Question:

I thought he might be a medical professionnal and maybe a caregiver… But no way to tell for sure as long as he doesn’t tell us who he is. I hope he’ll learn to behave and find a more human attitude so he can find his place in this ng. Noella – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – Like you Susan, I read the post about bone problems- either he’s been on pred or he’s a postmenopausal woman :-0.  Also, there’s just no way anyone’s reading CCFA’s IBD journal unless they have this illness or they’re a medical professional specializing in it. writes: Sue didn’t say.  She just said he did have IBD.  Sorry can’t help more. UM MOM Susan So, does s/he have UC or CD? I guess I missed that post. Rebecca Sue very well put.  And I am glad you cleared up that NA does have IBD. I have asked because it is hard to take advice from someone who hasn’t been in our shoes.  I believe I read the other day that he said something about bone problems or something.  I too feel he is a very bright intelligent person and has some excellent input.  I just wish he would learn to stop the flaming and realize it doesn’t help anyone including himself.  UM MOM Susan That’s right, anyone and everyone is welcome here so long as they follow the (few) ng rules as set forth in the charter. If Fran had no connection at all to IBD, so long as she followed those rules she would be welcome here.  As it is, she is indeed a caregiver: she’s been helping out a very close friend whose little girl has IBD and who isn’t as Usenet savvy as Fran, and this situation while improved is far from resolved. OTOH, even people with IBD (and yes, NA does have IBD) have to follow the rules or they risk instructions being posted on the ng on how to complain to their ISPs. The not flaming rule isn’t applied evenly: on one end of the spectrum, people who come here simply to get their jollies starting flamewars are shown the door pretty quickly, on the other end, people who are long time regulars and slip up once in awhile find their slipups ignored or are mildly admonished, which typically leads to an apology, and all is right with the world again. NA is a rather odd amalgalm of helpful and flamer.  I say rather odd because usually people with IBD who have ‘flaming’ personalities (I await the double entendres on that last phrase!) typically either come to realize that the flaming ruins the giving and receiving of support, and quit it, or decide the ng is ‘no fun’ and go away. This realization usually comes especially quickly to those who appear from their posts, as NA does, to be extremely intelligent.  I *think* what’s going on in NA’s head is that by flaming people who make a lot of errors, or who he views as ‘poseurs’, he’ll be driving them away and improving the signal to noise ratio in the ng. In reality, it’s easy enough to correct people’s mistakes without flaming, and flaming invariably, without exception, degrades the quality of the ng. It’s sad, because NA does often make very positive contributions to the ng, and increasing numbers of people don’t even see them because they block him so as not to see the flames.  And in yet another way in which he’s showing poor judgment, it sure seems from tracing his address and looking at the pattern of posting that he is doing so from work.  At some point he’s going to ’stalk’ someone here who then turns around and posts the name of the place he’s posting from, the exact server he’s posting from, and the names, addresses and phone numbers of 2 people to complain to at that place.  Since there isn’t that much expertise needed, it’s only a matter of time. I want to join Rebecca in thanking everyone for not flaming, and exhorting people to ignore NA by not responding to his flames, or by blocking him if he really bothers you. And now, by popular request, the ng charter: What is Alt.support.crohns-colitis? Alt.support.crohns-colitis was created in early 1994 as a forum where people suffering from ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s Disease, and irritable bowel syndrome can share their everyday struggles with these illnesses, as well as discuss medicines, treatments, surgery, diet, health care providers, related illnesses, and anything else anyone can think of that relates to these diseases.  In other words, this is the online equivalent of a support group, which means that no question is stupid and no condition embarrassing here.  It also means we’re all here to help each other out, so please be nice, be polite, and no flaming. Discussions of all types of medicine- conventional and alternative, Western and Eastern, your Aunt Harriet’s home remedies, whatever- are welcome here; however, any person discussing a potential remedy which he or she also sells must explicitly begin the "Subject" header of their post with the word "AD" or "ADVERTISEMENT" in all caps, regardless of whether or not they profit from such sales.  Spamming is expressly forbidden as violating the rules of netiquette as well as those of this newsgroup.

Response:

NA, I can explain very easily why Fran is very much an asset to this group. First, she came here to get knowledge about IBD to help Arrianne and Beth. That is true love and friendship.  Second, Fran is a mother to her own children and though they don’t have IBD thank goodness there are medical and emotional needs for all children and she manages to tend to her own family and still find time to try to learn to help another family.  And finally, she helps those of us when we are sick to not give up and reminds us why.  I think all these things are a big asset and valuable contribution to this group and that is why she is my friend.  I don’t think I can say it any plainer.  Love and compassion is a powerful tool for everyone.  UM MOM Susan

If this is something that would interest the group (and somehow I doubt it, given its name, but I’m prepared to be proven wrong) then all discussion should be kept within the group. — Fran

Response:

Thanks to everyone for not turning this into a flame war — just two observations: 1. As far as I know (and please correct me if I am wrong, Sue) there is no where in the ng charter that says ONLY people with IBD may post here. In fact, some of the most knowledgeable, wonderful, supportive people we have here are caregivers of people with IBD. Fran would fall into that category. 2. As far as I remember (and anyone can correct me on this one) NA has never once said that he/she has any form of IBD (or is a caregiver). So, if we were to apply his logic to himself — then we should just "ignore" him/her. Rebecca

Hey Fran, There is no need to act like a jackass. I’ve had Crohn’s for a long time. I’m going to start using this product to help counteract problems that I have had due to Crohn’s and the use of medications that I have used. I posted here for help not insults. Have a nice day.
