I don't have much to say, really, as the same crap bugs me. I've run out of novel things to say, but I do read. I’ve been quiet in the community.

The thing is, nobody would say the exact same thing on a same/similar topic. And even then, we each have our own styles to say it. This means that if I say it one way, and you say it another way, we expand the chances of people "getting it". Besides, sometimes repetition is good. Imagine someone doing research on BIID in 2 or 3 years, and finds 10 people bringing up the same issue. It'll be stronger than if it's only one person saying it. Last I heard, Jolina was doing well, having had double below knee amputations. They were doing revision amputations nearly daily, so she might still end up a DAK. I have not heard from her in about a week though. She promised an email update as soon as she can. Ashley, I'll email you. Lulu, yes, please, introduce yourself :) Dante, don’t worry too much about coming up with “new” stuff. The thing is, nobody would say the exact same thing on a same/similar topic.

Many times I'd tried to write just a comment, but I at the end I feel that it's isn't exactly what I would like to say, or as now I'm just going to say empty words, and after that I delete it. Not this time (althought they're only empty words) Maybe I could try to write a little description of myself, I've read almost all the blog, I haven't write many comments... I feel like I know some of you but I still remain as an unknown person. Jolina? I hope she's ok I could try to write something, but I know that it will be very hard to me.

I'm thinking of her all the time and hope she is fine after that experiment... Not exactly an answer to this but – has anybody heard anything from Jolina?

A lot of times I think about something, and I go to compose it, and then I check on the site, and someone has covered that 'thought/idea' already. It's not a 'race', but sometimes I feel like I'm left in the dust, because I'm not as prolific as a writer as some of the others involved on the site. I think I will take up your 'challenege' of sorts, though.
