Hi!
I live in Southeastern WI (West Bend) and have had IC for three years. During that time I have never met or talked with anyone else who has the condition. I'm a pretty upbeat person but it does get lonely and I would very much like to find someone in Wisconsin or Illinois who would be interested in talking by phone as I find these boards rather impersonal. Anyone interested???

I just hope that I can give you all the emotional support that you have always given to me grouphug Thank you for being there for me alwalys........whether you live a few miles away or a few thousand miles away you all are very close to me in thoughts, prayers, and, in my heart

Hey Brat, I am with you, I do not think these boards are impersonal at all, I feel like all the gals are my family and it certainly has been a godsend to me, whether I am down or up, I come to the IC family and there is always a wonderful feeling of friendship between us all even if we do live miles and miles away from each, and a wonderful feeling of support. I feel and know that I can be open and honest about how I feel and get a wonderful sense of compassion and companionship amongst us. Thank you to the wonderful gals with IC that I can call my family, Iris kissing grouphug grouphug

Hi SSEllen, and others,

SSEllen, feel free to email, I have a pretty freee schedule so I'd love to "have coffee" with anyone sometime, thoguh I too, dont know where WestBend is, I'm from NY, so I dont know where much is :) But I agree with the others, that these message boards have made me feel like I am not alone, though I do agree that IC can be a lonely disease since it can be so debilating at times.
