I LOVE OKAROL ( not what you think)

[Bajanne]

A big ditto to all that everyone has said.  Having had the special privilege of meeting Okarol I need to say that she is a beautiful person inside and out.
Love you loads, Karol, and appreciate you loads more!

I just got off the phone - trying to get Meals on Wheels for my mom - boy I hope it works.
I am behind in my census work - hope the Feds don't stop by to check on me.
My cold is almost better, whew!
Anyway, all I have to do is come read this thread and I feel better!!

I've told her before, but she won't listen, She should take a break or a vacation from the pc, but she is addicted to it
If she was on Survivor (If that show is still around), she would be the first to try to be kicked off so she can have computer access to keep in contact with everyone. 
 
Your much appreciated around here Karol, but family and you come first. Take a break at times and get as much rest as possible.

Love, Mimi

Everyday I plan on posting here.  But, I keep trying to find the right words.  I feel like Okarol has been a part of my life forever.  She is always just a click away.  We have shared some special moments together.  Sluff's Vegas wedding!  Holding hands during Goofynina's service. We were holding tight and crying and then after the nun said "Jeesuuuuussss" for the 100th time, we started giggling!  You know how it is when you are so incredibly sad and something strikes you as funny and you just can't help but smile? That is what happened to us. Vandie was there and was doing the same thing!  I have met Jenna and she has met Beth, so we feel very connected as Mothers.  And who could forget Chicago?  Chris and Patton with all the phones, GPS's and laptops!    Simply put - I love Okarol.  She has made this disease so much easier to deal with.  She is my Hero, my inspiration and guiding light.   I would walk through fire for her.   My heart aches for the trials she's going through right now. I lift her in prayer and ask God to hold her tight right now.

Very beautifully expressed, Paris.  It brought tears to my eyes (as well as a smile).
I just love my IHD family!!

[Slywalker]

Just saw this thread and what fun it was to read it. 
OKarol - smile for your are so loved by so many, including me.  You touch people's lives in ways you don't even know about.  You are one big solid rock for IHD. 

Thank you OKarol for everything you do for this online community.      

[okarol]

I just took look at this again, made me smile. 
We do what we do here on IHD because we love all of you!
There's nothing like the support and understanding you get from someone who has been in your place.
The forum would be nothing without the mods and members who participate here.
And the fact that we can laugh and cry together makes it even better.
Have a great day IHD!!! \

Just read this thread and I wholeheartedly agree with all the posts. Karol is the rock of IHD. I've had telephone conversations with her and she has a knack of making you feel completely at ease. Karol for all you do for IHD, a big thank-you. If you were in England I'd nominate you for an MBE.

[okarol]

  Thanks Ken!
What's an MBE?
