Old Friend Returns

hello!  I have been away from DS for several years now. I don't know why I lost interest but I did. The site monger met a need I had I guess. I use to be most active in this group, even was the first group leader  community leader whatever they called them for the MS group. This site helped me so much   I am now retired and I was thinking I might have the I ever now to participate in this forum and maybe get some help to the questions that come up dealing with this disease or even maybe helping somebody else.  My problem is that this site has been re-vamped, to a "new & improved" DS but I cannot figure out how everything works!  I hope some of the old-timers read and reply and I hope to hear from some of you that I've never met before and make new friends. This site has changed a lot but unfortunately everything MS really hasn't.  Lynne

It is good to hear from you. We have missed you so much. This site is a mess. I am still adjusting to this site. I am still here. I do not post as much as I use to but I am here. Maybe we can get this site going good. Please stay in touch. I miss a lot of my ole friends from this site. There are still a few of us on here.

Hi Lynne, I wondered what happened to you. I left the group for about two years, too, and there were SOOOO many posts about dislike of the new site when I returned. It wasn't broke and didn't need fixing. Glad you're back. I've always enjoyed your company.

Yes, I missed you as well. I, too, haven't been on the site often either because the new website is so hard to use. I can't find anything easily. It was a shock to see the new site and I just don't think I will ever get used to it. I hate change. But especially when it ain't broke, don't fix it. Now the site is broke. Glad to see you come here again Lynne and was wondering about you.

    Usually I get a daily influx of emails on health topics.  An article from Dr. Mercola really stood out recently though because it mentioned that fat cells have their own mitochondria. Not only was this the first I'd heard of this, he also mentioned that fat serves a purpose in our metabolism.  Another new factoid for me.  The bottom line for me was to appreciate that even our fat cells play a...

    I just do not feel well and I really think that it's because I cried yesterday on my way to work about my Aunt who is in the hospital.  I don't think that we will have her much longer.  She is very frail.  Now she needs help eating.  So, this is the third time in a year that I felt this way after crying.  I think crying releases toxins into my body.  I also worked up a sweat at the gym...
