Farewell my fellows.  I apologise for having been such a troll.
I wish you well in your continuing mutual support as well
as in your support of newcomers.  Darryl and Patsy have been
an inspiration and I send you my special warm regards.  

Goodbye and best wishes,  Tim

Thanks for your thoughts and regards Tim.
I'm glad we could be of such inspiration and help in your life.
Darryl.

Tim, I hope you reconsider that.  You know, this whole thing with
terminology is confusing.  Heck, I'm a medical transcriptionist with
epilepsy and I still get confused.  You know, some of us aren't getting
heavy duty information from our doctors and we have to rely on other
ways of getting information, like this newsgroup.

I think another problem with writing messages or writing anything is
that things might sound completely different than if a person were to
speak the same words out loud.  I have to take everything I read with a
grain of salt because I can't 'hear' what was said, see facial
expressions or body movements and all the stuff that gives us clues on
what was really meant.

Then sometimes I think the person is having a problem with seizure
symptoms because they sound like myself when I have problems.  My gosh,
if we can't understand, relate to other people having the same kind of
problems as ourselves, I don't know what the purpose of this group is.

Not everyone is receptive to body language IRL anyway. To some of us, it
just passes us by like a secret code, because I never learned it, I
don't understand it, and I try to use words instead. Maybe that's why my
posts are often so long, as I try to avoid any misinterpretation and get
all the detail in as well.
