Dear friends

I feel the need to write this to explain where I have been, what with all the talk of members leaving and so forth. I have been very ill and when I get so ill I get very paranoid and do not see the full picture. For safety's sake I withdrew from posting on PC as it would only come across as attention seeking and self piteous. I would like to thank all those who continued to post daily wishes and sent PM's eventhough I hardly responded. I must say I did at one stage feel like resigning my membership from PC but decided that it would have been a rash decision and I decided to ride the wave. I am now in recovery and see how bad I got and am thankful and grateful to be at the other side now. It helped enormously to be reunited with my family at christmastime in Ireland and I had the most wonderful day at my brothers wedding.

So to sum up I am very sorry if I offended anyone, please accept my sincere apologies.

Paddy
Thanks for this!

No need for sorry.

It's good to see you and I'm glad that you didn't resign your membership. Taking a step away to do self-care is good. I am glad you are feeling better now.

Hugs
