Our Stories


Sometimes when you are dealing with a serious problem - as many of the people in this group do - you watch the world wandering happily by and want to either a) cry b) drown your sorrows c) say some rude words or d) all of the above, because it seems you are the only one in this sorry situation.

Well, you are not.  Although there will be ups and downs you will come out the other side. (Shall we rename this page "Kee-Wees Chicken Soup for the Soul"? or should that be "for the kidney"?  If so, dont put too much salt in it please, Im on a low sodium diet.)

The point we are getting to is, here are some of our stories because it is good to know that other people have been there and done that.
