To all:
I will no longer be posting on this forum and would like to say goodbye to those I have come to know as kindred spirits with a loved one suffering/fighting from or having lost the battle to brain cancer. I have become very attached to several of you and your stories and will continue to remember you and pray for you, as well as a cure.
I began entering this message forum to try to help others who were going through the same thing my sister and I went through with our mom (the true hero and fighter), but it has turned into a forum that is out of control in some areas, where people who are hurting are getting cussed out because they don't respond in the way someone expects them to, and I can no longer be a part of that. Dealing with my own grief, it just makes me more sad and causes more pain to watch others handle things by being so hurtful and unkind.
Many may not agree with me and that is ok, but I have learned in life to remove myself from situations in my life that cause me more unnecessary grief and heartache than what I need. There are some very special and unique individuals that will be able to bring a lot of comfort and strength to this forum, and possibly some who willl enjoy seeing me go-that's ok too.
Right now I have to realize I am not helping on here anymore...so with that said, I say good bye to all of you and my best wishes for you are your families fighting cancer. It is God, prayer, family, friends, and time that helps.
Much love and Merry Christmas,
Jennifer (TN)
