Oh please Dillm, don't leave on account of a minority. I'm sure you saw all the positive/supportive responses for ehaustedwife (Jan) and carers in general which means you are loved and valued by SO many (the majority) of us here.

I can't imagine the forum without you and your photos and Alfie & Smudge. My post was intended to reassure all the lovely carers here so please don't tell me it's failed.

Take a little time Dillm to re-think ; I for one would miss you far too much........ Your friend, Cat xxx

Super valuable person you are, holding both roles together. Stick around, Dillm, it's just a blip. All calm and serenity and good-naturedness will shortly be restored, I am sure.

Dilim please don't leave. We value your contribution more than we might say sometimes.

Survivor carers I think need this site more than any of the rest of us and have my complete respect and admiration.

Love to you and your family.

And a big hug

Ooooooooooooooo

PS sent you a PM

Echoing what others have said really. We can only stand strong together and we need each other. Try to take extreme views with a pinch of salt. x

Don't go. Stay and monitor post for a while before leaving completely. Give this forum a chance.

Surely this forum is for all those suffering the effects of a bi....That is EVERYONE from the person with the bi to carers and family and friends. This surely is an inclusive forum not exclusive.

Yes there will be disagreements in the future but it is up to us all to sort them out. But that is what this forum does...It sorts out misconceptions and misunderstandings.

Once again don't leave. This forum needs us all.

Oh Dilm, I'm sorry to hear how much this has affected you. I know how uncomfortable discord makes me feel but respect that everyone is entitled to their opinion. Both my partner and I have neurological issues - we care for each other and know how tough it can be from both sides of the coin. Headway was created for all who are affected, directly or indirectly by BI. x
