Hey! I just noticed from Heather's newsletter of January 29, 2003 that she was just announcing the DEBUT of our Message Boards! Our anniversary was YESTERDAY!!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO US! Good work, Heather!
Now, as a fun thing to do to celebrate, lets hear from everyone who was a party to the debut! Anyone?

(I didn't realize this board was only a year old! No wonder I hadn't found it before. Been spending all my time on the fibromyalgia sites this year.)

Heather asked me over a year ago to be a moderator. I didn't even know what a moderator was! I'm sure glad I found out because in the last year, I have learned SOOOO much and have "met" a lot of really neat people on this board. It has been an honour to be a part of this board. Happy 1st to all! How many thousand members do we have now?????

This is so cool! Thanks Bev! What's most wonderful to me is that just about everyone who was around for the debut (especially our fabulous moderators) is still here. Sharon Mello is the only one we've lost, and she's still on board occasionally. And everyone who has come on board since (including you, sweetie pie!) has been just wonderful and has made such terrific contributions.
Okay, I'm gushing, but I really would like to thank everyone who is posting or just lurking for being a part of what I think are hand-down the most positive, helpful, and friendly IBS boards on the whole web.

I have so much to be grateful for. When Heather suggested I join the boards a year ago, I think I was still in denial over my confirmed diagnosis. Oh, I had read her books and had posted the solubles and insolubles lists on my fridge, was pretty much a vegetarian by then, but I still enjoyed my coffee, my Jack, dairy products (oh that cheese!), and of course my beloved salads -- lots of salads, in fact salads every day. Cramps and diarrhea were daily occurrences for me, but I was in denial -- I figured it was simply "mind over matter." I could control my body, my body would heal itself. My symptoms just got worse, and I was having to take my meds almost every day to try to counter-act all the bad foods I was eating (not to mention all that wonderful coffee)!
I wish I had joined the boards a year ago; it would have saved me a lot of pain and anguish. Anyway, I'm grateful to be here now, and I commend Heather for all she has done -- for all of us -- so if I had a Jack in my hand right now, I'd raise it to Heather. THANK YOU, Heather!

Thanks to HanSolo and especially Heather for making this the best forum I've ever seen. I've been to lots of lists and none of them are this friendly and welcoming. You are doing an excellent job.
I have learned SO MUCH on this board. Thanks to everybody for all the contributions.
