If something happens to you...

Your point is well taken. I am in personal contact with a few people of Lit, and we know how to contact each other, if there are any questions. I don't think many of us realize how many lives we impact, ie "It's A Wonderful Life". This Board is like one big happy (slightly dysfunctional) family and people really do care and worry. It is a wondrous thing.
 
I must say thats something I've never really thought about.
I have had online contacts disappear on me for awhile, and have been worried. The few online contacts that I am really close to have my real name and know where I'm located..as do I them. But it would be a lot of work to actually track me/them down. I think I am going to talk to a close friend and tell them if something were to happen to me that they should email the people in my address book telling them what was going on.

This has certainly got me thinking, about what else I can do.

Mr. N. knows how to get in touch with friends of mine who post here at Lit. (Wysteria, ravenna, I'm looking at you). I'd like to think if something dire happened, one of them would mention it. Let's hope we never have to test that theory.
 
There are a few here who are in personal contact with me often, but only one has access to everything from contact list to passwords and such. She has that due to my epilepsy but she will also pass along information if something occurs and I am away for an extended period of time. Desdemona or Kiwiwolf know of my whereabouts most of the time.

I keep thinking I should have a note put aside for my family, but it's not like they wouldn't just toss it. They haven't given a crap about my wishes while I'm alive and functional, I doubt my death or veggie-hood would make them want to honor anything.

I do have many people I want to at least know what the hell happened to me though.
 
Many people have my phone number

:p
 
I don't have anyone on hear that I talk to on a personal level, that I could let them know.

I think my bf might come on here and say a little something, cause' he knows how much I visit Lit.
 
nope, i wouldn't really be missed, i would but not, argh hard to get the right words. Needless to say I would fade away into obscurity like a summer heat rash that drive y'all nuts for a week and then when it is gone, you no longer even remeber you had it.
 
One poster has absolutely enough information to check on me with a single phone call.

Several have enough info to find my local papers.


When I become close to someone on line or long distance, I have, in the past, asked that they put my name and number in their wallet or desk.

Those were special situations.

Who do you tell your online contacts to so that nobody has to wonder in fear?

This is a question that I asked many months ago and I think in light of Mensa...we should all re-examine it.

You my dear. *chuckle* Well up to a week ago I'd have relied on you. I think that now someone else might beat you to it.
 
RisiaSkye and KillerMuffin know how to get in touch with me here, at my house. They know the phone number to my former husband's house, if i don't answer here for too long. I think i'll give them my mother's info, too.

Others have my phone number(s) but those two know me into my reality.
 
I've got one person on this board that knows all my info, from hometown to last name to stuff like that. She rarley comes on anymore, but she is a great friend, and if anything were to happen, i know she'd say something.

I've grown close to another, who knows who she is, and hopefully soon she'll find out my contact info as well. But i pray it never has to be used.
 
Mr. Freaky would know to come to Lit.. he knows how to get here and he knows my password.

He knows Juspars and Lickerishs phone numbers so he could contact them..

he also knows my passwords to all my email accounts so he could email people that I have contact with (other than Lit).
 
My best friend that lives in the area with me knows one of of my closest friends here, so god forbid, if anything should happen, I'm sure the word would be spread.
 
when I was in my accenednt
I disapeared and noone know why for months

since then I try to collect anyone I start to think of as a friend
i get there e-mail msn icq or aim

and my friend knows should anything ever happen to me. send an e-mail to each and everyone of those people let them know what happened

and i'm sure those people would let lit or any ohter board or chat I'm in know what happened
 
Emi lives rather close to me, and has my phone numbers.

KinkyKat has all of my phone numbers, my mother's phone numbers and my best friends phone number. As she has his, so if anything were to happen to me they would have some sort of exchange.

We also have a rule that we must let the other know what's going on, and if more than three days should pass without contact (whether phone or email), phone calls will be made.

They would let all of my other online friends know .....

I thought about this because no one close to me knows that I come here. I thought about leaving a letter somewhere for someone to find...giving them instructions...then I thought...would anyone really care. I don't say this in self pity...I'm just uncertain as to the impact I have on some of the people of Lit.

But after giving it more thought...there are a few that I believe would be interested in knowing...I just have to find a way of letting them know...should I be run over by a truck or something...
 
In light of you asking this before BC, I made sure that someone had enough information in the event something were to happen to me.
While several here have my number. Both Rhys and Juicylips have my number, address, and contact #'s of my Best Friend here where I live. They will always know how to find out if something may be wrong or not.
Exchanging this kind of information with JL several months ago, came in handy when JL got very ill and ended up in the hospital. Her daughter knew how to contact me to let me know what was going on and keep me updated on her mother's condition.
