I have to go.

It isn't anything personal to anyone. I am just too involved. My friends say to just blow past shit. Well, that is hard to do when you care as much as I do. The ones who know what I am about to tell you all, know why it is so hard for me to just blow past anything.


I love you all so much...

Yet you all seem to find it so easy to hate/ be indifferent/ or put each other on ignore. Your choice yes, and in extreams, I understand, but otherwise it is just another way of perpetuating pain. Someone who fucked up, will feel shut out and in their own life perpetuate the pain to others.

The level of open forgiveness on the board is slim. I am glad that in my personal experiance it's been about half and half. Well, there is a line, yes, I guess, and I crossed it tonight. I don't expect to be forgiven, but I do love you.

I am turning into what I hate out of the most primal fear.

Weird, huh, but amidst a great heap of fault and opinions and words, rants, rambling, and so forth, I have never seen any one of you as less than a human.... I have never looked at you as a screen name, never just a series of posts, a blankness. Though I have managed to drive a wedge between me and two people I had begun to love. Amidst the heart of all that has been said and done, I must go. If not to prevent further hurting of the rest of you.

I have been here under a false premise. One of hope and joy and fun and whatnot. It has been that for all of us at some point, yet in my life there is one difference. One accosting threat that has had me torn up beyond any petty bullshit or even meaningful loving words if seen here on the lit BB.

My life is being threatend by a health problem. I am very sick and getting sicker. I don't know, but it doesn't look good. I have hid it, denyed it, made excuses for it, and gotten by with it. Now that the situation is effecting my emotional stability at a very unstable place, I have to make a choice. That choice is to tell you all the truth and to say goodbye, and give you my love.

I love you. yes. I love those folks that just got here that I won't get to meet. Those of you who've backed me or supported me, liked, me, hated me, and those been ready to guide me.......
You all have been a means for a stupid girl like me to stay in touch with the ways of people, being that I am not allowed around them much, but for my family, and the occaional outting.
Some of you may think it is gay for an adult to get all excited about going to the Zoo. If you only knew how little I get to do, and how hard it is for me to do what I want to do, you'd take it a little bit more seriously.

I am kind of jealous of some of you. Some of you who can go Mountain climbing, or maybe rafting, or ride roller coasters with your friends or whatnot, but regardless, my situation is no ones fault so I love you all. That is all I can do.





I am letting my friends down.

I know this.

I am feeling that pain more than anything.

That is why I tried to get out before I even really knew I had any, and the one's I thought were my friends aren't and the one I thought weren't are??????? And before I hurt anymore feelings with my own emotional baggage.

Fucking shit man.

I never posted about this shit because it is what I consider private, but every so ofteh it would get adressed by one of you in a way that was not cold, but indifferent to the idea that there could be something really wrong. I am not allergic to meat, for chrissake. I am not able to digest it. I can't eat food coloring, because I found out after 26 years of poisoning myself was why I've almost died four times, and why it is happening again. The last poisoning was in January, when I died my hair with shit that had Red #40 up the wazooo. Well, I am not recovering, and I am getting weaker by picking up colds. I am more scared right now than anything. I am scared in general, and I am afraid to say that I am able to handle more stress. This is why I must go.

Some of you may look at me as weak for this. Well, good. I am. I will post a pic of me that Never pointed out how I looked under the weather. It was taken last night.


To my friends, please understand and try not to look at this as me abandoning you. You are my friends. I don't think that should end with my having to get away from an overly emotional situation. Please. You know I am honest, I haven't lied and I love you. You know my email addy. The shit works both ways. So there is no problem.


Dillinger, I am sorry I didn't wait. I couldn't. I have to do this.


PC, I love you, and I am sorry I've let you down. That is what I meant. I will come out to visit you, when my health returns. I promise.

Laurel, I don't know how to thank you. You have really kept me going lady. I am, of all people, feeling I am abandoning you the most. I am sorry. Your site is wonderful. I have loved coming her for the past year, and I am glad to say that I think I officially made it to a year here. I really am embarrassed about my past behavior and emotional outbursts. I want your site to be a happy and sane place and I want the best for You and Manu. I love you both, and hope you can see that I appreciate everything you've done here for everyone and myself, more than you'll ever know.



I love you all and I am sorry I can't adress each one of you with my feelings, as I am too tired to continue.


regretfully,
Starfish, Gretchen
 
Lavender, that is so sweet. I am going to be thinking of you all fondly, while I try to heal the damage done to my body. Once I get better, I will be right back here with my lit family...

Just look at me as your sick relative that had to go to tharapy or some shit, and you can only get a visit now and again, until they are better.

Love you all.... and

Kgboot, you will have mail tomarrow. :)


Night all, and good bye for now. Like I said, I really love you all.
 
Do what you need to, Gretchen. You're always more then welcomed back here whenever you feel it would be good to return. Thank you for being there to talk with me in the last few days. It really meant a lot.

Going to miss your presence around here too. Keep in touch with me if you can in the future. You've got my email address and the PM system is always there also.

Take Care. *Hugs*
 
Starfish/Gretchen,

Have the doctors told you your life is at risk? If you're that sick, you need to be finding a doctor that can help you and working on getting well. Good luck, Gretchen. Come back when you are well.
 
<sniffle>

Sorry to hear all this. You were one of the first people to talk to me on this board! Get better :(
 
I wish you luck in all that you do, and I will miss you.

Good Luck :)
 
Uh Yup

Please. If you were that sick and that new to this board then you wouldn't be posting it.

And saying "I love you all" is just dumb.

I bet she'll be back in a day.
 
Shut the fuck up asswipe.

Saying 'I love you' isn't dumb to the ones she's saying it to. They know who they are and You, you ignorant 'unregistered' pussy, obviously aren't one oftem. Jealous?

Just shows how much you know. If anyone's dumb, it's You.

Luv ya Getchie, I'm praying for you.

Licky
 
starfish.....good luck, get strong, and come back with a vengence......hugs april
 
You've got mail... unfortunately its about 12 hours too late... Sorry I didn't see it sooner.

Still - I hope it helps and... I will miss your presence on this board. And I do hope you return...

I've been told in a PM that I've questioned Starfish's sincerity with my original post above. I didn't question if she believes she is dying, as it is obvious that she does. I asked if she has gone to a doctor since it doesn't mention a doctor anywhere in her post. If she is that sick and it has been dragging on this long, she really DOES need to find a doctor to help her get well!

I've posted it before and I'll post it again. I DO believe in miracles. I've seen someone close to me diagnosed with terminal cancer live another 20 years instead of the 6 months she was told she had. There ARE miracles. But I also believe God doesn't send a miracle to you if you don't fight to help yourself. And doctors are important in that fight.

As I said the first time, good luck, Gretchen. Come back when you are well.
 
Starfish, come out and play with me,
We'll be a jolly three,
climb up my appletree.
Hey Starfish, slide down my cellar door,
and we'll be jolly three, forever more.
 
Starfish, GR....sorry to see ya go...hope you are better soon

:p
 
Damn Starfishy, my greatful dead, bonzai loving friend

If you happen to see this, check your mail in the A.M.

You know I love you though, and I suck at shit like this, so I'll just put what I have to say in the Email. :(
