Missing at @M1
I know people come and go and life changes, but I can’t help missing @M1s comments. I’ve been a member for years. I mostly read and learned, rarely commenting until more recently. I looked forward to the almost daily responses to members postings. Funny how that happens. You form an attachment of sorts on this forum to people you have never met.

I feel the same. At the same time, M1 has some healing to do. She's been through the wars.

I agree

I have been missing M1’s knowledge and presence also. He has had a long, hard journey. Hope he is doing ok.

M1 is special to me, too, always posting helpful comments.

I miss M1 too. I could use the expertise this week. However I totally understand why M1 ( and Ed1937 and others) need to disengage for their own health. I really want them to live life to the fullest they can now.

You said it perfectly

agree M1 has been very supportive

Only relatively new to this dreadfully sad and confusing part of life but this site is now my daily bible. The journey is shared, the knowledge is there. I was such a mess before I found this site, it is a family connection without judgement, always empathy and caring. I didn’t know M1 or Ed1947 but they must have been wonderful. If this part of their journey is finished hope they have found peace.

This site has become my ‘daily bible’ as well, I don’t know what I would do without all of the kind, insightful people here. Whenever I get upset (which is a LOT), this is where I come. @Quilting brings calm did state the situation perfectly. I miss M1 as well, but right now I’m sure it’s still very raw…rest and respite is the Rx needed now for those in Stage 8. Hopefully they’ll come back and ‘visit’ at some point.

I also miss M1 comments, experience and ideas. There was a calming and sense of I can get thru this once I read his comments. Wishing peace and healing.

Double ditto everyone's comments. As much as I miss M1 and Ed and so many others who have provided so much to this support forum, I hope their absence can only mean that they are healing and have moved on with their life. I hope we all can leave this forum someday.
