<font color="blue">IMO We need to continue discussing this... even in emotionally charged states.. we all need to work through all the feelings and thoughts. Why take these feelings into the "real" world, when they are so connnected to here! We bring our IRL feelings and thoughts TO psychcentral, how much more to do so when it's something because we are here.

Also, I would find it very difficult to believe that Ozzie isn't reading here. She read each and every post and responded over 10,000 times. No one, having done that, can just "quit".. especially when she did read and respond because, imo, her heart was in it. She cares about us here, even though she isn't here now to share that. <font color="blue">

I'm twixt between issues, personally, as I have been caught up in some issues that didn't seem to be fair, and issues that certainly weren't allowed to be worked through. When having to go through moderators, and administrator(s) separately, well... we all know about the "gossip" game, don't we? We can never be sure of communicating exactly what someone else's intent is. I would like to have seen open discussion in a directed chat on the previous issues. And, imo, it would have been good to discuss our heartbreak in a directed chat, even Tuesday night. I don't know if this kind of "intervention" and caring will ever be available here... but we can continue to wish.

I have been a member not quite 2 years. But I was on another site, as other members have, previous to this one where DocJohn was involved. Speaking in general, imo, DocJohn's intentions are good. But so are / were Ozzie's. Maybe the two of them can agree to disagree even at this time.<font color="pink">[b]

Our focus here needs to be on how WE - each one of us - are coping. Me? I reread some of her PMs she sent to me, as I have a few I've kept over time. We aren't allowed to post what we have received, and it would be kewl to take excerpts of the positive wishes she gave, but it helps to know her words are still here in a way... safeguarded by many of the members... and held in all our hearts. Maybe, in a future post, you can also recall something Ozzie would say.. and quote that? Like, I think Ozzie would say "...." and thus we can perpectuate her good wishes to all!
