Trav stepping down - (Part 2)

As I've said, you are all my family!!! I'm going to miss not being so involved with you all, but my focus of course must be on my own health.

As a side note - psoriasis not only is due to an overactive immune system, but it also means that the body isn't detoxing as well as it needs to be. I've known for a long time that my body doesn't think detoxing is as important as my brain does, so that's one of my main focuses - getting my body to detox as well as possible again and working on regulating my immune system. Both things I should be well versed in by now!! LOL!

And something that I neglected to say earlier - I wish us all a smooth healing path....and when it's not so smooth, I each of us a good sense of humor and a good friend to reach out to!!!

So to say a thank you to those that I haven't yet:

Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm so glad to know that this forum has been a help for you! That's what it's all about, right? Helping each other through.

And yes, a break from all of this sure would be nice! I'm pretty tired of being ill to be honest.

Just me
Gosh!! You sure gave us all a scare with how sick you got!!! We have watched your ups and downs and I think all of our hearts have followed along, raising up with your 'ups' can come crashing down when you would post that you were having troubles again.

Your kinds words are a bit overwhelming - I don't feel like I did anything other than reach out to a "sister" that was desperate - like others have done for me from time to time in life. I'm so glad to know that this forum has been so helpful to you during some of those dark times. That's what I pray this forum does for many who find themselves in those dark times. I know it was a life line for me for many years.
Thank you so much for your kind words.

Thank you for what you said -"I don't think Traveler would be so closed-minded to deny a cure if it actually came about. Quite the opposite! She was simply giving advice that remaining healthy seems to be the best option at this point."

Those words are so true!!! If there were truly a "cure" for Lyme, I would be one of the first to yell from the rooftops what it is!! And you can ask anyone who has heard me yell - I would definitely be one of the loudest ones yelling about it too!! Giggle!!! No one has ever accused me of not yelling loud enough!

Thank you for your kind words about me being a Mod as well - they are greatly appreciated and heart felt.

Trav,

I'm sorry to hear you're stepping down but you have to do what's best for you. You were there for me when I first signed up and emailed you for advice and I appreciate that. I wish I had a miracle cure for your psoriasis issue but the only thing I can think of is a bioavailable curcumin like Meriva or BCM-95 and a good oil for the skin like Hemp which would actually help the curcumin absorb better if taken at the same time. Whatever you try I hope it works for you and hope to see you back here from time to time. Best of luck to you!

 

I have been having a rough time again, seizures , and pain, but I have learned there are so many ups and downs with this disease.

Sometimes just going on this website , and knowing that other people know what we are going through makes it a little easier. I have found tons of information on here, that has helped me so much a long the way, not to mention the moderators helping with questions, and when I felt I was at the end of my rope.

It's kind of a like a family, and I really appreciate all that you have done for me , and everyone else on this website. There are days that I can't get down to the computer, but when I can I really enjoy reading everyone's posts.

Thank you again.

Wow, what a bummer! I've been off and on this forum for almost 2 years now and Traveler, you've often been there to help me through my panic moments! This thing has done a number on my brain! Thank you for giving your time and energy to helping others. It's really not easy to put yourself out there like you do. I admire you for taking it on the chin as often as you do, and yet return to help. I have benefited from your help and i hope and pray you get the support you need in your journey with psoriasis. I will be sad to not see your responses anymore:(

Many blessings to you!

Hi again Traveler,

I really just wanted to get notified of any more postings. Mental hugs your way.  Some how I know the world of psoriasis sufferers just got brighter.
