Dear 60isolderthanithot, if you are having trouble logging in, we just wanted you to know that we miss you. You've been getting lots of messages of support on your private threads, but I know you cannot read them unless you're logged in. Therefore, I am posting this message here on the "General" forum -- where you can read even if not logged in. FYI, if you are having technical difficulties, you can post on the tech forum without logging in. If you need to contact the moderators privately, but cannot log in, the moderator email address is posted here: takeonestepatatime.proboards.com/thread/3990/mod-team-listing-contactBut please know -- we UNDERSTAND if you just happen to need some time/space away from the forums. You have amnesty from any obligation to post anything. We can respect your privacy -- and you have no need to explain. We will understand if you needed to choose to focus your attention elsewhere. There is no obligation to reply! We just wanted to reach out to you --- in case you are having trouble logging in --- to let you know that we care. Love, from all your friends here at SOS.

Glad you posted this Lioness. Adding my "second" to the sentiment.

Thank you, Lioness. (I didn't think of that- her not being able to read what we wrote on her blog if she can't sign in.) This is a good idea. We miss you, 60, and wish you well.

Does anybody have contact info for 60? I know of the city in which she lives, does anybody have a name for her or a phone number? Please pm if so.

I'm sure if anyone has contact details they wouldn't pass them on to anyone else without '60's' permission.
I'm missing her posts too. I admire her resourcefulness and determination and the way she's been able to cope with some 'rock-bottom' experiences.

I, too, miss 60 and hope she is safe and well. She has inspired so many of us with her wisdom, courage and grace under pressure.
However, while all of us hope she will be back, there's a huge difference between expressing our affection and support here, which is appropriate, and stalking her, which is not. Tracking her down IRL is not only inappropriate, it would be a gross violation of her privacy.
If 60 is willing and able to come back to us, she will. But please, unless or until that happens, leave her alone.

I guess autism spoke again. I'm worried about what if she has passed away. I'm sorry I don't have regular social skills.

If the worst has happened, it has happened, and nothing any of us does now will change that.
If her family wishes to reach out to us, they will.
If they don't, we should respect their right to privacy.
That being said, I choose to look on the bright side and consider other possibilities. Perhaps 60 won the lottery and is at this very moment enjoying the life she so very much deserves!

I miss her too and hope that bittyboo is right and she is " enjoying the life she so very much deserves"!

As sad as it can be for us, sometimes people leave this board without a word, and we never know. It's their right to do that, we have no requirements here (after all, we are demand resistant enough, many of us). We have to respect that.
If anyone does have her contact information, and 60 is open to it, perhaps that person could simply tell her she is very much missed. That would be sufficient.
If no one does have her info, it's not wise to try to go tracking people down from this site. Many of us need to stay anonymous, and knowing people here would do that could compromise their feelings that they could share things here.

Aw, Blackswan, I understand your impulse to try to find out if she's okay. I mean, I understand what others are saying about respecting privacy, but I know your idea just came from concern for her well-being.
I think you can keep the deerstalker cap for another occasion ;-)
