This is the best forum I've ever been on.Ive tried Sarcoidosis forums online and it wasn't my thing,but this forum has the best people on it.I haven't laughed so much in ages.And not having family but hubby and kids to support me can be a strain,and I sometimes feel isolated,but I know I can come here and get support,help,information and uplifted.Im so grateful that everyone has accepted me and kept me going when my life was in freefall.I love talking to everyone and laughing with everyone.So thanks guys,youre all the best

Morning Tracey, it's great to hear you're feeling happier. I know you've had a lot to cope with.

I totally agree with you about the wonderful friendships we all have made on this forum.

It's a breath of fresh air hearing about everyone's hobbies e.g., gardens, pets, cooking, families etc etc! It's lovely to be able to forget about our problems & health issues, even for a short while.

We can all laugh & cry together because we all understand each other.

I feel I could reach out & touch you all. It's fantastic for the morale & we all have a sense of belonging to a caring family.

Hope you & you're family are well 💐

I hope you're okay now.I went awol too,I didn't want to admit that I had problems and I built it up in my head,then when I shared my problems everyone was amazing.Im always here if you need a chatty slightly neurotic Scottish lassie in your corner 😉 LMAO 😂 xoxo

Yes its a really great forum and so glad I found it too. We're all here for one another which is great as even with family & friends to talk to I don't believe anyone really knows what its like living with a lung condition unless they "live it" themselves. Take care and keep posting with your news x

It's so nice to see you popping up with posts and chattering away, Tracey. Neurotic? - I don't think so!!

Take care and see you soon. Love, Sue x

I to totally agree gothmum@ - this site has been a lifeline for me also. One thing I really appreciate is that you can join in by just reading,there's no pressure to write replies until you're ready. I'm so glad I'm part of the BLF forum- I've even suggested to my Respiratory Nurse at our local hospital,to recommend HU to new "COPD'ers.
