A little note of appreciation.

I would just like to extend my thanks to every contributor on here. I am often awake till the early hours (5am) due to my discomfort from my RA and find myself reading the posts on here. I find in them a wealth of information, warmth, and encouragement. It really is a tremendous help. I enjoy the occasional instances of 'gallows humour' too.

It is such a help to know we are all 'in the same boat'. Thanks a miliion:-))

I wish everyone success in their fight to control this condition which tries so hard to control us.

I think the gallows humour is what keeps us going. Its a hard life we lead so we know the a warped sense of humour is essential with this disease.

Hope you enjoy our humour.

Hi Glitter

Your welcome and very nice comments in deed.

I find that the shared experiences and advice is the most helpful, as "outsiders" don't understand what it is like to have ra and the swichability of it - no two days are alike and you can be reasonable one day and in pain the next few.

Besides the "Nite Crew" tend to bring the humourous side to the blogging. I think Sylvi has done some of her best blogs during the nite! :)

Hi

Well said, this site keeps me going as I don't know anyone who has RA, so it's great to hear all the ideas from the rest of the gang. Axx

I was thinking the same thing glitter. I stumbles upon this site when researching RA and I must say it is really helping me get my head around things. I to realize that everything I am experiencing emotionally and physically is not just me. I did feel quite lonely even though I have family support it is not the same. All of the info, experiences and humor really does help. xx
