Sometimes almost every one of us gets it wrong, one way or another, and sometimes we just have to think a little bit longer before hit the send button.

Wassup, hun ?
I'm sad when well meaning posters get upset about being editted or deleted. Their heart is in the right place but not as sharp as others at typing their opinions well enough not to offend.
I wish people would realize. We arent all the same.
No tolerance in this world anymore!
Too many people too easily offended without looking through the well meaning text.
Not everyone is deliberately nasty. Some just make a typing mistake and the wolves pounce!
I'm very sad to see well meaning people heartlessly harshly treated. Especially when their in their later years.
No one is perfect.
Some need to learn a bit respect.
It breaks my heart.
I hate bullies!

So do I, honey. I really feel for this lovely lady, who has been very kind and supportive during her short time on the forum. I can't comment on the situation, because I didn't see the post in question, but I know that I wouldn't want to see her leave over this, because I feel sure she has a great deal to offer - and to gain - in sticking with us.

And I really feel for you, too, because I know very well how much of yourself you give to others. You're always one of the first to offer advice, encouragement, help and support when someone is in need, and it makes me sad to see you upset.

I really hope @Butterfly1960 will reconsider her decision to leave. I've enjoyed her posts and interacting with her on the forum.

As you say, it's tough when a well-meaning comment is edited or deleted, but many of us (oops) have been in the same position. If moderation is done sensitively and diplomatically, the needs of the forum and all it's members can be met. None of us set out to be the bad guys!

patronising people an those who lie.
So apart from shoulder pain everything was going fine then at half eight , Ron started to get really sharp chest pains . Spray was little help. He said his heart felt like it was racing so did his BP , it was normal. Two hours later he's gone to bed . Hope this weekend doesn't turn into a nightmare.

My bp machine shows heart rate too. Yours? Was his heart rate more or less than 100?

Your pain may just be your body's way of saying ease up on things. Sounds like you're pretty busy yourself AND doing your mothers cleaning a couple of times a weekly
Take care of yourself Patsy....
