I think it's now turned more into a catalyst for people to express how they feel when they've heard what they've heard from others Pegasus and not really directed at you anymore (and shouldn't be since I think you well-clarified your intent earlier on).

Everyone, and you can tell me to shut up if you want but I'm going to say it anyway and hope you don't take offense because you should know from my posts how I feel about us all, what was typed was typed and it seems to still be striking a nerve with people which in a way is a good thing BECAUSE it means we're not so numbed from the effects of this disease that we can't still try to defend ourselves. Feel proud of yourself for caring enough to defend your point of view! As for Peg, she doesn't really deserve any attacks either. We're all here because we choose to be my friends. We offer our support and in return we get love and care from others who've experienced similar problems.

OK, now go about crucifying me if you wish. I don't mind I've had abuse from the worst of people before. Just before you do, please bear in mind that I'm here because I truly love and care about you all, whether I've talked to you before or not, know you IRL or not. I care because you're suffering like all of us in this world. YOU my friends, just have the courage and bravery to admit it. To admit that you're not gods. The strength to allow your wounds to be exposed because that's the only way they can start to heal..

Ok...let the arrows fly.

Chris
