Hello All
This is not really a discussion topic, but I have been absent from the board for a couple of weeks, and have now picked up the thread about the possible closure/relocation of the discussion foruim, and I wanted to say this:
I am immensely relieved that the forum will not close. I have personally found unrivalled support here over the past couple of years, and I would like to hope that i have been able to offer support to others too. The work that Diana and Phil both put in is tremendous, and I want to let you both know it is very much appreciated.
As some of you who are regular posters here know, my husband was accused of rape, and then tried and convicted for an indecent assault he did not commit. We have endured an incredibly stressful, difficult time, and Broadcaster has helped me stay sane during the horror of what we have endured. As a unit we have emerged stronger and more devoted than I would ever have thought possible.
Being able to post on here and offer support, even just an ear to listen has helped me beyond belief. However, I am facing a fairly prolonged absence over the next few weeks, and weanted to let you all know the reason why.
It is NOT because I feel I want to move and not be "dragged down", nor is it because I feel the site can't offer me the support I need. It is simply that we are expecting our second child any day now.... [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img] and i don't think I will have the time to do the washing up, let alone sit at my computer!
Given some of the comments in the earlier thread (which is now closed) I didn't want anyone to think I had simply abandoned the site...i will continue to drop in whenever I can, and members are free to send me messages which I will do my best to respond to.
As I said before, my heartfelt thanks to the many many people who make this site what it is: Phil, Diana, Val, Maria, Ashley, Geraldine, Ali, SadPerson, Rights Fighter, Snoopy, all of you.
Please wish me luck for the birth of our baby daughter!
