I haven't been on for a few days and am horrified to read about the upset that has led to Littlepom leaving us. I hope she will reconsider as she is such a knowlegable and valued member. We all have our off days and sometimes something written might hit a nerve.
TBH when I found out what had been going on. I thought, 'Oh, no! Not again.'
From time time, people take offence and leave. That is their choice.
My first thought today was to leave as I can't be doing with the agro.
But I would miss so many of you. Each and every one of you has written something that has made a positive impact on me. I am as well as I am because of your posts.
Please, let's get back to being the friendly, supportive group we usually are. We need each other!

I agree, well written. We support each other, and try and hope to be knowledgeable and considerate. Yes we need each other. Best wishes, Jean and Morrison xxx
It seems to have been a bit of an upset Moy but hopefully all is well now. I’m sure dear Littlepom will reconsider and return to the fold. This is a very kind and caring forum so nobody needs to leave as support will always be readily given.
Hope you’re doing well Moy and it’s nice to see you. Take care xxx❤️🩷
She is not coming Back Carole - This half a story from Caspiana. after being requested to contact LP - It reads..
"I did. And received a reply. I won't repeat what was said as that would be futile but I don't see her returning unfortunately. It is a loss especially for the Bronch patients. Having suffered from Bronchiectasis for almost seven decades she knows everything there is to know and any advice was well meaning and she knows that the treatment for COPD and Bronchiectasis is and has always been differently. I don't know why this happens. This forum is a big enough playing field for all in my humble opinion. This makes me sad. But I know disagreements happen sometimes. We are only human. xx 😞
Fern 27 - This is the second post identical. Littlepom knows a lot more than me about bronchiectasis I agree -
The posts between myself and Littlepom was about Doctors and consultants. Have you read any of that thread? None of my posts was bad - The very worst was asking her to "stop twisting my words" - Her last post to me was horrid.
I had no wish for her to go to me it was over, I do not believe a spat has attracted all this attention .
Nobody made her leave this forum, people like you and others I think are trying to make me leave, you may well win.
Have just seen your reply Ern007 and as said previously please don’t leave. There is absolutely no need. I have seen that Caspiana made contact and the response. I now think enough is enough and we need to get back to the normal everyday discussions including seeing your paintings and also lovely photos which always brings a smile to my face.
Fern26 and others are keeping the pot boiling - One on your thread exactly the same. these are direct attacks on me. eg Fern 26 on this thread, " So if someone has made her leave this Forum shame on them!"
Others like this on your thread. peege bty thinks LP leaving as a "travesty" that was yesterday,
What this is doing is keeping the pot boiling - It is also making it harder for Littlepom to return.
I came on this morning and lots of support - I said to each and everyone I was staying, some really good sorts. Then a post worse that Fern26 . I think LP supporters will never want me on this forum.
I am not touchy just being honest, I don't wish to leave but sick of being blamed I know LP was very ill, so am I.
I have a half finished paining on my easel - for posting tonight, I really could not get into finishing it.
I appreciate your patience Bevvy - I know what moderating is like, I was a joint admin on a world cricket forum, web based like this -Aussie plus English supporter together, not easy
It was where you said that you don’t wish to leave the forum but others are trying to make you ☹️.
Some of the nasty comments I have subsequently seen by others in this thread trying to blame someone is really getting out of hand and not what was intended by my earlier post.
Try to ignore posts which seem hostile. It is possible to be a LP supporter and an Ern supporter too- I know- I am one. Just let the fuss die down. Things will be back to normal by this time next week. Flower power-peace and love, man, and some lovely Ern flowers in the offing.🌸🌺🌻🌼🌷 Chris xxx
Thank you. I hope I am not one of those unstable red giant stars which are going to go bang any time .⭐✨🌟 (They don't do an emoji of a supernova- thoughtless of them.) xxx
Hang on in there Ern.we want you here.i feel 4 you,the uncalled for upset you were put thro due to being attacked by LP & the after math since.brush it off Ern, you have enough health probs,dealing with cancer . I hope u can soon get back to your painting xxxxx
I do not think someone has “made” her leave and they should not be blamed. she has chosen to leave because someone has said something she didn’t like and we should respect her wishes and her reasons for leaving
Glad to see you hanging on in here, Carole. I've finally recovered from a chest infection which followed on from a cold. First infection for over 12 months (apart from COVID in October) thanks to taking regular Azithromycin!
I too was thinking of leaving, but I have been on here for a long time and I would miss other peoples sharing of their expertise, the repartees and the off topic conversations.
Nobody should feel like they have to leave or feel upset thinking it was their fault, when somebody leaves the group due to a discussion on a topic.
The diversity of conversations is what makes us all different but it’s that knowledge that brings us all together to support one and other.
I have just joined this group and I can’t tell you how much I appreciate every body’s kindness, support, advice and information. I have just been diagnosed and Iam a complete novice with my illness.
NHS resources in some areas are sometimes limited and patients miss out on valuable information.
If i had not found this group, i would have become very depressed and stayed in bed after looking at google.
Everybody has gone through a journey with their illness and without the lovely people on this forum, expressing their experiences and struggles, the newbie would miss out on that journey of information and vast knowledge. We need you all.
Can we just leave this subject alone? What is done is done. Let’s not go back to the old days of a row a day. Time to draw a curtain over it and move on.
The police caught two lads round the back of the primary school last night. One was drinking battery acid and the other was eating gunpowder.. They charged one and let the other one off.
I agree - Some supported are so rude, and have not a clue what was said Look at Fern27 nasty post higher up. she is not the only one - I am quite frankly an getting fed up. Only for the support posts earlier, I would have left - Not really enjoyable on here and wonder will it be again.
Good grief - not been on here for a few days and now its kicking off. Hope it calms down, we had enough of it some years ago - dont want to return to that - but in the last couple of years its been so friendly, comradely and helpful on here. A model of how a forum should be.
In any forum there should be mutual respect for each other, be able to share our knowledge and experiences without people taking offence! It happened to me in another forum and I left it! It just wasn't benefiting my mental wellbeing at all! We need to respect each other as our lives, illnesses and circumstances vary! I am sad to read this post! I wish Littlepom well!🙏💖
