    So, Am I the First One to the New "Digs"????

    Where the heck is everyone else?

    Gee, you get your bell rung by an 18 wheeler 6 months ago and suddenly the forum goes to hell in a hand basket!

    Frost, it took me a while but I am back on. It took forever to get signed in, finally I emailed Mike and he straightened it out for me. I hope this place is as resilient as you are. If you can survive a collision with an 18 wheeler then this site can recover from another change.

        I made it too! Gosh, when I first got here the other day, I couldn't FIND Spinal Disorders!!! I hope this is the last change for a good while -- I'm not a creature of "change." LOL

        Hope all are doing well. Take care. Hugs, Lee

          I figured I would give it a whirl this AM to see if I could log in. It worked. Like Leeaelle, didn't see the Spinal Disorders forum right away. I'm here now and that a good thing (I think).

            AA, welcome back. The board is different but there are some similarities so it does feel too odd after you start posting. Glad to see you got logged back on.

              Hi everyone, I made it back. I have not been on in forever, was told to come and check it out so this is the first place I went to.

                Hi there. I'm here as well. I wondered what had happened to the forum. When did all this take place. I'm getting too old for change also. I posted somewhere yesterday, but I'm not sure where. Such a lot of folk have disappeared haven't they. I really think the first forum I started on, before the big crash, was the best one, but maybe I'm just being a stick in the mud!!! Do you remember when we used to post art, and poetry and all sorts, and then it all went pear shaped! Long time ago. Anyway nice to see you all

                  DDC, welcome back, I hope you come around on a regular basis.

                  Mary, I remember the old forum and it was a busy place with a lot going on. It would be nice to attract new members and get back to some of the things we used to discuss along with our spinal issues.

                      I remember the old days too Mary, had to check the board several times a day just to keep up back then! But like Mark, I also hope we can build this place back up again. It's really helped me over the years.

                        Hello and welcome Naominjw. As Mark says it would be nice to have new members. The original forum was an absolute life saver for me (mentally) but also because I was able to get the answers to so many questions, when I was facing my first spinal surgery. I have now had three, but will most probably have no more.
                        This place was once a mine of information. It will be interesting to see if this latest metamorphosis takes off. I really hope it does.

                            Aeryn, it is good to see you made it even though it took a while. I had trouble too and had to get Mike to get me registered again. People have been making it back a little at a time. I hope this new board brings in new people.
