I'm just reflecting on how my journey started here and the help I received has changed my frame of mind and life. I'm now alone, but not. I've got a chance to share my journey and it gives me a purpose. You are all my Valentines! I just wanted you to know. It's not like we're 8 yo and I can hand one to you in a classroom. I urge everyone here not to forget those who were led here,I don't know if it was fate or research. Today, of all days, remember how each one on the forum showed love and compassion!

Thank you all hugely. Just beginning my journey here after landing here time and time again when I had questions that no one else could answer. Everything is out of control, but i”m here, and i also hope to be someone’s beacon and solace and source of actionable info one day.

I am glad we have helped you.

I had an internet friend who sent me an article from this site. I went on to join the forum. Mom passed in 2017 and I stayed on hoping I could help someone else.

Beethoven,
So glad you are staying to help.
I think it is the best honor we can do to our loved ones, this staying on after, this remembering when we came here feeling so helpless, and trying to give back by perhaps helping someone on.

I found my way here in the darkest hours of caring for my father. My rock, the rudder, He was so much alive and everything until, stroke, hospital, rehab, home, awful. Nothing he would have wanted. I took over and steered the ship. Thru many stormy seas. Always trying to do what he would do. Many doubts, so much stress and anxiety. He died 6 months ago at 94 years. I still wonder about many things and my life is far from back to normal. This forum has been a source of strength and guidance and solid experience and solace. And support. I’m grateful. I comment when something prompts me but I’m still reading and learning from everyone here. It’s been so valuable to me.

How kind of you! Most of us came here feeling overwhelmed by something in our lives and came away with new knowledge and encouragement. I’m so glad you have too
