You all amaze me!
« on: June 01, 2006, 12:20:17 pm »
I have been here about a month and im so amazed at everyone here. I have never felt such compassion, love, and support from so many people. Hubby and I have only told a couple of people of his status. They are very supportative but they have no idea of what we are going thru or about to go thru. You all have been a true blessing to me.

I love u all

My Dear Teresa,

The reason for this is because we are walking on your pathway, and we were here all along.  When you needed the help, you simply opened up and came along the same pathway.  Think what the future that this board and community might bring into your lives.  Hmmmm the anticipation keeps me coming back for more and more and more and more.  It is just plain fun, and the support is priceless!

So glad you opened up, and let us in to help out with your new life.  You will both do fine, and the future is not as bleak as some would like us to believe. 

In Love and Support.

This doesn't mean that God doesn't love heterosexuals,
It's just that they need more supervision.

Dear Teresa,

We are all here because we are affected one way or another by HIV.
We can scream, cry, laugh & bitch at each other.
We can also hurt, forgive & love each other !!
Blessings of the bug !! but at the end of the day , we come out better & stronger,
BECAUSE we have each other !! & Aidsmeds.

I hope your hubby decides to join us.. or at least maybe read some... I would have been lost without this forum.... but at least YOU are here.   You need support too in this time.

The popular phrase here is "It's okay, I understand.  I'm positive too"
(credit i think goes to Rab, but my short-term memory isn't what it used to be)

That really sums up these forums and I'm glad you have found them.   Together we are much stronger than the sum of our parts.

That is the power of this forum.

Hi Teresa!

You are such a welcome member to our group! I can't remember if I ever told you 'Welcome', and if I didn't, forgive me (better late than never, doll........)

Even after several months posting on our forums, I still get a 'rush' when I know I can go on-line, and someone will be there for me. I can always count on that, and a new format to the site will not dent that reality for me.

Always good to hear from you, hope you and your husband are hangin' in.......

Love,

Zephyr (who really misses the little lips icon thingy........and the rose!!)
