WELCOME, Shannon to the UBPN Family.
All of us in the Seattle area need to meet at a Starbucks(they are easy to Spot!) on I-5 soon before life gets really busy in the summer. I suggest Southcenter.
Any takers?? ...keeping it informal... I will also post this on the BPI Events Forum.
HUGS,
Carolyn J

- Injury Description, Date, extent, surgical intervention etc: LOBPI. I am 77 yrs old and never had a name for my injuries until 2004 when I found UBPN at age 66.
My injuries are: LOBPI on upper body and Cerebrael Palsy on the lower left extremities. The only intervention I've had is a tendon transplant from my left leg to my left foot to enable flexing t age 24 in 1962. Before that, my foot would freeze without notice on the side when wearing heels AND I always did wear them at work "to fit in" I also stuttered until around age 18-19...just outgrew it...no therapy for it. Also suffered from very very low self esteem; severe Depression and Anxiety attacks started at menopause. I stuffed emotions and over-compensated in every thing I did to "fit in" and be "invisible". My injuries were Never addressed or talked about until age 66. I am a late bloomer!!!!!

Hello Susan!
Even if it's just the 2 of us, we'll meet and talk at Starbuck's in SouthCenter, OK? How about a Monday soon. It would certainly make my Monday!
Susan, I am retired with no children (son is an adult now) so please name a Monday here and let's see if others will join us. I look forward to meeting you.
HUGS,
Carolyn J

Hi all,
Julia I am on now.
Yes, I would love to meet everyone and hear what they would like to see at camp for next year.
As I said on the General Board depending on day and time, usually I can make it work.
Have a great week-end everyone.
Hugs, Karen

Very sorry, gentleman from somewhere in Oregon, who showed up at Starbuck's after Julia and Karen had to cancel. I was on my way up I-5 "just in case"..when I too got an emergency call on my Cell phone & had to come back home...No, it wasn't regarding Maggie,thank God.
Maybe another time.
HUGS,
Carolyn J

Like ships in the night, this time [:^)=8
hunhhh?
'Sokay, my fault for not callin' you before I headed up there, but it never crossed my mind that (maybe) I'd be the only one to come. I was looking forward to seeing you all, and will hold that thought for another time. This being only my second post, you've prob'ly not had ocaission to check my profile. Skimpy, IMHO, but it is there.
HUGS back atcha!!
