Lady Brannon...

Lady b:

where are you located - I think I would like to talk to you? I think we are both perhaps off the mark and just haven't started off on the right foot!

I think your site is a great place, I read all of the threads prior to posting. You support and responses have been both insightful and helpful....I don't think that you should depart form active participation...I have been wrong in the past and I seem to be very wrong on this as well.

I think the three year old in me came out and I got myself into a pissing contest....Why I cannot justify...Let's just say that I got hurt and struck back...Menpause, new dx of lupus, having to quit my job....Who can say what caused this.

I was wrong to respond as I did and would love to make amends....

Please pm with your phone number so I can call an apologize privately as well as hoping that you will accept this more public apology for my hyper sensitivity.

I was wrong, will you give me another chance?

how about a new start? Stephanie

Hey, please don't let one persons opinion cause you to doubt your self!!
We need you and all you give us even when I know you must not feel well enough to do this.
Read my last post if you haven't already, please!!
If you need a break, we understand, but don't do it for thinking you have upset someone. We appreiate all your time and knowledge, and would miss you greatly!!
When you were in the hospital, it was sad for all of us who love you!

Lady brannon posts have helped many people on this forum. Unfortunately you can not please everyone all the time. I personally want to thank her for her efforts in helping people. Lady brannon is a great asset to ehealthforum. I hope she continues to post.

I wil repeat this post here....

Thanks....I agree that I have over reacted.

I apologize for all of the counter-productive posts generated....

However I think it is just wonderful that the faithful of the site have stood up for lady b and shown her that one moronic user (myself) does not represent how much all of you care for her participation and support.

Stephanie: again, I am so very sorry that I offended you. I did not, from the bottom of my heart, mean to hurt your feelings or be rude. Yes, I would like to start again. I would like very much to be friends.

I think maybe sometimes I take lupus a bit too seriously, but it has made such a difference in my life, good and bad, that I am very passionate about it. I am sure all of you can relate. This is not an easy disease in any form. We are *all* dealing with a lot. We all have bad/good days.

I don't really know what else to say, but that I am truly sorry that I hurt your feelings.

Something that I think would be a good idea...And a way for us to get to know one another better: I have been wanting to put together a faq about lupus. Your knowledge and passion about the disease seems to be as large as mine...So would you be interested in taking over the cutaneous lupus section of the faq? It would require some time on your part and us e-mailing back and forth over private e-mail. (ps- I live in raleigh, nc and will be moving to austin, tx in the next 6 months.)

to everyone else: I am sorry. If anyone else feels this way about me:
tell me! I can't change it, if I don't know how you feel! So, a *big* thanks goes to stephanie for saying this to me. I do appreciate it!

all of you mean a lot to me! So again, I am so sorry for any nastiness!

Hugs to everyone,
ladybrannon

Hi lady brannon, as for as i'm concerned I wouldn't change anything about you, except, I wish you did not have lupus !!
But then we would never have met you. That would have been a great loss on our part!!
the time I was offended, I don't even remember what it was!
I was probably just having a bad day!
wellcome back!!!!!
austin texas! Wow being a born texan, let me tell you it's a beautiful city!!!

Lady b:

i have replied privately...But will respond here as well.

Yes I would love to be a part of this site, yes I would like to be as helpful to this site as you have been, if I can...Big shoes to fill there...

To everyone else:



hi I am stephanie, recently dx with scle and glad to have found this wonderful site, with warm, caring, human and humane people.

I will if the rest of you can be as forgiving as lady b, be happy to be a part of this branch of the lupus family. If you do forgive, and accept me into your family...Remember your can't stay mad at family and you have to put up with an occasion case of "foot in mouth" disease!

Thanks - stephanie

Hi stephanie, welcome back!!
i'm glad you two were able to work things out! We all have bad days,and i'm sure we have all put our feet in our mouthes a few times none of us are perfect, lord knows i'm not!!
I will be looking forward to your input.

sharon

I havent been on in a few days, but I welcome you with open arms. We all have bad days... Always will... But I have to say, I thought I knew a lot about lupus when I started posting here. But lady b has me beat. So I just sit back and read her wisdom... She has given me questions I would have never thought to ask my Dr. With good results. And that is what this site is all about. People helping people get through this ugly disease with as little stress as possible.

I appreciate you lady b, and I hope to get to know your wisdom stephanie.

Love and big hugs,
kris
