I found it interesting to see Geoff"s first post, so I was inspired to find my first post. (click here (http://www.wegeners-granulomatosis.com/forum/new-member-introductions/1223-wg-pituitary-involvement.html)).
The first response was from ChrisTin@, which is interesting because her avatar is very close to a picture (http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/photo-contest/2012/entries/161761/view/) I took a while back. I guess we both like purple.

And, of course, Jack was next and Sangye followed soon after. All good people.

That was really interesting and at the same time a bit emotional which surprised me. Now I will look up my first post. Best to you.

I can remember how I cried when I googled wg once I was dx. I thought I was surely going to die within a few months. The unknowing is so scary.Glad I found this forum :)

Me to. I was one of those who read the internet and found out I had less than 5 years to live. Since then I have learned to not take the internet at face value.

One thing I have learned is how to avoid scams. If you send me $5, I'll tell you how to spot a scam too. :-)

I remember reading this and thinking - what else and where else can we get this stupid disease :predrage:

I wasn't an official member back then because I didn't think I had much of any interest to tell or say to anyone :ohmy:

My husband convinced me to join in the December - and look at me now :tongue1::flapper:

This, therefore, is your official WELCOME, to the forum vdub :thumbsup:

Ah, thank you, Michelle! You are a huge and valuable contributor! I'm glad you joined. With people all over the world, the forum pretty much has someone on 24/7. Kind of neat in that regard.

I belong to several other forums on various subjects and they aren't nearly as nice as this one.

Then our five years are almost up!:wink1:

OMG!! Me, too, Debra! All the while having to be "tough" for the kids so they wouldn't worry about their mom. My husband had it worst because while I was fighting in the hospital, he was the one originally on the computer. Freaked him out big time!

I think he meant those were the people that welcomed him Kathy.

Here's my first post (http://www.wegeners-granulomatosis.com/forum/new-member-introductions/962-hey-all-new-member-here.html) DRZ, Phil, Elephant, and Sangye on the first page. Seems a long time ago.

Searched backwards in the welcome forum. I was around page 20 I think.

How do you find you first post?

You go to your own profile, and read the first page of 'Find latest posts'. At least, that's what I did.
I re-read the kind and welcoming words of many forummembers.

My posts only go back to last 500. The oldest thread I could find was a thread I started a few days after i joined and there I saw responses from Andrew, Jack, and Sangye. My list of started threads only went back to last 99 threads though so there might have been some thing earlier. But it is interesting to read an entry from over four years ago.
