Regarding private messages.........

If you do NOT wish to receive private messages, go to your User Control Panel. Click on "Board Preferences". Go to the option that says Receive private messages from others users and click on "no".

Voila!

I was wondering if there's a place on this site where you can keep a journal of sorts.

Today hasn't been one of my better days, and I think I'd feel better if I wrote some things out, but I don't want anyone to see it. Is it possible to have something like that here?

Not that I know of, Sue. I'm sorry. What about emails to a trusted friend? That's what I used to do.
Big hugs,

You could even send an email to yourself if you don't want anyone to see what you are writing and just want to get it out. I have written in a journal. I don't do that on a regular basis though.

So far I am really enjoying the full spectrum of the WS forum. There is one difficulty with the volunteer menu. When I try to go there the link is either inop or unavail. It gives me an error message telling me I am not auth to view the page. Just wondering is there something else I should be doing first? Thanks for your reply.

not sure if there is a problem with the PhB. I responded to your PM - Richard might be able to assist with this.

How about a board for genetic hereditary diseases. My ex has Huntington's Disease and my children are at risk. My ex and I separated a number of years ago but I am now faced with adult children and the decision they face. I want to support them but it feels like the nightmare never ends.

You can post under Specific Illnesses with your concerns.
There is a local former well spouse whose wife died of HD; he has a grown daughter who chose not to get tested, and is married and an adoptive mother. He said that most who are at risk choose not to get tested; he was active in the local HDA group. I hope you have a group in your area.

Dear crettman (and others), Re: volunteer link on the web page.:

I think I found the bug you referred to, and fixed it. When one clicks on Volunteers in the top menu bar, there is a dropdown menu, and the next to last item is Help in the WSA Office.

I changed the link in the file it opens, so that the link now goes here:

http://www.wellspouse.org/contact-us-office-staff/donna-mcquade.html?catid=12

Try it -- you'll see a form page to send an Email to Donna McQuade, our Office Manager.

Best, Richard
