I Enjoy Seeing Bill's Post. My Boyfriend Is Supportive But He Does Not Like Me Getting On The Computer And Visiting This Website. I Try To Explain To Him That It Gives Me Hope And Is A Great Support. He Just Doesn't Get It.

On another board today, there was a MASSIVE amount of "drama" about men posting there. Really--it went on for six pages. I wanted to give my two cents, but kept my mouth shut. This thread is EXACTLY why I spend my time here...

NO matter who has this awful thing, it affects everyone who loves, cares and is a part of what we are all going through. I must not be very "shy", but if my deepest emotions, thoughts and fears help one person out there to get through another day of all of this, go ahead and read!

I love it that there are men who post and respond here. Look at Joe--would this site run as well as it does without him? I think not.

Here's to the men who love the women who are battling this, and to the men who are fighting as well.

Hugs!
