Nathalie, thank you for the update about Jacki! I can't get on her new page, so can't read there!
Quote Maarten: "cool forum friends we are, i am proud of us.."
Yeaahhh Maarten, that is right! I also think it is wonderful that we all sent cards and CD's to Jacki. To show her that we care about her and that she is in our thoughts and prayers.
You know, besides Jans and my kids, I now and then also talk about my online friends to my family (brother-sisters, in-laws ) / co-workers / friends and others. I sometimes see them looking at me as if they can't understand how much friends, I met at the forums for a long time. mean to me! I explain that although I didn't meet most of them, that they are a part of my life. I read their stories and know what is going on in their lives. I perhaps even know more about them then I know about co-workers or some friends I meet twice a year! LOL
By receiving cards with Christmas, birthday's or in cases like illness, the friends online become to others outside the forums, real people. By watching the cards Jacki will get from the MK fans, people will know how much she is loved and what kind of wonderful group of people she is a member of. ...........I sure would be proud to show ALL the cards from my friends to other people, and I think Jacki will have the same feeling and it will make her happy too!
Uuuhh what did the 3 musketeers say?
One (MK) for all and all for one (Jacki)
