Subject: Temporarily Absent Friends

Posted by: UmberWunFayun
Date: Aug 15 18

With such a well known and loved FT member MIA for such a long time, I thought I'd better update everyone who is missing Elle, aka Blackdresss, on the situation, and at the same time provide a place where players can let everyone know if someone is going to be absent for a while to save any unnecessary worry. This is a close community, and we all notice if our friends disappear. So, from vacations to technological difficulties, please feel free to use this space to keep the community informed about temporarily absent friends (with their permission), or your own sojourns away from the screen should you wish to do so.

Thanks, Jo, looks like I missed the deadline, but please include me if you send another:

Hey Elle, Sorry you have such a terribile condition, and I wish for you a full recovery soon, it's just not as much fun around here without you. I hope the kitties are doing fine, and that you do not have to worry about them. I hope to see you back, soon, Love, Stephanie

Yeah, thanks, Jo

I'm sure those kitties miss you terribly, Elle. Hopefully, you can return to caring for them soon.

Sending more healing energy, love and light your way.

I'm glad you can take some solace in our comforting thoughts and words.

Keep fighting.

We all believe in you.

Miss you and think of you often.

Jaz

Another member down. David is in hospital. He may get to go home Monday but we have been told most probably only up to 3 months to live. Heart trouble. I read the tales he posted and yes they are true. I know for sure because I am Michelle his oldest daughter and yes I got his gift or has he calls it a curse. I've seen my mom after she died and even saw his aunt Kathy. He said he'll tell his last story on the other link but I may have to type it. Will keep anyone posted if they wish to here. Knowing my dad and what we both go through I wouldn't be surprised if he tells me that last story after he's gone. :)
Thanks, Michelle

Hi Michelle - We know most posters by their screen name, would you mind telling us David's screen name?

Best wishes to you and your dad.

Stephanie

Stephanie, 'yesimtbird' is David's screen name. Michelle just came in under his screen name.

He's been posting some of his experiences on the Supernatural thread...

Michelle, I'm sorry to hear of your dad's illness, and wish him an easy transition.

Hey, everyone, I've finally had word back from Elle, she hasn't had access to her computer while she's been sick, and it was only today that she got back online and read the e-cards we sent for her. This is what she replied, for me to pass on :

"Please thank everyone for me. I am truly touched, and stunned, and at a loss for words, so you know how much I mean it. I'm never at a loss for words.
Thank you, everyone, so, so much.
Love and hugs,
Elle"

She's got some more tests this week and a couple of doctors appointments, but with a bit of luck should be able to be back here by next weekend. Thanks again, everyone, you're the best! :-)

Very sad. Never knew David but read his story on the link that postcards2go posted. I lost my best friend and husband on Guy Fawkes day in 2017. He was sick for years and had also near death experiences. All of them were according to him wonderful and the only thing that worried him was leaving me alone. Thank goodness for FT. Have made many friends who are supportive, kind and loving. Thank you all.

Umm, just figured I should let you know. My dad/David/yesimtbird is coming home tomorrow!!! He did have heart surgery and has been out of hospital for awhile but staying at my aunts/his sisters. I've been keeping up on some of his daily games for him like the Global Challenge thing. As of tomorrow he will be back here. I'm gonna get my own name cause I got addicted to this by playing his stuff. He has talked about friends on here especially Elle and Jo. Wondered how Elle is doing and why he hasn't heard anything from Jo. Has said to say thank you for the good wishes from those of you who offered. There will be more stories when he gets back as more occurrences have happened since he went into hospital and I saw a couple. Yes, I have my dad's gift/curse. But I will let dad tell you about all that so I turn this back over to him. On the lighter side, anybody have a good idea for a name for me? The spirit seeing daughter of a spirit seer?? :) Will let you know my name when I chose it. Til then take care and thank you all. I know Dad appreciates it.
Love Michelle
PS also posting this in the supernatural thing.
