Thank You DS Friends
The journal entry I just wrote was very self focused (self centered) and depressing! Sorry for the rant!
It's important to me to let ALL of you dear DS friends know how much you mean to me. I think about you all often, wondering how you are doing. I read everything even though I don't comment a lot, I cry with you, I laugh with you, I applaud and admire you, and I pray often for each of you. Please know that even when I seem quiet and withdrawn, I am still here with you - walking the same walk with you. I know many of you are suffering so much more than me, and that makes me sad.
Thank you - everyone who has sent me a message, a hug, a prayer, and a laugh. I'm sorry for not responding to them all, but I'll try to do better.
Everyone here has been a lifeline to me and has touched my life in some way and made it better! I love you guys!!!

Thanks CM, It is a rough road we are traveling. We do need each to make our journey successful. I try to add humor as much as I can. I find it helps with all the lows the this horrible disease brings. Thanks for sharing. HUGS Brian
Over the years that I\'ve been a member of this site, the friendships developed, the support received, and the true caring of everyone is amazing. I suspect there are very few that respond to every journal of every friend, or reply to every message or hug received, but we still know in our heart our friends are there for us. Your friendship here is priceless. Hugs, Dan
CM,
I have just responded to your post and I don\'t know what happened to it. Can\'t really blame my computer this time as it was probably me - I was upset and rushing my thoughts down, not able to keep up I must have pressed the wrong button. What I had said was that I feel exactly the same way, the group is also my life-line, I too withdraw when I am struggling, I know how precious a message/hug is at this time even though I can\'t answer them and I treasure that everyone else here understands.
My Important note was to let you know how much of a valued and cherished friend you are. How you have made this journey easier for me and I wish I could do more to help you now.
My last message said it all so much better, sorry about that.
Take care CM,
Julie
