Guest guest Posted December 12, 2000 Report Share Posted December 12, 2000 OK - How does this song make you feel and what are your thoughts on honesty when dealing with illness? Do you think people are dishonest with you? Is honesty an issue when you are not well? What are your experiences dealing with honesty from everyone from medical practitioners to family and close friends?All feedback appreciated!!!!! Much loveAisha Honesty If you search for tenderness It isn't hard to find You can have the love you need to live But if you look for truthfulness You might just as well be blind It always seems to be so hard to give CHORUS Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue Honest is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you I can always find someone To say they sympathize If I wear my heart out on my sleeve But I don't want some pretty face To tell me pretty lies All I want is someone to believe CHORUS I can find a lover I can find a friend I can have security Until the bitter end Anyone can comfort me With promises again I know, I know When I'm deep inside of me Don't be too concerned I won't as for nothing while I'm gone But when I want sincerity Tell me where else can I turn Because you're the one I depend upon CHORUS *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*Believe that there's a light at the end of the tunnel.Believe that you may be that light for someone else.- Kobi Yamada*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Aisha ElderwynEmail: aisha@...

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 , My honest opinion - BRAVO!! If you apply the Serenity Prayer to your situation - God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And the Wisdom to know the difference Your decision seems to be a good one. You didn't reach your goal, you discovered there was something you could do about it and you did it. If I fell significantly short of my goal, and Dr K agreed there was something that could be done about it - I would have it done. I wish you a quick recovery! hugs, cindy lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 > My honest opinion - BRAVO!! , I agree with her 1000% (yes, a THOUSAND) percent!! If the docs thought you were good for this, don't be second guessing them, they know their business, and they would NEVER offer, much less do, a procedure that didn't have your best health in mind. Good luck and congrats . And we now return you to that same ol', same ol' DS story: sip, sip, sip, walk, walk, walk, rinse, repeat... rissatoo@...

I don't think I have seen you since July, huh? .....I'd like to know what everyone > thinks and if they are against it why? Thanks in advance > in woodlke I am for what you did. Why not? This should help you get closer to goal or possible all the way to goal. As far as the timing, well, whatever works for you. This timing is best for you, my timing was best for me, Ann's timing is best for her, etc. I know I probably could have gotten a better cosmetic outcome if I had waited longer to have my TT, but hey, it ain't in the stars for me to wait, so this is what I have. I am an expert at hiding flaws, anyway! LOL! Marta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
