Anon and All, Like everyone else, I too have a very busy life. However, the way people use the "Subject" line makes it very easy to sift through those I want to read and those I don't have time for. Also, how does one decide what is serious or not? What is of major concern to one person can be of no interest to another. Personally, I really need all of the messages that appear. It puts life into perspective. I am also reminded of how far I have come as a parent in handling CAH. Even though I live in the St. Louis metropolitan area, I don't know anyone else who is dealing with the situation (until Anne moves here!). My family and friends are great, but they just don't get it. This is my support. My suggestion would be to not have two different boards. But to ask that all who post to make sure the subject line clearly reflects what is being written about (for the most part they already do). And if the subject is going to change in the middle of a thread, to please start a new thread. If someone knows that what they are going to post is off the topic of CAH, then they can start the subject with OT (off topic). JanetJanet
