    • Hug

      From MonicaMM September 22

      Hi NVB, I just realized that I don't recall responding to you, if I have, here's another hug (can't ever have too many) If I did forget it is because I have been going through a lot recently. One of my four legged "babies" had been very ill the last three months. He had oral cancer. We had to let him go this past friday. He was a great friend, he helped get my boys through my divorce about 13 yrs ago, and he's been a great friend to me also. He alway knew when one of us was down in the dumps, etc. But we couldn't let him suffer anymore and had to do the best we could for him. I know this has nothing to do with anything but it is why I have not been on/and responding recently. You hang in there girl and I am here whenever you want or need to chat. Great big gentle hugs! Monica

      From DrStitzel August 28

      Thanks....we really are on the same team and want the same things.....we're just approaching the problem from different angles (pun intended). We'll beat this thing one day, but we'll have to stick together in order to make that happen.

      Type: Clinical (Major) Depression

      Well I think I have traveled on the road of denial for years, but after hearing from a few doctors now that depression may be a factor in my health. So it really made me think..more than I wanted too. I lost my best friend at 19, raped at 17 and again at 25, and the two most important women in my life die in my arms. Maybe they are right. I am a positive person, and feel that things that happen in our life are just that .. life. However maybe these events are taking their toll.
