Chelle,
I drop in occasionally, however, you post is the only one in months.
I hope you and your family members are ok.

Hello Walter And Chelle! Good to see you have been here. I dropped by sometime last week, and the place felt so empty. It was like being locked in a deserted library for the night.
I keep meaning to get here more often, but Life is busier than it used to be for me, and I can’t seem to balance all the pieces of my Load.
Anyone watching the Olympics? They have been quite enjoyable.
—Leigh

Thank you Michelle, (as ever), for your personal concern about me.
Rest assured I am in reasonably good health and equally in good spirits!
My reason for not posting here any longer , is that my self-worth dictates
that I refrain from doing so, and nothing to do with any personal health
concerns I may have.
Having made something like 14000 contributions in my presence here, I
feel I have done my bit , and now in my seventy seventh
year, have decided to retire from a forum which is in much need of
rejuvenation, if it is to succeed in the future.
I sincerely trust that will happen so that the future becomes bright again
For the few that remain here so that you grow much bigger, not just in
number but ideas also, combatting the lethargy that has persisted for far
to long; which in turn has almost decimated this self help fellowship.
The good news, it is not to late, if you act as team are determined to makes it happen.
If not it can’t be helped and it will fail just as My Therapy did.... and that would be a shame
for us all to bear.. past and present members a like... who like you and I tried to make a difference,
but did not quite succeed in our aim, as a result of apathy from others in or midst!
Although, I have now officially left what we had together here Michelle, I do believe have other
means of contacting me, if the need arise.
Love and special thoughts of you as ever, for being my soul mate here, David x

Yes Walter fate that we have all met on MT and that we can still find each other here.
Leigh it's so good to hear from you to. I hope your feeling better these days. I often think of you.
David, it's much understandable as to why you have not been around. Yes a ghost library just like MT. I was concerned for your health so I am happy to hear that you are fine and well. Happy seventy seventh by the way! Wow!! I will be turning 60 this July. Where has time gone? We are not older but much wiser.

chelle,
In Chinese language, it is fate and coincidence that make us meet in MT and then here.
Or in English language that we met each other in the right place at the right time.
Yours Friend Walter Chang

Yes I am here now. Not feeling the best but managing okay. Stress causes my illness to get worst and things have been stressful. Grinding my teeth every night and have to get checked for sleep apnea to find out if that's the reason I can only sleep 5-6 hours a night.
tHANKS FOR READING THIS.

Hello again all!!
Walter yes I always say everything is for a reason, although mine is in a Christian perspective. Regardless we both know that we ran across each other's path for a reason right? I'm so glad to hear your doing well.
Sketcher 2, I'm so sorry your not feeling well and I understand how stress can make an illness worse because I experience the same.
Do you know that I grind my teeth as well? I had my top removed but I still grind. Go figure and it hurts like hell because the bottom hit my gums. I have sleep apnea. I love the CPAP machine it makes me sleep so deep and I feel refreshed but I do not have one at the moment as my old neighbor started a fire to my adjoining place and then the landlord let her back in and I do believe she was maybe cooking meth but whatever it was got into my machine.so. she ruined 2 of my new CPAP machines. I'm in a new place now and going to be speaking with my doctor about getting me set up again.
David, how are you since the last post? How is Covid going in your country? It slowed down over here. The news over the war has basically taken over the news so COVID is kind of buried at the moment. But my pulmonary doc who works in the ICU confirmed it has slowed down tremendously at the moment. They are lifting the mask wearing again so I'm sure here in a couple of months that things will get out of hand Again.
Hercules, if your reading how are you?

I have much respect for you.

That is a good idea Chelle, if I could find the right people. For the first 6 months after getting home after rehab I used to have help. They came way to early in the morning and wouldn’t let me schedule them for later. Only one person was able to come in, see what needed to be done, and would do it. The others were a mish mash of poor work ethic, Laziness, and stupid. They made me nuts.
But I am going to figure it out. For one thing, I’m going to resign from being secretary for the board. That will free up a lot of time.

I totally get that. I am a caretaker and we also help out with whatever else they need such as cleaning, cooking, helping them pay bills,some of the past co-workers I've worked with were lazy. Yes, sometimes some of them are just better not to be there at all.
