Hi everyone,
I've been visiting these boards over the past week and am a little disappointed! So many read the messages but so few ever write back, and some messages go campletely unanswered! We're all here for the same reasons right? Empathy, advice, support sometimes just to get something off our chest. Sometimes all someone needs is a "hang in there", "I'm sorry you're having a bad day", "congrats on the clear scan", "I understand, I've been there". Is that so hard to type?? Some of the posts have people really reaching out for something, anything. Only to see of the 1,000+ people that have seen there message only 9 felt there concerns important enough to reply!??? I think we all came here at first feeling the same way. Scared, nervous, out of place. It doesn't have to be!! Could we all just reach out a little more, even if you have nothing better to say than Hi, hope you feel better soon! We all hear it in our daily lives, it means so much more coming from someone who KNOWS how you feel because they've been there. This is such an awesome resource for us all and will only be as helpful as WE make it! SO PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Let's all reach out a little more!
