Guest guest Posted May 9, 2000 Report Share Posted May 9, 2000 I just want to update my decision and add a few additional comments regarding my computer glitch. I hope everyone's stopped receiving my e-mail that I didn't send out. Somehow on the onelist, my computer was set to auto respond which sent out numerous blank e-mails. I have no idea how this happened. All I know is I did not do it. It was unbelieveable at some of the responses and reactions I got from this support list. You flamed and threatened me before you knew the facts. To me, that is not support. You all want truthful and honest answers from all the post ops yet when this happened very few of you bothered to find out the truth before you found me guilty. Following are some examples of what was said. See if you agree if this is support or not. What is your problem? Got nothing better to do than clog up our e-mails with useless messages. I see this as a cry for help and God has a plan for you. Please seek his guidance and contact me for help. You are toying with some techies and your computer might catch something you can't get rid of.......You only get one warning. I was accused of being mental, demonic, malicious plus alot of other things. I have and will continue to support all on this list and the post op list. I love meeting new people and keeping the wonderful new friends I have made on this list. I thank God for each and everyone. Especially my favorite angel, Dr. R. I'm going to stay on these lists because I feel I can be of help answering questions regarding surgery and giving support. I whole heartedly believe in this surgery. I'm one of Dr. R's staunchest supporters. I'm still mystified every day with the changes that this surgery brings to your life. I started out at 350 pounds and todate weigh 192. I've never felt better in my life but I know I couldn't have done it by myself. I did it with the love and support of family and friends. Friends whom I have made through contact on these lists. So I'm not going anywhere because I'd miss them too much. In future, all I ask is find out the truth before you flame and blame. Think before you act. Your actions and words can really hurt people. If you'd taken the time to find out about me before you flamed, you would have known I'm not that kind of person. One of Webster's definitions of support is to endure and tolerate especially with patience. Patience was not practiced on this one folks. Again, I apologize for all the e-mails. Hopefully the problem has been solved. The manager of the onelist reset my machine from auto responding and they've run all fixes for the I LOVE YOU virus which is really a killer. It is a really powerful bug. Always, Janie For future reference, my home phone is . Please call before you flame. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > eLerts > It's Easy. It's Fun.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2000 Report Share Posted May 9, 2000 Perhaps Janie should be welcoming YOU to the list, as she has been post op for over a year. She has graciously entered the realm to show preops exactly what it's like to lose over 150 lbs from this surgery. fg >You are sure to get support and help with your questions about the >MGB, too. > >Anyway, that said, welcome to the list. > >Kind regards, > > ( " the Barbie Wannabe " ) >email: lindat@... > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
