Just a little while ago she opened her eyes!
They threw us out of the room but she is AWAKE!!!!

Thank you GOD!


Crying my eyes out. Be back later when I can speak coherently!

I was going to come in here and tell you all about Christabel's coming back around again. Instead, I am sitting here in shock and dismay. Not at anything that has happened to her, but for something that has happened here.

I will not scream. I will not shout. I will quietly weep for the mean and small spirited people of the world and go on.

My friend, and I daresay I am her best friend, is awake. Weak, confused, but awake. For that I will take comfort knowing that good medicine, prayers and well wishes and her own determined spirit has brought her back to us.

I am happy that she is back. I am elated for those who love her as I do so they can all breathe a little easier. However, I hope she realizes when she is capable of coming back here who her friends really are.

Sincerely yours,
Odessa Dambee

She knows Odessa, she knows.

 

[SweetWitch]

This is a happy day. May she find peace and comfort in you, Odessa.

 

[Selena_Kitt]

So so so glad she's awake... keep on keepin' on, Christabel, we're pulling for you!

I assume this revelation is in light of my thread.

I too hope she realises who her friends are, but I doubt it will be easy.

What I've found most interesting is comparing the names on the 40+ pms I've had with those who have posted here. And not one of them has disabused me of my suspicions.

At least those on my thread are up front about it.

 

[MagicaPractica]

Blessed be.

It's the nature of the internet-- there are always pro-and-con-ers, and they will speak up loud and clear, and often.

You can ignore the chatter, continue with this thread. Or, you can let some folks' discussion turn you away. The internet is not going to censor you, or them.

 

[AllardChardon]

All that matters is that Christabel is awake, amongst the living and willing to give life another round. One baby step at a time...

 

[English Lady]

Odessa, I continue to send my prayers, I hope she continues to get better and better now.

It's the nature of the internet-- there are always pro-and-con-ers, and they will speak up loud and clear, and often.

You can ignore the chatter, continue with this thread. Or, you can let some folks' discussion turn you away. The internet is not going to censor you, or them.

And the nature of it to witness petty behaviors at their worst.

"Some thing is off here." "Oh its always a red flag when they bring up money" or "Who talks about so many intimate things in a room full of strangers."

What is off or wrong is how much Christabel has undergone in a relatively short amount of time. Yes, it bogles the mind at how quickly things can go from good to so so to downright awful. I have watched this girl over more than 20 years and witnessed her health go from good to life threatening in a matter of hours, sometimes minutes, repeatedly. I have seen her fight desperately for life on more than one occassion. I haven't always been beside her but I have been her friend far longer than any of you.

I know now, why she would loose her mind over the ignorant cruelty that can be spawned here. Maybe I should have posted pictures of her in her hospital bed. Would that have satisfied you doubting thomas's? Should I scan the ambulance bill that just came in? Would her lab work be sufficient? She almost died. What don't you get about that?

I came here because she asked me to. I stayed here and talked of her because I wanted to. To share something of her. To give myself hope if nothing else. I got that hope. The response was so overwhelming I'd thought in relaying to her what was written here that she's some how hear them, making it harder for her to leave us. After reading through hundreds of her posts, her emails, her files, I felt it appropriate and benign to address you directly. That makes this "unreal"?

I am just that sorry, because Christabel and I are so close, that others would seek to destroy the beautiful energy that was raised on her behalf. For those who do care I tender my thanks and humble gratitude. When she is able, and I wish I could tell you when, I know she will thank you too.

For those who prefer to be hateful, even if its inappropriate for this particular thread, snod off.


Sincerely yours,
Odessa Dambee

I have no idea what's going on except that Christa is awake...we have dial up here and I don't look at a whole lot of threads because it takes too long and then things freeze up...all I know is that I'm so glad she's awake. Wish I could kiss her cheek.

Odessa, please continue what you are doing and send her our best wishes. We want her healthy and back with us, we miss her. There will be always someone who you could bring into her room and who still wouldn't believe. Let them. Send Christabel our best wishes.

* Hugs *

 

[AllardChardon]

Odessa,

I do not know what has happened to upset you so and I am sorry for that. A health crisis can bring out the best and the worst in people. Try not to let it get you down.

All my prayers, all the time,
Allard

I pray constantly for Christa and all the firemen in California.

 

[LadyCibelle]

Odessa,

There will always exist 'crappers' who will want to destroy joy and happiness, and who are jealous when someone other than themselves receive the attention they so greatly crave.

Christa has been nothing but completely honest and friendly with everyone she encountered. Oh, sure, she has her temper and our very first exchange was due to her temper, but, it doesn't change the fact that as big a temper she has, she also have a big, generous heart; she wouldn't hurt a fly and she's shown it countless times.

i haven't been on the net much in the past few days, but I have a small idea of what you're talking about. Let the mean comments glide on your back; they're not worthy of your attention. Just keep in mind that there are people who are rooting for Christa and who appreciate every little bit of information you can give us.

Here's a generous helpings of (((((((((((((Christa))))))))))))) (((((((((((Odessa))))))))))) for you both.

Take care and when you have other news, please let us, the ones who care about Christa, know.

 

[OdessaDambee]

Thank you Allard, Lady Cybell, John the Author, Tarakin, Trinique Fire, TE999, English Lady, Oggbashan, Impressive, Belegon, Sweetwitch and the rest who have expressed their continuing concern. Please feel free to email me at odessadambee@yahoo.com. I would be happy to share whats going on with her.

To the others,

I have been posting of her condition and sharing memories of her over the years. Suddenly, because I dared to express concern over her financial situation, shared some of her art, and was intimate about it, you are considering her a scammer and a liar, me included in the equation.

I am horrified over this. I don't know what to do about it as she loves this site, for all of its contentiousness, as a way to feel connected with other authors and maybe make friends. I never imagined that my posting about her would cause such vile opinions to be expressed. Christabel has her quirks for certain but being a liar or a scammer is not one of them. She would rather remain silent than lie and in my opinion gives most people more credit than they deserve.

I know some of you have her phone numbers. Why don’t you try calling her? Cell phones aren't allowed in hospitals, but I am sure her fiance will be able to fill you in. For that matter, why don’t you try writing to me? I'm willing to verify my veracity.

Sincerely,
Odessa Dambee

Erm, not all others.

Some have made up their mind that they shouldn't believe you. Other, namely me, say that sure, anything is possible, but I find no reason to distrust you from the content of your posts. And I don't let others make up my mind.

If they're wrong, it's their loss. But if I for some odd reason am being duped... big deal. I'm a big boy, I'll manage.

Either way, don't let other people's opinions get you down. You know the truth, do what you feel is right.

Well said, Liar. I agree with what you've said. Either way, it's not like she's asking for money to help out. She's simply asking for thoughts, support and prayers from people for another human being. I know that even I can afford that, it costs no more than the monthly price I pay for my internet service.

 

[Mitsouko]

Odessa please keep reporting on Christabel. There are many lurkers who are reading and hoping for her recovery.
Just put anyone who is upsetting you on ignore, that is what we do.
Don't take the trolls to heart. This is a BIG place, bound to be some trolls and nasties.

Great news by the way.
