Thanks so much for your message, Autumm. It's great to receive news from trpt1. It amazes me that getting onto the new site is so difficult. There must have been a glitch in the program whenever they converted everyone over. Hopefully trpt1 and others will get back on soon. Maybe trpt1 ought to open a new account and call herself trpt2. At least she could get back on. And we would still realize that she is number "1".

It puzzles me too that trypt can't get to log in. That is a great idea Nanny, which might work!

Trpt has tried again many times. She believes it's a mater of her old computer not being compatible with the new site and suggests it may be an issue for old friends from here too. This new site seems to be a complete mess in terms of what it has destroyed on here and what it was changed to do. Trpt will probably have to invest in a new compute before we met here again and of course for all of us buying such n expensive item is not something we do overnight. I HATE this new site for destroying all the good things we were all trying to do here. Best wishes to all. Autumm

I've been trying to think about trpt1's computer problems. If her computer is okay otherwise, she might want to take it to a technician who can check the computer and its programs for compatibility issues. Sometimes computers simply need specific drivers updated, or some other simple fix. My computer is 6 or 7 years old and runs this site okay. I also booted up the new DS on a computer that is 10-12 years old, and was able to get on. So unless there is another problem with the computer, it might be a simple fix. And if trpt1 does need something new, maybe a netbook, Chromebook, 2-in-1, or tablet might work and be less expensive. I hope she can get one soon, and certainly understand that she just can't run out and buy a new computer right away.

Hi Nanny. I will forward your post to Trpt. How are you getting on with the weakness you were having. Best wishes. Autumm

The weakness seems to have improved a little, but the skin issues are a little worse. If it's not one thing, it's another. Thanks for asking, Autumm. How are you getting along?

Hi Nanny. I am sorry about your skin, perhaps this is the Lupus overlap but I am pleased to hear the weakness is better. I forwarded your post to Trpt. It's incredibly hot in London at the moment so I am staying out of the sun and drinking lots of water. The Azathioprine does not like the sun and if I go out in it, it's a very odd feeling. I hope to hear your docs are on top of your skin issue soon Nanny. Best wishes. Autumm
