Love ya Belle!!!
Wonderful words from a wonderful lady!! :-)
It has been a little frustrating in here of late. But like you I
realise its just that some are having a bad day with their endo...
By the way i lost you off the msn messenger accidentally last night I'll
resend one to you. So sorry Belle, but can you link up to me again as i
want to catch up in normal chat mode.
Thanx take care and once again, thanx also for your words. i hope that
the new girls realise how important this site is and to also take care
of it and each other.
lotsa love
Keri

>I hate to see disharmony on the forum..As I have only dropped by to say hi...and then I had a thought and this is it...
>The documentary" Endo The Inside Story" was made so that we all had a tool to help us firstly to understand our endo and what it looked like and what leading experts were and are still saying and to also to help educate the rest of the ignorant world, doctors included ....To dispell myths like Hysterectomy being a Cure thats a drastic mistake for someone to be told this false and Wrong information and the other famous one is...
> Have a Baby...I am still trying to get pregnant and its been many, many years..its a great way for some to help settle their endo but others like myself can't get pregnant so its not an option to even give it a go..! and other sufferers it can set their endo off worse...there is no right way with endo..its one of the most controversial diseases.
>Well the Good news is that .... now its much easier since the documentary Endometriosis - The Inside Story was made available for all the endo sufferers around the world ( its available from every Endometriosis Association around the world, we are all linked to each other... one way or other)
>
>The actual Documentary was made by 2 sufferers who were both desperate for help and to get the message accross to the world, especially doctors, family members and Husbands and partners..we need everyone educated so the can help us to cope with this insidious, painful, degrading, debilitating and humiliating disease commonly known as Endo. Please lets all join together to help educate the public and doctors,please take a copy to your local doctors and offer for them to watch your copy of the video and try and educate as many people as you can..its in all our best interest and its the easiest tool we have.
>I see there are a few problems on the forum to do with controversial issues..Well my favourite quote from a close friend who is in the documentary and that is Lorraine Henderson, Founder and President of The First Australian Endometriosis Association in Victoria...Her Quote is
>" The only consistency with Endometriosis are the Inconsistencies " Its now a well known endo quote.
>If you watch the documentary then you would understand why..there a few members like Lauren who have personally seen the documentary, along with many other knowledgable endo sisters..listen to them ( Like Kerrie and many others who know the myths and the truths) they have researched and learned the correct information..remember your endo sisters are here for you, not against you ...thats why its called an Endo support forum..leave your hormones at home before you boot up..We are all hormonally challenged here and the ladies are also sensitive...just like you and me...we all have a horrible disease..please make it better for each other not worse.
>Wishing all the angels .. Peace, Strength, Love and Happiness and courage to make it through.
>Hang in there Angels remember you are not alone and that everything keeps changing and there will always be... better days in the near future.. My Thoughts and prayers are with you all.. for many pain free days to come
