Phyl,

Thanks for all that you have done with your 6000 posts.  I have only been here for a few weeks, but I can tell you that your positive energy and supportive comments have helped me.   What you do is a labor of love.

sheesh folks...wasn't looking for kudos or such (but, I thank you...).... figured you all would be chiming in with "geesh, Phyl, 6k posts... must have a lot on your mind you want to say, eh?" or "geesh Phyl, nothing better to do with your time, eh?" or "blimey, Phyl, after 6k posts, don't you have a life or sumptin'?"

thought you all would have fun with this..... but thank you for the nice words.  


Now, back to your regularly scheduled whateveritis we do around here! ;)

Congratulations, girly..  I don't come around here near as often as I used to but your bright shiny face is one of a few that truly brighten up my day when I see it.  This place just wouldn't be the same without your hard work and dedication (along with a few others).. 

I'm sure many will say the same thing, but I remember talking to you and others when I first "logged on".  You've been there to help through bad times and helping me to celebrate milestones.  For that (among some other things), I will ever be thankful.

Regards,
Brian

Hey, Phyl,

When you get frustrated moderating, just remember how WONDERFUL this board is.  It helps all of us along the way, but to me its overwhelmingly critical importance is to newbies, during those days when one is in shock.  I'm putting a note in my membership renewal (...sitting in front of me here at my computer, unsent...ugh!) to Judy and the Board of Directors that I think a push should be made to get ANA brochures or flyer into the offices of doctors where new AN patients are likely to be.  To me this is just he most critical aspect of ANA and this online board in particular.

So...THANK YOU... and Steve et al ... for being the hall monitors.  I'm sure it's not always fun, but never forget its WORTH!!

Love,
Dana

1.5 cm AN diagnosed June 2007.   GammaKnife July 19, 2007 at Univ. of Washington/Harborview GK Center, Drs. Rockhill, Rostomily. 
After yearly MRIs for 5 years, it hadn't died. So I'm now leaning strongly toward surgery.

Hey Phy,

That's great! Keep up the good work. You are an inspiration to us all. I have learned so much since the day I met you and other fellow "an'er's" in NH at Donna's meeting and then again at the Worcester brunch. The information that I received has helped me make many decisions along my ana journey thus far. This forum is invaluable to so many people. Let's keep on posting and supporting each other along the way.
