I’d been wondering, too, since she’d been so vocal on the forums before. I hope everything’s going well for her.
Well, I can tell you she’s alive and well, but I don’t know why she’s left Nameberry unfortunately.
[name_f]Sarah[/name_f] please give her a message to say that we miss her if you have better connections than we do.
And to answer someone’s question do the alarm bells ring when an old berry goes missing? In my long nameberry experience there would be only a handful of berries that seem to have been missed and to my knowledge no one has sent out a general SOS thread looking for a berry.
So blade can you please just check in for a minute to say that you are okay?
rollo xx
Hey guys! [name_m]Don[/name_m]'t know anything and I’m not in the inner circle at all. I just wanted to say [name_m]Blade[/name_m] if you’re reading this we all hope everything is well and you’re doing great. It’s so nice to have a doctor in the forum. I also respect you so much. And I like that you the way you go after trolls, (I think I see trolls but never say anything).
Good [name_m]Luck[/name_m]!
[name_f]Sarah[/name_f], you’ve spoken with her recently?
I think that if she’d just dropped off of Nameberry because of busyness with family and surgery, she might still lurk around here once in a while. I have no time for baby naming lately, but I still can’t resist sneaking a peek here and there. Something tells me her absence is more deliberate. She got into a rather heated exchange on the ttc thread just before she left, and then she air-dropped that study about homebirth vs hospital birth, but never commented on the thread. I worry that she felt disrespected or frustrated or something, and decided to throw the baby out with the bathwater… as it were.
Weird to say about someone you know only over the web, but I care about her, and was beginning to think of her as a friend. Being both self-centered and self-loathing, I assume it was something I did. If that’s the case, I would like to apologize. [name_m]Blade[/name_m] you gave me so much support in PMs, and I fear it wasn’t equally reciprocated. You were kind and understanding when I laid out all manner of crazy life shit. You helped me see possibility where I’d felt totally boxed in. You listened and responded with clarity even when I was being an idiot. If there’s ever anything you need, I would jump at the chance to do you a kindness. You literally changed my life.
I very much hope you are in good health and spirits. I miss you.
I’ve missed her and her intelligent posts also. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] things are well with you, [name_m]Blade[/name_m].
Ditto on the missing.
But expect the whole thing is just business.
(I went through a few weeks where I could only post one or two things cause well stupid busy,
I’d assume it’s probably similar for her, and she’ll be back.)
I was never really close to her like many other Berries were, but I definitely appreciated her insight and willingness to give advice. I’ve been thinking about her too and hope everything’s well with her!
I just found this thread and wanted to thank everyone for their kindness and concern-- it’s extremely touching. What a great group of people nameberry attracts!
You’re back! I haven’t been around the main forums much lately, so I didn’t realize. Congrats on your new little one!
Thanks [name_f]Tara[/name_f]. When are you due?
[name_m]EDD[/name_m] is [name_u]March[/name_u] 4th, but I’ll be surprised to make it that far. Short cervix, light activity, blah blah blah :rolleyes:
