A Sad Farewell, Dear Spark Friends

Thursday, May 01, 2008

I have to tell you that I am dropping Spark People and will no longer be posting on my boards. It is breaking my heart, but I have no choice.

As some of you know, I have macular degeneration and it is progressing. My docor told me today to cut back on computer time. I've gone back to work part time and that is about all the time I can spend on a computer.

I'll miss you all but as I'm sure you are aware - I'd miss my eyes more if I mess them up worse than they already are!

HUGS TO ALL!

    Sorry to hear you have to leave SP. God Bless and prayers for your eye health.

    We all have decisions to make, and I am sad that it was necessary for you to make this one.

    Wishing and praying for you to find a way to keep going on your journey. I am sure there are other support systems for you that do not require you to damage your fragile eyes.

    Best to you my dear.

    Dearest Donna,
    I have come back to Sparkpeople today with so much to tell you only to discover you're no longer here. I'm so sorry to hear about your illness and I completely understand your absence. You are missed and SP won't be the same without you.

    So sorry to hear that you have macular degeneration.
    But your eye are so much more important. Wish you the best.
    I will miss you and your sense of humor so very much.

    Dear Friend -

    This decision has brought great sadness, but I know this is something you must do for yourself.

    Please take care of yourself, that lovely DH of yours and try not to work too hard.......at the job, or on your renovation at home.

    Enjoy the spring and think of us often, as we will have you in our hearts.

    Donna - I feel so sad about this, but of course, you must take your doctor's advice. I will miss you such a lot on the boards - you always manage to make me laugh! Sparks won't be the same without you - you are my 'oldest' (in Spark terms!) friend on SP! Look after yourself - take care my friend! Carole emoticon emoticon emoticon
