I joined this forum a week ago as I had just been diagnosed with severe copd. I was extremely concerned at that time and worried about my future. I had many helpful and reassuring comments, which made me feel not so alone. Its is a real shame that some people are so afraid of light hearted humour. It is so refreshing to laugh and not dwell on the illness we are suffering from and look for a positive side of life. The serious medical information is vital but we can balance this with a lighter view and not dwell on all the serious issues (which we all know are there), but need a breather to be ourselves and forget our condition.
Good luck to us all

Fair enough - I apologise if I assumed it had been moderator deleted rather than poster deleted.
I wouldn't call it bickering, just discussion which can get heated. Usually, it will happen on Sunday when the moderator isn't around. You can bet on that, Quintus. The outcome was really that humour and lighter things should exist on the forum, just help people relax with deeper problems. All the best from Annie80 xx
I am sad too. It is always at the weekend, when there are no moderators and there are particular individuals who continually change their identity to do it. They target a few specific people, but it affects us all. Something they don't see and don't care about.
As Gordon said on an earlier blog, this has been raised before and offers made to help. Nothing seems to change though.
All I can say is when you see the names of people who post most days, or at least sometimes during the week, whatever it might be about, they are fine and want to contribute to this site.
The only bad part about the jokes is that they makes me laugh, which usually means I cough (quite a lot), but I will willingly put up with that to be cheered up by some of the great humour.
Hi moneal i,ll try to keep the funny's to a mini mum ( ah! So that's were they come from ) in the future, glad you enjoy them, take care and happy coughing.
I love this site, I love the humour and need to read about these lovely peoples lives whether happy or sad. I do not want to read about illnesses in every single blog as I live with it on a daily basis caring for my husband (grumpy) as he is called.
So please, don't change it, okay talk about medical problems etc. as this does help other people who are having similar problems but also let us have a laugh as well because all I have at the moment is his illness and how much phlegm he has coughed up or how much urine he has passed. I am lucky, I am fit enough for my age (70) but he forgets that I am as much a victim of his illness as he is as I am also living with it on a daily basis and to make it worse, I could go on holiday, go to town, meet friends for a meal, but I can't and don't because I never leave him on his own as he gets panic attacks when I mention it.
