Hi kay -

TIMS has so many topics re:ms that it can keep you busy for some time. I hate to brag but I must say that this is an intelligent as well as empathetic board around. And one doesn't have to know rocket science because there are people here that can explain it to us common folk

There is no one trying to "convert" anyone to any type of treatment. We are adults and we make our own decisions. There are all sorts of info on TIMS regarding all sorts of therapies and results from those who have tried them. Again this is personal choice. And that is why CCSVI recieved its own forum so it would not cloud any other forum.......

My experience is that my friends are in denial...they cannot accept that their friend who was once strong and a go getter is now quieter and sedate...I will talk w/them on the phone and I will have to remind them of my condition. This is the same w/ my family. Yes I gues your true friends will sick it out w/you and the others will fade away. (not that I had a ton of friends as i did when i was younger anyway. Being older seems to weed out alot of the misfits.) I just try to maintain a support system some only know me having MS.

Make new friends but keep the old...One is silver and the other gold.

Goodbye dear friend

This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing some of Holly's posts with us, Sharon. Her voice lives on with us, even though her spirit has moved ahead. It's going to be unreal to me for a long time. God bless you, Holly...for all you did for so many. We are so indebted to you-

Goodbye Holly

I always had this kind souls mental picture of her just from her screen name initially, and then as I interacted with her later. I imagine there's a story behing everyone's screen name and I always pictured her as someone ready at a moments notice to play peekabo with a child. It saddened me yesterday to delete my "friend request pending" on Facebook for Holly since she was at Stanford when I sent it. It was like closing a door. She will give me strength when I feel like giving up. That's how I'll remember her.

Words seem so inadequate.
How could I have a friend I never met? How could I lose her? I don't know, but I have.
Rest peacefully, Holly.
I would be very interested in contributing to any charities or donations in Holly's memory. Maybe her family would be willing to share that with us?

N
Holly's sister will be sending a message to the forum in the next few weeks. I will ask her to put donation information in her message.

Thanks
Sharon

Maybe we could donate to TIMS in Holly's memory.

Who runs/owns TIMS?

Has anyone got an email address for them? I have an idea.

Under the FAQ tab on the home page of TIMS

Who runs this site?
We are a group of friends who have been affected by MS in various ways--some are generally interested in autoimmune diseases, some have it, some have significant others who have it, others still have best friends or parents. All of us are disgusted with the state of treatments today and at the same time, brimming with excitement over what is being done in the research and drug pipeline field.

We are taking a stance of anonymity for a reason-- this site is to remain unbiased and focused on MS, not us. We contribute by using our skills to create a community and fill it with content, the rest is up to our users such as yourself

You can also donate to the upkeep of the site...scroll down on the home page..lower left hand corner.
Aaron is the name of the administrator

Any information on where to make a donation in Holly's name?

make new friends but keep the old, some are silver the other are gold

It's hard to say goodbye Holly....

Sleep sweetly dear friend.... I will remember you always

I wanted to post a picture of lavender here, but couldn't figure it out. Holly was lovely in her posts, I think I would have liked her in person. My deepest sympathies to her loved ones.

Hello to you all...(and Ciao to Cheer)...I have spent the last few days reading everything in CCSVI from the beginning, as I didn't want to miss a thing...I feel like I actually 'know' some of the people here...like Holly...and now I come up this thread, "Memorial for Holly" and I have been searching for hours to try to find out what happened to her...can someone please tell me? I felt like I had the wind knocked out of me...I will introduce myself as soon as I can find which place is appropriate...any suggestions would be welcome as I no longer want to feel like a voyeur, but want to join you all...and I believe I may have something to contribute...but, first, please...what happened to Peekaboo? Thank you...Lisa aka CNClear
