Welcome To All New Members

[Miranda]

Hi everyone,

I'm not really online as much as I used to be for physical/medical reasons. I also am not the type of person who feels completely comfortable telling people what I am going through. I have been so lax on DGN in the last 6 months but I don't want people to feel I am in any way flippant about my feelings toward this community. I've always enjoyed it immensely .

In the last year I have had to wait extended time frames for more than 3 Cancer results i.e cervical biopsy, breast exams every 6 months because things were seen on my films,etc. I have one more test to go, if this comes out alright at least the Cancer issues are all clear for now. I am not going to mention much else other than that I have three chronic illnesses that I am now dianosed with. That's all I will say. They do effect me daily.

It's hard to describe, when you are ill, you just can't express it because you feel that no one could ever feel what you (and you would not want them to) do because in disease you suffer alone in a sense. I have friends I don't even tell. Others(familial relations) watch you suffer and that is a very difficult thing to watch. The last thing I will say is that I have grown to enjoy DGN and see it's members as friends almost like a club but we just aren't face to face. Just know I'm peeping in here from time to time. I rarely log on unless I will post. Hugs to all, Miranda

P.S. I could NEVER catch up to all of the Happy belated Birthdays but .. If I know my fellow DGNR`s , they were all celebrated and hard.

Hi Miranda,

I reply to the PM before reading this.

This was so nice of you to created this post . Thank you for sharing about your health. Big Hugs.

I send you healing vibes.

I am a caregiver to my daddy. Seeing him in pain hurts me so much. He tries to hide the pain, and I can still see it. So, I understand what you mean.

I understand your wishes. I can respect that.

You are not alone, Miranda. DGN will ALWAYS be here for you!!!

More Big Hugs.

Even More Hugs,

april
