this board.....

ok so maybe i'm a bit hormonal and gushy this morning but i just wanted to say that the members of this board are fantastic and the support that everyone gives is amazing.

i have just read flowerpots post and the replies she received and the offers of help really touched me. it's so lovely that people are willing to give up their time to help others that they probably will never really know in real life.

BR is a frightening prospect for many people and places like this help to put it into perspective and know that you are not alone in what is a scarey place.


keep up the good work guys, you're all wonderful.

    I agree...

    The board got me through it with loads of help, advice and support. I didn't want to involve friends or family and it meant I could do it all on my own.
    Marvellous!

  • Without the good people on here, I know I would have been stressed out even more than I was pre BR. The help on the board is truly astonishing and a credit to the human race. Even now, post BR I come back time and time again to help, support and give reassurance as best I can.

    The charities do a fine job under immense pressure and with little funding, for that we must be truly grateful but I did find the help, support and all the info I needed by interaction from this marvelous community:T
