Hi all
You may, or may not have noticed, I haven’t been around for a little while, just thought I’d let you know all is well, I’m just taking a little break from the forum, to regroup.
I hope everyone is doing well, take care of yourselves.
Best wishes
Yes I’d noticed
Hope you’re feeling okay
Enjoy the break
@Mahoney Nice to see you, I too am ready for a wee break. Not just from the site but also the whole internet. My easy chair and a good book are in order. Hope you are doing well.

Hi @Mahoney I was going to drop you a message to see if you were ok. Thanks for letting us know. Hope all is ok and hopefully hear from you soon.
Take care

I have missed you, as well. I hope you will return soon. I also feel the need for a break. So much going on at once…feeling a bit overwhelmed. Have to get a better schedule set. I don’t know how long you plan to be away, or me either. I’m thinking a couple weeks to a month. I feel bad when I don’t answer new people and make them feel welome, but often lately, I have a lack for words. Truly hope you get rested and relaxed and that we will see you before too long.
@Mahoney and all you others hereabouts, from everyone
It is important to realise when it is time to take a break.
You’ll come back refreshed and it will still all be here.
We need you, we want you, so be kind to yourself.
We wouldn’t want it any other way.
Keep on keepin’ on
On a slightly different note does anybody know how Loshy is doing?
Hey @Mahoney
We’re glad to hear that you’re doing well, and it’s completely understandable to take a break and regroup when needed. Your well-being is important, and we support your decision to prioritise self-care. We’ll be here whenever you decide to return, and in the meantime, take good care of yourself too. Best wishes to you, and we look forward to seeing you back here whenever you’re ready. 
Hi, hope everything is ok, quite understand if you need a break. We are not going anywhere and will be here when you’ve recharged your batteries and feel ready to join us again.
Your well-being is paramount, so take care and stay safe.
Best wishes and regards Sue
@SimonInEdinburgh a couple of weeks ago I messaged Loshy. She was just back from a holiday & was doing ok. She’s trying to get her pain sorted & was waiting hearing from hospital I think.
Wish her well next time you talk to her 
Will do. I’ll let her know you asked after her.
Just thought I’d let everyone know that Loraine (Loshy) says hi & hopes you’re all ok.
Thanks Ann, I had been hoping she was okay. Everything is fine here with me, well as far as it can be good in stroke world. Please pass my best wishes to her when you next speak.
@Mrs5K
She had made herself very useful on the forum and although we understand the need for a break she was missed. She deserves a pat on the back for what she achieved.
@Bobbi i agree. She is missed on the forum. She needs to get her other health issues sorted so taking a break means she can do that. I’ll let her know qhat you said though.
Dear all,
@simoninedinburgh has asked me to post a few pics from his current road trip with Lea as he is unable to log in to the forum at the moment due to some perceived issues with the admin that I personally don’t agree with.
However he is currently trying to ‘appeal’ via the stroke association themselves. hopefully this will resolve the situation and he will be back with us soon.
I am in contact with him anyone let me know if you want to send him a message and he he will be at the 1pm zoom.

Lovely pictures. I hope they had a wonderful trip! I know they had some great food. I am very sad and frustrated Simon is not here to speak for himself.
