    A heartfelt Thank You to Greeneyes.

    Friends,

    If you ever doubt the caring and love here at MWO by our members, let me tell you a story.

    I relapsed in a huge way Monday night/Tuesday morning. I was on the phone with Greenie when I did.

    Not only did she talk to me but when I faded away and she heard the simple word, "help," she did just that.

    She called the police in two states (Because where I am, there are two well known cities in two different states), she finessed and figured out who my manager was and she worked tirelessly to insure I was okay.

    I simply cannot give Greenie enough thank yous for this. She did what she felt she must do to insure I was not harming myself.

    I talked to her today and I hope I did not diminish what she did.

    I had someone "sitting beside me" through a horrific time. Greenie not only sat next to me but insured that I did not harm myself in a dark period.

    I do have the usual guilt of "why did I do that??" and I am so sorry I put her through that. And when I say I put her through that, I mean this woman had police in two states looking for me and she figured out who my manager was and called them.

    This is more effort than anyone in my family would have put forth. Not because they don't love me but because they would have no idea how to go about it.

    Greenie did.

    I simply want to say "Thank you" to a true friend. Someone who cares. I sure hope I can be as resourceful as Greenie if the same situation arose.

    Much love to a true friend,
    Cindi

          Cindi, I am sorry to hear about your difficulties earlier this week. This disease / affliction / addiction / whatever-one-wants-to-call-it is so insidious. I'm so glad that you made it through and so glad that Greenie was there to help you in your time of need. MWO truly is an awesome community!

            :upset: All of it rolled into one. Cindi knows I love her dearly. I feel honored to be the one to be on the other end of the line at that time. To be able to help. To understand like we at MWO only know how to understand. And to do whatever it takes. Anyone who reads this......please understand that you need to put out your hand for someone to take it and hold it. And we will. God bless.

                It doesn't surprise me that Greeneyes has dropped everything that may have been happening in her own life, rolled her sleeves up, and got in there to help. You are very lucky Cindi. I hope you are back on track now, as you are such an awesome woman. As is Greenie, which goes without saying.

                    Wow. The longer I come to "know" Greeneyes, the more I can see she is a special person.
                    Cindi, I'm so sorry this damn beast got you again. Stick with us though, ok? :h:l

                              Cinders, have been worried about you since you posted about the troubling issue a couple weeks ago --- the "who said, they said" issue. (um, not clear if it was work or personal ... kind of assumed work) And maybe that's been resolved. Dunno. Just know that type of thing is a real tough one ... really tough.

                              Greenie, sounds you are a true friend of Cindi's, and quite resourceful! homage, as Cindi suggests.
