Welcome and Thank You
« on: March 14, 2012, 07:25:14 am »
We welcome Jay (Username:  jaylogs) as our new Forum Moderator.  Jay is from Phoenix and has been active on the forum for some time.  We look forward to his assistance with forum moderation. 

We say thank you to Steve (Username:  sgerrard) for your years of service to the forum.  Your participation on the forum has been most supportive and informative.  We will miss your moderation, but know you will still be "lurking" on the forum.

Jay .....

So excited that you are a new moderator here on the Forum.  You have a kind, gentle spirit about you in your comments and I know you will do well in this role.


Steve .....

We will miss you in your role as moderator, but grateful that you gave so willingly for many years.  You helped me tremendously during the early months of my AN journey, with your subtle humor and just the right amount of helpful information.

I welcomed Jay privately but allow me to do so publicly... 

Welcome, Jay!

If you have any moderator-related questions, ask Phyl.  Just kidding!  Joe and I are always at your service.....but Phyl just knows more.  :D

4.5 cm AN diagnosed 5/06.  Retrosigmoid surgery 6/06.  Follow-up FSR completed 10/06.  Tumor shrinkage & necrosis noted on last MRI.  Life is good. 

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

Thanks Jim, I already have the Bat-Phone hotwired to Phyl's inbox! :)  Claurice...thanks for the kind words... I can only hope I can do half as well as Steve did during his mod tenure here!  And Judy, thank you...I am honored to be a small part of this wonderful world of ANA!

Jay -

congratulations!  I'm so thrilled that you are the new moderator, although I'll miss Steve greatly  :(

It's kind of a thankless job and one I'm sure that I couldn't do - not that I was asked or anything  ;D

Good luck,

Jan
Retrosig 5/31/07 Drs. Battista & Kazan (Hinsdale, Illinois)
Left AN 3.0 cm (1.5 cm @ diagnosis 6 wks prior) SSD. BAHA implant 3/4/08 (Dr. Battista) Divino 6/4/08  BP100 4/2010 BAHA 5 8/2015

I don't actually "make" trouble..just kind of attract it, fine tune it, and apply it in new and exciting ways
