and years "listening" and replying, offering suggestions, welcoming, caring, posting links, updates, and answering questions.
Keebler, Lymetoo, Tincup, Marnie, Wild Condor, Brussels, your expertise is invaluable and so are you!
My most humble thanks for all you do!
Surely there are more regular, extremely knowledgeable contributors to Lymenet I missed, but you know who you are!
Today I ask just this of all: Grow a smile on your face and give yourself a real hug and a real pat on the back too for time well spent and work well done!

Thank you, mjo! How kind of you to post this!
You did forget TF and hopingandpraying .. and many others! But we thank you!!
I need to move this to General Support .. where it will die a slow death unless others come to its rescue!!
PS to all .. Don't forget that that medical articles are often posted in GS .. and then there are the FUN posts!
As soon as I hit post, I wondered about placing this erroneously in Medical.
Oh well.
Please do add the handles of others who contribute so much. Been gone a long time from this source so not really current on who's who!

Ditto mjo (and bartender bonnie from recent and similar thread)! It is such a difficult and lonely journey and Lymenet has provided a safe place to learn to cope and function with this nightmare of an illness. I will forever be grateful for all the wonderful support provided here.

Thanks db. Just wish more contributors and visitors, especially newbies, would see this.

Just saw your post. Thanks so much mjo!
How sweet it is to be appreciated! Thanks for taking time to do a shout-out.
Truth is, we learn as things progress too- from all members.
And the support is great. We can all feel comfortable with friends who have been tossed in the same bad boat.
And we understand each other, at least most of the time.
But, what I'd really like to know is why NO ONE has been able to get TuTu to pull up her pants and leave them that way after all these years?
We've all worked on her and discussed this topic, but she continues to drop her drawers for anyone and everyone!
But, we still love her- the little weird-o that she is!
Thanks again for the kind words! You are 2-sweet.

I am here purely for entertaining the masses, Tincup.

Funny girl you are!

Mjo, you're welcome.
The time I saw your thread, lymenet had banned me, as spam!
I couldn't reply you!!!
I also got great support from so many members here.
I could even laugh sometimes, when my lyme brain understood the jokes!!
