I never post much anymore, but I still read and get much from this site. That said, I wanted to repost part of the mission statement of this organization. You can find this on the "home" page of this website.
To provide the best lung cancer center on the web that fosters hope and support for those diagnosed with lung cancer and their families.
I don't think that this organization's mission is to be all things for all people. Someone posted on here that you can't make everyone happy, but you can make everyone "welcome". I totally agree with that. Someone also said that you can't measure grief, and whos to say the grief over losing your spouse is greater or less than the loss of a child?
The managers of this website would have to create a forum in each catagory for spouses, children, partners, friends, etc....just to be fair! right now, the general grief catagory covers everyone.
I think we should even be thankful we even have a grief forum to begin with because no other website has one at ALL. Check ACOR, SLCA, LAF and others. NONE of them have a grieving support section.
My two cents is if everyone can't get along together and post together, then get rid of the grief forum altogether. Just my opinion.
