Goofynina and Epoman - Gone But Not Forgotten

WWW
« on: September 22, 2008, 08:57:52 AM »
IHD family, please celebrate with me! :yahoo;  It was this same day in 2005 that Ii checked a forum on 'nephron.com', I think it was called.  Well, posting on this site was a guy with this strange name 'Epoman' (what on  earth does that mean, I asked) and he was telling about a weirder-named website where you should go if you wanted the plain truth with no great censorship. I took his word, went over to IHD and was so helped.  It became a most important place to me.
Just want to say thank goodness for Epoman and his vision.

 :thumbup; Happy Anniversary, Bajanne!! :2thumbsup; So glad you're here. :cuddle;

It's been just about a year for me now on IHD, and what a difference it has made in my life and the lives of a number of other people, as I feel that much of the credit for my kidney donation must go to IHD for providing the information and inspiration I needed.  Indeed, thank goodness for Epoman and his vision; what an incredible legacy he left us.  And thank goodness, too, for all of you dedicated folks who have kept Epoman's vision alive after his passing.  It's a blessing and a miracle for which I am very grateful.

Again, Bajanne, thanks so much for being here, and HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

I joined the same time and there was a lady named Bananna-Jane (that is how I pronounced it).   I'm so glad I met you and found this site.

Thanks for the reminder! 

It's important to look back now and then to see how far we've come.  I really appreciate Epoman for his conviction and determination in starting this site.
