She may not be involved daily but I am sure she reads the posts. She

also has answered my emails without question.

Re: Question for the Group

I think it is a good idea. I know when I subscribed I didn't put

anything in the intro that I didn't want everyone to know. Is there

a way for the invitation to communicate that the message will be

posted to the group?

I personally like the hands off approach and let the group grow on it's own.

What type of files need to be sent monthly?

I really respect what you all are dealing with. I wish I could help out, my

hands are full at the moment. I am trying to get help for me and my husband so

I can take better care of him. Lots of Luck. I really need this support group.

Very warm regards, Sharon

Just to be clear

No files need to be sent monthly.

Bouncing members are removed after giving everyone a chance to fix

the bounce. We all get busy from time to time. AND this disease can

take us far from our computers.

We all try to keep this a positive experience in the midst of what we

and those we love.

I am sorry MsTigerHawk is unhappy here.
