Good morning circle girls...........well it is a very wet cold day here in North Texas.......stopping by to check on everyone.........the circle reminds me of the beginning of "A Tale of Two Cities".....it is the best of times it is the worse of times..........many are moving on with their lives and many are still struggling..........just so proud to be a part of this supportive place regardless of were we are in this hell of a journey of breast cancer..........Ames came to check on you and make sure that chemo cocktail is doing its job.......I guess the kiddo's arm has healed and he is back to playing his guitar........you keeping the animals warm.........Puppy looks like you are back to your old self..........hope you are doing well..........you keep this place so grounded........Charlene hope the new girls are all soft and mushy.......
........a nice soft place the the daughters to lay their heads.........Jas you seem to be so happy.........glad you are doing well..........ok guys work is quiet today.....going to do some more exploring around and see what's up......everyone have a grand day.........looks like we are going to have a "Yankee Super bowl"..........later gators.........Shokk0 -
Shokk ... Nice to see you! It seems like so long that I've talked to you! I'm excited about the Super Bowl this year. Some years not so much but the Pats could go all the way undefeated or if the Giants win it would be an upset! I just hope it's a good game! My girls are definitely softer but still have a ways to go ... PS says about 4 months for them to settle and soften completely...but my girls can lay their heads on them and it's so nice again.
Hope you are doing well. Don't be such a stranger! 0 -
Pat, just wanted to say hi and send hugs your way. It is so hard to wait for information!
I am so saddened by the news of CTG. My condolences to her family in this difficult time.
I am on my lunchbreak so I don't have time to read back right now but I will try to come back later! I wish I had today off, but at least traffic is a lot lighter!
*Hugs*

Welcome, Kristin, I don't think we've met. I wish I had the day off too.
Welcome to you too,Pat. Waiting is the hardest part. I think a 2nd opinion is a good idea,also. We will hold your hand the step of the way.
Have a good afternoon,
Hugs and prayers,
Candie

Hi PAT, welcome to the circle of love er wagons! I too would say get a second opinion, my second opinion probably saved my life! Also do you have a friend you can talk to? I think you need someone else to talk to about this that might be able to help you through this locally.
Prayers for CTG's family in this time of grief.

That's a very suggestive picture. I don't know who any of you are but that last post sounded as if he has some kind of sexual feelings for Angel. He calls HER sick. tsk tsk Yet he's telling her to open her wings for him......
Pretty spicy stuff. I had to comment.

Where exactly is he telling her to open her wings for HIM?

Blue...read the writing on the picture above Peter's writing.

Yeah I did. Aren't you jumping to conclusions though? It looks like a poster with prewritten words on it. Could be a poem or a song. Unless he is the author, then you are assuming something that may not be. You know the old saying when one assumes it makes a "bum" out of u and me. hehehehe
ETA - no offense to anyone btw

Too bad only a couple of people saw the pic before a few got together and decided to delete it. So, we're left with Lynn's and Jas' comment and Blues. Well, Blue ... I'm usually on your wavelength. Thanks lots CheriLynn and Jas for starting something needlessly again.

Hugs & prayers to all and welcome to the new gals

Oh my...post an angel and have it called "sexual"...come on. That is seriously laughable. It was a poem...it was not sexual..twisting the meaning of things is so sad.
sorry I stopped in here...goin back to the comfy couch...best to all.

Bren -- I was only answering Blue's questions. Sorry if you see that as causing trouble.

Everything had gone back to normal Bren until YOU brought it back up, you didn't see it yourself, you can't base your own opinion on it
Vickie, I suggest you stay on your comfy couch, it suits you. Don't try to talk intelligently. Just post your song lyrics and wear your rose colored glasses. You wouldn't know the truth if it slapped you in the face. JMHO

Cheri,
You can always delete my post or report me to the Mods.

Sorry if I sounded abrasive, but being a woman of very few words, I tend to look at things technically. Having a lawyer in the family keeps one on her toes too.
What I meant to say was that even though some may have seen an implication in the words on the angel poster that could tie in, technically, it can be said there was no implication at all, and should not have been deleted. JMO.

Blue -- that is too funny. I love it.

Cases are won or lost on one word.
In this case it would be a "lost" because of the word "him".
0 -
Blue -- you sound like you are the lawyer in the family. I do know that cases can turn on a word. Remember the infamous Bill Clinton dilemma on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. ROFL!

Okay... I've sat idly by and watched this childish nonsense go on for far too long.
Charlene is only 10 months out from her diagnosis and has had a He##ish year as many of you have... She has just as much of a right to post here on these boards as each and every one of you do. She has the right to post and enjoy the love and support of those who wish to share it with her. She should not have to always be looking over her shoulder and always being made to feel that she has to defend herself.
First off was the attack on one of her friends... so she manned up and defended her friend (which any one of you would... and have done) She was criticized for it... then it was the senseless attack on her for answering a simple question with an honest answer... so that person publicly defamed her on another board... which she was banned from and her posts written in self defense were deleted (however the attack on her was not). All of this done by people who claim to be loving and supportive. I'm sick and tired of the insulting and childish games.
With regards to the angel picture posted previously; I for one was offended by the picture... Yes, it was a poem, a poem I'm certain the poster read before posting it and the content of the poem was insinuating and insulting. It made reference to her as the Evil Angel and asked her to open her wings for "me"... said the poster. There is not one of you on this board that would not have been upset with that post, not to mention, your SO's would not have taken kindly to something like that being posted on a public board about the one that they love. There needs to be accountability for what is written on this public world wide accessible message board. The post was inappropriate and was rightfully removed.
So, let's try to be real and not diminish the intent and content of the post and let's stop the BS and stop trying to make Charlene feel guilty for standing up and defending herself against what are obvious insults.
Those of you who seem to always feel the need to come down on her and her friends tout yourselves as wanting to show support and share love to others and are seemingly above all the childish behavior... You say that you want to welcome others and you can't understand why there are some people on the boards who can't let it go... or stop showing hate. You need to take a good long look in the mirror and realize that you are in fact doing exactly what you try to blame others for all the time. YOU need to let it go.

OK....once again, with all the she and us and them and...with all the deleted and missing posts I can't make heads or tails of any of this.....I can't keep the players straight without a scorecard.
Karl and Angel - I certainly hope that nothing I have said was construed as being mean or negative toward you. If so, please know it was not my intention.
I know that people have felt a need to choose sides over things lately. I still don't know who is on which side and frankly, don't want to.
All I know is that we have all been affected with breast cancer. All of us have wounds. Please, let's not make the wounds worse. We don't have to all be best friends....let's just try and play nice.
Peace
Deb C

You know what. I have been trying to stay out of this whacked out situation, but since I'm having a good night as far as my Parkinson's symptoms are concerned, I'm gonna go against my better judgement and say what's on my mind.
As an observer, I would say that Charlene is an overly sensitive individual and tends to misconstrue what is written. She has taken offense, where I personally would have laughed it off. I know she has been through a lot. We all have and some of our burdens are heavier than others. But this is a forum where there are women from all walks of life with different life experiences, different senses of humour. I have seen many things in this thread but the most important thing that is missing is TOLERANCE. The world does not revolve around Charlene, or me , or you, or anyone else.
The written word is so much more different than a face to face conversation. That should be kept in mind at all times.
Sorry for my 2 cents but there is childishness going on here from every corner and I don't think anyone should be pointing fingers.
I usually try to diffuse a situation with some comic relief, which I tried earlier, but it didn't work so I went serious on you.

Deb .. No, you certainly didn't. Others have and it's been well intended. You would have been highly offended by the Evil Angel poster post that for some reason other women just happened to stop by here who very rarely come here and felt like rushing to Peters defense on. There was no reason for him to post it. It's well known that he doesn't like me and he did it for no other reason than to be insulting. I'm tired of hurting when I come to the boards. I don't care to be liked by everyone. I agree on the playing nice. I just want to be left alone by those who don't like me and be supported in my breast cancer journey. I have support to offer to others as well.
It's sad that during all this drivel nobody even noticed that CY posted. Well I did. I'm sorry she had to stop by during this nonsense. Thanks and peace.

I have found Angel Charlene very kind and supportive with a wonderful sense of humor. After the picture I saw today and the poem on it and what that guy, Pierre or what ever his name is wrote, I would be extremely upset over it. There was nothing funny or humorous about that or no way to say she was confused. It was one of the worst insults I've ever seen.

Two women have already been run off this board after you asked them to "just go away" in one of your earlier posts.
FYI I come here many times a day. Just because I don't post is not an indication that I haven't seen what's been going on.
As far as defending Peter. You took that as my defending him. That was not my intention so once again someone has ASSUMED.

Blue... I never claimed that the world revolved around her, or anyone else for that matter. You're absolutely right, tolerance is the answer and would be wonderful, but it's a two way street and should be exercised by all parties involved.
I simply stated that she doesn't deserve to be treated the way she has been, nor does anyone else on this board. I only ask that she be treated with some respect as you would wish to be. I would say that her getting upset over this post is being misconstrued as being overly sensitive when in fact it is not due to all she's been through. She has a wonderful sense of humor but what's been done is simply not funny by any definition of the word. Okay, I'm done.

I'm not playing Blue so just drop it.

Charlene -- you do have friends here and you have every right to continue posting here. Gentle hugs.
