Anne

Thanks for the add..I look forward to meeting new friends with MS on your site Stan. We must keep on fighting to beat this Dam Disease. Blessing

Charlotte

Thank you Stan
I would like to say thank you for adding me to the site. It is really nice to see that I'm not alone and my experiences aren't abnormal or anything! I've been afraid to really integrate my MS diagnosis into my life and I've been hiding from the world instead. I've just been angry and bitter and terribly depressed, internally anyway, because I'm not the type to express the emotions outwardly. So I want to thank everyone for giving me a safe and understanding place to reveal those types of feelings without fear that people will mistake it as something personal about themselves. I only hope that one day I can come to the level I see so many of the other members of this site at! Charlotte

Poetic Diva

I just wanted to thank you for the add seeing so many others that have MS makes me feel like Im not alone thanks - Poetic Diva

Thanks for all your support, everyone. you all were there for me when I really needed huggs and I thank you all for that. It's hard for someone as independant as I am to admit that you need others to help you when your down and You all are a great support to me and I could do this with out you guys.
thank you!

Jen

Hi Stan, Angels, and other dear friends! It's hard to thank all of you individually for all the hugs and support you have given to me the last several days while I have being going through a very difficult phase with my MS. It has definitely lifted my spirits, given me strength knowing there are others out there that know what I'm facing and going through.
Words can't even begin to express how much all of your kind comments and words of encouragement have meant to me. I feel extermely blessed to be apart of this wonderful site. I just can't say thank you enough for all that you guys have done for me. I hope that I will be able to be there for each and every one of you if you should ever need anything down the road. May God bless you for being so understanding and caring!

Hello Stan , I just wanted to Thank You and all of the ANGELS for there support and prayers. Though I have not spoken to him yet. I did get a message/email from him. He said he..s fine. Though he didn..t say which arm and hand. Only one arm and hand was hurt. He was cut up due to the glass that surrounds him and a few pieces of scrap metal. The glass actually SAVED him. He had numerous cuts mostly from the glass. Cept he does have a piece of scrap metal in his hand. They told him it will heal. He said as soon as he could get to a phone he..d call me. he..d hoped it would be Sat. but he..ll try on Sunday. Alot of the power is cut do to mortars and black outs . He Thanks You all for being there for his Mother. And for all the prayers. I would also like to Thank You in behalf of my son; As well as myself. With all of Gods Graces We Thank You All. Love Jeanie

I wanted to let you know that I really appreciate the 'add' and the service you render to so many people who are in need and in pain. I read the experiences and words of comfort from other people, and they lift me up.

Hello Stan~~~ I just wanted to send a quick note that say thank you so much to you and all your angels and all the support that everyone gave!! I went into doing those 2 MRI's with a whole different attitude and outlook because I really felt like I had all your angels in that tube with me! I think I was actually smiling thru all the noise and walked away with no headache like I usually do!! This place is nothing short of a miracle for me and I know so many others feel the same way!!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
One of your loyal angels
DeeDee~~

Michael

Thanks for creating this support group Stan. I was dx'd in Aug 06 and was lucky enough to find your myspace page. It has helped me get over the dx and understand the disease more. I was feeling like the only person w/MS, since I really didnt know anyone else that had it. Ive been visiting the blog posts since you first started the page. I thank you & all the Angels for bringing peace to my mind and helping me get through the toughest time in my life...so far. ~Michael

MIMI

This is all new to me and was very scary to me as well. This is a great place to be. I use to think I was the only one with MS. MIMI

Stacey

Thank you so much, Stan, for the post. You have already been a big part of my life, as I access your blogs every time I get on the computer. I used to write more comments, but have been forced to move in with my parents, as this nasty disease has taken my job, car, and home away from me. I lived in town up until a little over a month ago and had DSL. Now I live in the country (over a big hill in Tennessee) and can't get a good connection. I suffer with the dinasaur connection just to get to my friends and to get the info I need. One day, we will be able to get a better connection, and when we do, you will see more comments from me, as I want to help others just as well. You have been a blessing to all of us. Again, thank you, and much love! XOXO Stace

Tina

STAN THE MAN - I JUST WANTED TO SAY THANK YOU FOR ALL THAT YOU DO FOR US. THIS PLACE YOU HAVE PROVIDED HAS BECOME MY HAVEN. I AM SO PROUD OF YOU AND WHAT YOU DO EACH DAY AND HOW MUCH YOU GIVE OF YOURSELF. IT MAKES ME A VERY HUMBLE PERSON. YOU ARE MY HERO..THANK YOU FOR FINDING ME..GOD KNEW I NEEDED YOU AND ALL OF MY ANGELS..

donni4

I figured that you give out hugs every day, so you deserve one yourself Stan. Much love and respect.
BE SAFE, BE STRONG.

CeeCee

Hi Stan....Thank you so much... you bring smiles to me!!Just to know that there is a whole entire webpage of people and friends that are there if I ever have a question or need someone to talk to!!! It's just incredible... take care Stan and I hope you had a great weekend!

TINA

HI STAN THE MAN - I GOT MY TATOO ON SAT, AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PUT IT IN YOUR SLIDE SHOW. IT DIDN'T HURT AT ALL, I ALMOST FELL ASLEEP A COUPLE OF TIMES...

BUT THE BEST PART WAS THAT I GOT TO MEET DIANA AND WE WENT TOGETHER... I HAVE A PICTURE OF US BOTH.

I HAVE YOU TO THANK FOR THAT.. I MET A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY WHO IS SASSY AND FUNNY AND I LOVE HER.. SHE AND I HAVE SO MUCH IN COMMON, BUT WE ARE LINKED BY HAVING MS. FINALLY A FRIEND THAT I CAN ACTUALLY HUG AND CALL AND HANG OUT WITH AND CAN RELATE TO WHAT IS GOING ON WITH HER AND VICE VERSA.

I CRIED WHEN I GOT HOME, IT WAS A REALLY TOUCHING DAY FOR ME. TWO ANGELS MEETING ONE ANOTHER. I KNOW YOU REALIZE WHAT A GIFT THIS IS TO BOTH OF US.. WHEN I STARTED TO TATOO CONTEST, I NEVER DREAMED I WOULD END UP WITH A FRIEND.. ONE THAT I CAN COUNT ON. SHE FILLED A LITTLE EMPTY SPOT IN MY HEART.

HOW DO I EVER THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR WHAT YOU DO? BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER, SUPPORTING, LOVING AND EMPATHIZING WITH PEOPLE JUST LIKE YOU. I KNOW YOU GET SO MANY POSTINGS A DAY AND WORK SO HARD.

I HOPE YOU KNOW THAT WE ALL APPRECIATE IT.. TODAY, AS I REFLECT BACK ON WHEN I STARTED ON YOUR BLOG, I HAVE LEARNED A LOT, BECOME FRIENDS WITH OTHERS, HAVE WANTED TO REACH OUT TO OTHERS AND TAKE THEIR PAIN FOR THEM SO THEY DIDN'T HAVE TO SUFFER, I HAVE LEARNED THAT IT IS O.K. TO VENT, LAUGH, BE A REBEL, AND KINDNESS THAT I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED BEFORE.

I THANK YOU FROM MY HEART AND SO DOES DIANA.

YOU DID THAT. BROUGHT US TOGETHER.

I KNOW THANK YOU IS NEVER ENOUGH. BUT I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME, YOUR EFFORTS, YOUR CONCERNS FOR OTHERS AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL SOUL.

THANK YOU MY DEAR FRIEND..
BIG XXXOOO

GOD BLESS
TINA

Hi Stan, I can't begin to tell you what your site means to me. Just reading all the MANY stories I can SO relate to and seeing, and contributing to, all the support - it's priceless. I've had ms for 13 years and have joined many online communities. Never has there been one of this magnitude. It's the only group I belong to now. It's heartwarming and astounding to see the difference you have made in the lives of so many. And the added benefit of Dr. Vollmer's wisdom (as my own and FAVORITE neurologist :O) is invaluable!! Stan, your dedication is inspiring! So thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you do!! ~jen

Sherry C.

Hi Stan, I wanted to say thank you and say that your site is an exmple of why I have said on many occasions in the past 24 years, that MS is the biggest blessing of my life. It has introduced me to friends, taught me about hope, love, faith and un-conditional support. I might not ever have had these lessons without MS.

Thank you for being such a loving Angel in my life and many, many others. peace, love,
Jayce

Hi Everyone, I am overwhelmed and deeply grateful for both Stan and all that responded to my question about how to deal with the cold. I didnt have this problem last year and I was the self appointed "snow brusher-offer" of the cars in my parking lot when it snows. This year, I can barely walk from the resultant chaos of my body's attempt to shiver.

I'm still so used to being a "helper" and always sought a vehicle to do so through firefighting, fundraising, etc. It's truley heartwarming to know that there are others who have the grace to be there when it's my turn to be "in need." Thank You!

Be Safe, Be Warm, Be Healthy, Fight Strong. -Jayce

Stan...I do not have MS...nor personally know anyone who does... but I was born with three CHD's...or Congential Heart Defects...I've had countless Open Heart Surgeries...I also have a pacemaker...and I do know what it's like to deal with depression and pain through anything that hurts your body... I want you to know that I'm very grateful to have found your site...because even though I don't suffer MS...the pain and fatigue from Heart Disease is relative...God Bless ALL of you with MS or any Disease...please let me know if you need anything Stan!!! xoxo, Erin aka Heart Girl,,
