Love for each other :)

I have read posts that have made me laugh and posts that bring me to tears with sadness but I'm so very glad I found this place where we all come together to help each other and share our knowledge and emotions.

I totally agree with you dall05 or Tony. I have just finished writing you a post. I love your picture and your sentiments. I have been a member for about 5 or 6 months, and just lurked around at first. Reading and learning. What struck me was the utter friendliness, caring and compassion shown by its members. Like you I have cried over posts and laughed over others. I think the humour category is a great bonus, because we all get low at times and sometimes a good laugh at the start of the day sets us up for what lies ahead. I don't know what I would have done without this site. I have learned far more here than from any doctor. I feel humbled and proud to be a small part of the bond we all share and the love we have although we have never met. The people here are genuine and real. I see you are a nature lover Tony, just as I am. I often find peace just looking around me at the wonder of creation. I could sit and stare at the sea all day with the hills in the background. hugs and love xxx

And I also agree with every thing you've so aptly expressed here.

Very well said young Tony! This site has been a life saver for me at times,just reading other lovely people's posts,happy & sad,makes you feel close to them.Besides the fact,you do learn a lot from some of them.They might be in cyber land,but you Realy feel an infinity towards them!

I am forever grateful,I stumbled over this site,a couple of years ago.

The lovely photos,put on by you & others,are so uplifting too,

Giving lovely memories of the UK.

Have a wonderful day,we are in the last week of Autumn,& still having temps.of 27c,maybe winter will hit with a vengeance!

Lots of love to you,& the wonderful family,you're blessed with xxxx

Agreed Tony ! I've only been here two months and already it's like a rock I can lean on and know people who UNDERSTAND my condition will listen. Now that things are getting more chronic for me I hate well meaning but often stupid comments from those who don't know the first thing about what we go through. It's balm to the soul to be able to be honest here and stop sticking on the good face lest we upset our friends.

I agree this is one of the best unlocked sites. One Site I am on does not allow what is deemed political posts but it will allow posts that are political that fits in with the admins/volunteers ideals. I am a great believer in free speech and we all have something to share!

BLF Unlocked does that so well!

Be Well

I found this site when I got the BLF e address from my breatheasy group which I did,nt go to again because they,re a bunch of grumpy old folk,unlike here.Maybe it,s easier to not be face to face with people but I still feel really close to everybody on this site,I,ve had so much help and advice.I.m not sure if I would have coped with the ups and downs of Copd without your help ,thank you all so much!D.

Well said Tony. There is such a warm feeling on here. Everyone is so willing to offer support help advice and comfort when needed with love and humour as a bonus. Book the date Tony 23rd June Wimbledon. Looking forward to many hours with Jo Wilfried xx

What lovely sentiments from all of you and I agree 100%. I too have learned far more here than any doctors and don't know what I would do without the support and encouragement of all you lovely people. xx

I cant really think of anything else to add .....everyone has said it all ..we visualise people in our heads ,what they look like , what there famalies are like where they live and most of all how poorly they are . Yes this is such a lifesaver for many people ....and by the way ,no i dont look like that little round ,blue face !!!well not all the time anyway. X

I second that Tony...and that warmth we find among our online 'family' :)

That wonderful art of hedge-laying which I see in your picture - you sometimes see the occasional stretch in this area; surely can't be beat for strengnth and durability... Lovelight xxx
