Supporting each other

In my trawling through things for pic of the day I came across this and I thought, actually this is very apt for everyone here. Sometimes we feel isolated and sometimes even rejected by people who don't understand what we are going through, but we come here and know we can grab an outstretched hand for help and its always there !!

I love this site. So many questions I had were answered here, and asked by others. So I know I'm not on my own with the pain, the fatigue the frustration of it.

It helps keep me sane, well, a little bit anyway!

You are all so very kind, I wasn't sure whether people would take to my posting pic of the day each day, but it seems to be ok, and I feel that if I have lifted even just one's spirits for just a moment, then it is worth doing. If I am wrong and you get fed up with me/them, then just let me know and and I will attempt to stop them, the last thing I would want is for anyone to be unhappy with what I'm doing.

As ever, Foggy x

That's a very apt picture. Any group of ppl that can put up with my ranting and whining is worthy of a gold medal.

There's a good bunch of people on this site who are very supportive and offer advice and support to all who ask for it. I like your pics, always have a look, even if I don't always post (some days my wrists hurt too much to type for long).

With our governments failing us of the very basic of human needs these days, I have been saying we all need to support each other..... Just recently I set up a fundraiser for my daughter and her family. Kim has to undergo fairly urgent brain surgery for Chiari 1 Malformation. Her skull is pressing on her brain causing a back up of cerebral fluid ... she is already losing her sight and hearing and if it had not been caught, she would have died within 2 years.

Donations are coming in various amounts..... the other day there was an entry for $300 and then the next entry was for $2 ...... I can truthfully say, Kim and I are as moved by the $2 as we are by the $300..... In these situations every penny is valuable as it comes with love of heart and a genuine desire to support the other.

Your picture here is really great... it says it all! Thank you so much!
