Did not give support when it was needed

[QUOTE=Matteyrae]I feel bad about reading Jeff’s thread and not replying to it as he was looking to get support from us on the forum. I read a lot pf post and don’t reply to them. I feel others are so much more knowledgeable and can give better advice. In Jeff’s case he wasn’t looking for advice, only support. That is what we are here for, to give support to those that need it.
My nightly prayers include everyone on the GBS/CIDP forums and prayers that have been requested. I know God hears my prayers but I want all of you to know you are in my prayers
Jeff, if you read this, I am very sorry I didn’t post support to you with the illness you are going through.

Everyone stay safe and have a Merry Christmas.[/QUOTE]
I have been trying to find the thread Shirley and can’t find it. Which one is it? I feel guilty as I had not intention of ignoring Jeff or not lending support.

Hi Shirley,

Thank you for starting this thread. 🙂

Most times I’ll try to give support by offering prayers and thoughts, but I know people really want/need support from people have dealt with their particular issue. So, I feel rather foolish taking up space and try to allow those knowledgeable to respond.

I’m hardly a source of information, even when it comes to GBS and I suffered from it in 1991 and continue to deal with the residuals. I’ve muddled through life just dealing with the “You don’t look sick” and had zero support until I found this forum last year.

This forum has helped me tremendously and I’d never want anyone to feel that they’re alone as that isn’t a good feeling.

I want to go one step further and extend an invitation to everyone; if you need a shoulder to lean on, to vent, whatever, please send me a pm and I’ll respond.

Take care
