This is the start of a new journey for me and my much loved friends from the original Oesophegus thread on general discussions.
We have become a close group and this will be our new home to continue our journey as life has become very hard for many of us and we keep re-living our journeys with lots of newbies which puts us all back a bit.
So my lovely friends Mel, Sam, Helen, Bern, Jac, Nic, Dawn, Sue, Cath, Lesley, Jani and the many other special friends Mel and I have made over the last 16 months this is it we have a new home.
Love to all and extra strength to carry us through our next stage XXX

Hello Helen, thank you for making me feel welcome, you guys always have so can't imagine why I've never posted on here before. There's nothing wrong with having a few 21st birthdays I swear by them! Hx
When My Mum passed away my lovely friends on here had started a similar thread called 'A prayer fot Mellybubs Mum'. I could only briefly read the messages at the time, because everything was so raw, but to know that so many were standing by my side helped me find the strength and courage to face the most difficult of times. I even printed the messages off and tacked them to Mum's Hospice wall.
Now I treasure that topic as it brings me comfort when I am alone. I often read back and remember what was happening at the time that someone was posting, and one post inparticular from Bern was placed at the exact time my Mum left this world.
I was hoping that everyone would post to Jac on her 'All mouth' Thread so that she would get all the messages, and that they would be in one place for her, when she is ready. Please feel free to post where you wish though, because these messages can always be copied over.
All of Jac's amazing friends have already brought her so much comfort, but now the hardest part of the journey for her now begins, our dear friend who feels so lost and alone needs us all more than ever.
Thank you Donna and Juls for spreading the word, you are both so very kind.
I know that celebrating your 13th wedding anniversary today must be so very difficult because of your love for Jac. Remember that she would be telling you to treasure these times, and celebrate for the love that you and T share, as well as the love that Jac and Dan share.
I do so understand where you are coming from in this and can relate to you with regards to the rawness and pain of grief. I so felt that when my mum died just over 2 yrs ago . I kept all manner of things and from time to time now go back to them even now and suspect I will continue to do so.
I cannot begin to imagine just how Jac is feeling at this point in time, well maybe an inkling, but not the enormity of her loss. I will copy your message about the time of the funeral into Donna's topic so as to inform people that post there.
I hope today will bring you and your family some peace.
Congratulations on the wedding anniversary. These are important milestones and mean so much between people that have chosen to spend their lives together. As Melanie has just said treasure these special days. I know our anniversary this year meant so much more to me, well to both of us, than all of the others rolled in to one. I will be raising a glass to Jac and her Dan tonight.
Em today is a good day for anniversaries, and thank you for your birthday wish to me. That also meant a lot.
Sorry for not posting as much as usual but things have not been too good here as this time last year was really bad for Dad and I am reliving every single day and as a lot of you know it's tough. I've also had problems with some family members which really got to me yesterday as things like that, can take away from what really matters. Thank you to those of you who have, yet again, been here for me, it means so much.
Jac - I can't seem to find any words for you hun. This is a really hard time for you and your children and my heart goes out to you all. I send you much love, strength and courage X
Bern - Your dear dad must be so very proud of you and no, you don't sound at all mad talking to him. You should have seen me last night B, I wasn't so much hairy mary as scary mary, after I'd had a couple of drinks and I'd let things get to me too much. You're right, this is a tough part but I'm back to one day at a time again and hoping that I can keep my head above water. Thank you for your lovely words, as always. I hope your weekend has been a good one X
Helen - (((((((((((((hugs))))))))))))) you be ab fab mate X
Mel - you too hun X
Kelsey - hun, this is so difficult for you worrying about your dad and also seeing how upset your mum is. I hope you are ok this weekend. You're right, we are always here X
Em - that song makes me cry everytime I hear it and I put the words from it on Dad's thread last week as they are so lovely. Thanks for putting it on here for us all X
Wendy - (((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))) for you and little one X
Rochelle - you post when you feel able to hun and don't worry, we are here whenever you need X
Michelle - the same goes for you too X
Heidi - of course we don't mind you being here, it's so lovely to see you. You come and share with the rest of us hun whenever you want to X
Juls - I've already wished you happy birthday on the other thread but again, hope you are having a good day X
Well, I will be having a couple(??) of drinks later so will raise my glass to all my fantastic friends here as I will be thinking of you all, especially Jac.
Good to hear from you. I am OK - have a few nice things planned to do with dad so hopefully for now my job here is to help my friends who are going through difficult times.
Hugs all around, I never run out as I always tell my daughter! Hers run out you see and sometimes she'll turn to me and say "I'm sorry I can't hug you any more I've run out for today!"
I have changed my name back today, purely because it is the day after DH's Funeral and if I did not change it today, then I don't think I would be able to change it.
I have kept a copy of a page with all the names listed that included 'Jac' in their username, just so Jac can see what the site actually looked like when she is ready.
I know that some could not change their name for numerous reasons, and Jac will know that their support was no less than those that did. When she is ready to read through all the messages properly I'm sure that they will go some way to healing the hurt.
I hope today is a little kinder to Jac, and a little kinder to us all.
