VSM/UKM is getting naked...

UKM - well you probably do now (esp after my now deleted cock-up last night).

VSM - Well I guess I'm not anymore. Well not as much anyway.

I'm sick of 'pretending' I'm fine and avoiding conversations in case I gave myself away.

Okay so I still need to tell my parents in fact lots of people really.

As Aloha said to me earlier "After all, if you can't be honest 'anonymously' where can you
be?"

Just need to get my hat off now... (Eeeeeeeeek!)

You are being incredibly brave and I'm full of admiration. Well done you, take care,

I saw the thread this morning and didn't know what to say so I didn't say anything in the end since I didn't know how you wanted to deal with it. Well done - we all think you're brilliant and brave you know. I really have been thinking about you today and especially about how pleased your son is that you're protecting him. You don't have anything to be ashamed of, not at all, we're all right behind you. I think you've got my email address from ages and ages ago - please do let me know if I can do anything.

Hi sb bloody well done. As I said on another thread, you are an amazing woman and mother. PS I changed my name too but for far more trivial reasons.

GlitterGirly · 22/01/2004 22:08

let's ride on the crest of Twinkie's wave and hope that you have the positive outcome you are hoping for .... hopefully sooner rather than later.
HUGS to you and your darling children xxx

Welcome back sb34, you have been vsm for such a long time that I now find it difficult to associate you with another name.

Hey, yay you!

I missed this last night. Hope it's easier to put everything together here. (Did that make sense?) I mean, it'll be easier now to post about things. Or something like that!

emmatmg · 23/01/2004 08:11

Well Done SB. I mayb a bit dim but even though I read most of you posts I didn't work out that VSM and UKM were one and the same.

Welcome Back.
