Thankd goodness for OrphanHawk replying or I would really be over the edge.

Again, sorry you have found some of my comments offensive and in the future I will keep my posts to you only related to treatment issues and only if asked. As you rightly said earlier, most of us really don't know each other all that well, and sometimes things can be taken for granted that shouldn't. Never meant to make fun of you, just have fun, but that obviously isn't getting communicated and I'll take my share of responsibility for that.

Well I don't remember that line, but I can see it was a hopped up speedy riba night for me,so I guess nothing would surprise me, but it does in a way because I actually don't remember that comment, tho said. But truth is always remembered and that was not something said as truth to Mike, it obviously was a joke.

But still and all I don't care for some things you have said lately and I let them slide and that is what put me in the frame of mind when I read your post. It was the straw that broke the camels back. I'm not mad at you and maybe when I am off meds, I might not understand why I felt offended by your joke. But until then this is how I feel at this moment.

Ends here. As I said, I'm tired of being the entertainment. You can look up my email if you have more to say.

Take care.

There is no reason a patient can't stay positive and at the same time approach treament sceintifically and realistically.In fact, those that have to face a slow response or a non response will have to draw on their positivity even more I would think. It isn't an either or situation, either you are positive or you consider the statistical chances, you can do both.
In no way was I saying that positivity wasn't important to better health but making treatment decisions and not using all the hard earned statistical "proof" doesn't make sense to me.
No one wants to hear negative news about their progress when they are sick but it is important they are aware of the realities of what they face in my view and with Hep C, one of the realities is that not all patients respond to treatment or respond quickly enough and at that point the approach needs reevaluating.
You seem to have taken my comments as if they were meant for Ladybug ( or anyone) personally and that isn't the case, I was speaking in general terms and not to "her" specifically.

Let me try and clarify and then I'll let it go. First, it was all a parody, in jest. I wasn't parodying that you said you wanted Mike, but the parody was that you were saying that he wanted you. I based that on your post here:

MyOwn to MikeSimon:

You will miss me. I'm sure you will read my posts and think back at the short time we had together. (when you fell in love)

Of course, I understood you were just kidding in your statement above, just like I was kidding in my parody.

One thing I've learned from this is that everyone has a different sense of humor and/or I'm not always good at conveying what I think I am.

Well, I'm done here, and if you're still mad at me, so be it, but not sure why you're taking it out on Mike by not posting to him anymore. I wrote the parody. Mike did not.

Enuf said by me on this.

Be well everyone,

MO MO:I don't care for comments such as this one that you made "I'd be insulted but I know that's code talk for you really want me."
---------------------------------------------
I'm a little puzzled because what I was doing was a paradody of statements you've already made to Mike, and unless my memory is worse than I think it is, you have used similar words yourself regarding Mike "wanting" you. Haven't you?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Never ever.  I have joked and said his personality has improved etc, but never nothing of that nature to him or any man.

Lets drop it. As I said, so that there is no confusion, I won't post to Mike anymore and whoever else I choose not to converse with.

And ya know what I can smell the Paul Newmans popcorn on the forum. I'm tired of being everyones entertainment.

You are blessed to have a family of strong believers. And yes there are more and more scientists becoming believers, without a doubt.

If you can get a hold of the book  "Origins and Destiny" by Dr. Robert Gange, it is a great read. You and your family would love the book.

That's great that you have a principal who believes. That was so nice of her to pray with you. He watches over us and sends us who we need just at the right time. Always amazes me.
