    The member list

    I cant help wondering why we only see posts from very few. Should we be encouraging involvement, do we even know if they ever log in? Why join, then do nothing? Am I just too nosy for my own good? Probably

    Hi Evelyn,

    I guess the forum is like life in that some people are more sociable than others. Of course we mustn’t forget that the ability to type is useful as well as the familiarity with technology. Many people look in for information and some only visit the site occasionally. Personally this forum gives me a connection to others going through common experiences be they pwmnd or carers and family members.
    I’m going to do this even if it kills me!

        love and hugs Denise xxx

              Hi EvelynMW ,

              The forum is a public space and is set up to allow anyone to view posts without needing a user account. We know that a lot of users use the Forum as a source for information and don't wish to post.

              As other members have said, everyone is different and the forum is here for everyone living with and affected by MND. This is reflected in our Forum Guidelines and Terms and Conditions.

              Many thanks,

              Forum Admin.
              Our working hours are Monday to Friday 8:30am until 5pm

                Hi Pat. I didn’t see your 9.15 post to say β€˜good morning’ etc until just now, I’ve been distracted today with the lovely sun outside our windows and me getting reading for my MND Clinic appt in Salford this afternoon, I get up between 5.45 and 7.15 (pain dependant). I’ll check in tomorrow morning. I’m usually in the shower from 8,30’ish so if after showering and dressing it’d be 10.30'ish as it takes me so long. Love Lynne x

                    Im a new member. I log on once a day and i am guilty of not posting. But i get lots from reading others posts and find good tips etc. Maybe some come to the forum for differing reasons.

                            Yes Evelyn 2 hours to get showered and dressed. I can put most things on myself with massive effort, but Steve fastens my bras and sometimes puts my socks
                            and shoes on. I can do socks and shoes with massive effort but sometimes I don’t have the energy or inclination. Lynne x
