Hi - just a quick note to say that I've been lurking on here for years and have started posting recently.  A lot of people post regularly and they're all great.  But for me, one to mention in particular is - CLKD - she is SO quick to respond to people on all forums of any topic and I think she deserves a big THANK YOU!  You're great - thank you  :)

A big thank-you from me too! You were so quick to reply and it really helps just to know there is someone who understands and empathises with all our concerns.
Joaniepat is also very helpful. Much appreciated.

Probably because we've been there and survived  ;)

Also I would rather be on here than attempting to tackle the dusting  :whist:

I too thank CLKD and others who really will never now how their replies helped when I thought I was alone during a sometimes petrifying time.

Just replying to someone who posts on here can mean so very much to that person and the effect of just knowing someone else knows how bad you feel right at that moment, gives strength and comfort.  Never to be underestimated. Took me weeks of watching others post before I eventually reached out and cried whilst doing so.

So glad I did ☺️

Unsung heroes x

That's the advantage of the internet - one can be anonymous, watch and wait and join in as necessary.  Come on in, we don't bite ........ unless there's a Y in the day  ;)

Dusting's no big deal, I hardly ever see a spot of dust in my house.  Just keep the lights dim and don't put my glasses on...

CLKD has always been there for me during the darkest years of my life.
Not just meno - more to do with life changing surgical complications caused by a hysterectomy ( which brought on the menopause). 

This forum I think has saved me on my occasions 🙏

See?? People appreciate you clkd,don't forget it.
When I first joined this forum many moons ago, I was the worst I'd ever been in this meno journey and it's your name that came up to help me with all my woes and you're a great gal too
What some people don't know is you've had a lot of grief through your life but you still always want to help others. Well done you  :-*
