RE: RE CB Updates

[Guest guest]

I wish I had the vocabulary and further

writing skills to write something so thoughtful, so correct and so concise.

I agree 100% and I would like Barb, Ken

and anyone who wishes to keep posting about their experiences, as bad/ sad/

depressing as they are. There also are very happy occasions to celebrate.

That's life.

Barb and Ken,

Dispite any differences you (Barb) and I have had in the past, I hold

you in highest regard. You have been one of our most valued members

on the PSC group for as long as I can remember. I rarely post any

more but I read regularly and you are like family to me. And even

though I've never posted directly to you Ken, you're like a brother to

me. I cry through the rough times with you and celebrate through the

successes. I have witnessed an amazing show of Henshaw courage, will,

love, endurance, and compassion. You are awe inspiring people.

Sharing our stories is what we do on the PSC group. It's why it's

called PSC SUPPORT. Life promises us no garden of roses unless we are

willing to look for them. The person or persons who asked that your

story not be shared on the group is obviously struggling with the

reality of their or their loved one's disease. And facing our

emotional pain is often tougher on us than the physical pain. But in

deed, facing that pain makes us stronger and gives us wisdom. For you

to refrain from sharing with the group is to take away opportunity for

all us to learn and grow as human beings. I hope you'll continue to

share your story on the group as well as at your CB site. Whatever you

decide, I want you both to know I'm following your every step with my

whole heart and one heck of a lot of prayers!

Much love and many blessings,

B.
