    An apology and thanks to my good friends here .

    I recently went through a really rough time, My daughter has had brain surgery, my dad has had heart surgery, and still I beat the booze ........

    Recently I lashed out at a member here that I think very highly of, I'm not proud of it, but at the time I was feeling so low that I felt that it was justified ..

    I woke the following morning to several pm's some hate mail, some supportive ......the hate mail was from new people here that dont even know me, the support was from people that have known me for a year or more saying that they know that my post was out of character and was I OK????? For those people I am gratefull .....

    I've made more than 5000 posts here, and that is the only time that I was negative ....... so please newbies, give me another chance .....

    I would just like to thank the people that know me, and supported me, and Starlight I am sorry, you didn;t deserve what I said .......

    Love & Hugs, BB xx

    (((Betty))))

    That had to be a very hard thing to do. I don't think there is one member here who has not done something they regret (and some like me many somethings). We at MWO are forgiving, so I say in my best Italian voice "Forget about it". :l

      Betty, it wasn't like you at all, completely out of character and those who know you know that, if you know what I mean!! Both you and Starlight have been towers of strength to newbies and oldies alike. Starlight is a strong and sensible lady, she will have made up her own mind on how to deal with the matter. Take care, and that goes to both of you. Well done for posting this, it can't have been easy, but as always you have done the right thing, bless you sweetheart.

        Hey Betty,I believe I was one of those "newbies" that left a reply something to the effect of ...'be the better person" I really wasn't even aware of what had taken place...but it seemed as though someone was being attacked and I didn't want that for anyone. Now I wish I would have kept my mouth shut since I din't know the whole story :upset: I am happy that you and your family are well . I also hope that you and Starlight have come to some kind of an understanding. :l

          Ooooh, drama? I missed it completely! What'd you say, Boops? Oh, well, don't re-open old wounds, I'll go hunt in archives. But look, we all have grouchy days. If I'm feeling "sore-headed" as our old cook Esterine used to say when we kids were fighting, I generally just stay away from the posts. When I'm grumpy, it's not pretty...

            Chok, I really wish that you had the time to trawl through my last 5000 posts, and trust me that is a lot! The only negative ones are the ones that you read ....... for that I am sorry .......

              Betty,
              There are times in our lives when we say things we regret for many reasons.I know I have. And I am not talking about times when alcohol was doing the talking. We are human. We react. :h rudemama

                  Boops,

                  I dont know what was said as iv not been here that much...but i do know that if you said anything bad that it would have been totaly out of charector for you and that you would not have meant to hurt anyone.
                  You are a wonderfull person who has been nothing but supportive and loving to me..even when iv dissapeared and may have worried the crap out of you...your always there for me when i come back...i hope your ok hun.

                  Love you

                  Lou-Lou x x x

                    BB, admittedly your earlier post shook me to the core, but it`s all over now.......forgiven and forgotten........I accept your apology and appreciate the integrity of it.........thank you. We have all said things in the heat of the moment, myself included, only to come to bitterly regret them.

                    I am what I am, and..........I can indeed be a very emotional person, depending upon my circumstances at any given time. I am unashamedly very much an "open book" and have often posted frankly and honestly about many areas of my life, mainly because I have come to regard so many of you as my true friends. M.W.O. is no longer simply about my recovery from alcohol addiction..........this is a place where I come to share the joys and sorrows of my life.........I feel safe, warm and loved here...........and I hope others feel that I reciprocate much of which I receive.

                    May we never lose sight of the reason our paths initially crossed and acknowledge that "united we stand, divided we fall".

                    My love to you all,

                    Starlight Impress x
