Goodbyes and Thankyou's

[winegirl]

Below is a copy of a message I posted to the staff at PNI ORG UK, but it is equally important that I share it with all the fabulous ladies I have met on here over the years:

As some of you already know, last night I resigned as Trustee from PNI ORG UK. A decision that I have possibly been making for some time, but one that was sealed yesterday. I have made this decision, with deep sadness, and hope you all know how much I have and do still care about you all and PNI ORG UK.

However, it is time for me to leave, but I just wanted to spend out so much special thanks before, to let you know how grateful I am. I have made some truly special friends and encountered some wonderful people through PNI ORG UK over the years, and I am so thankful for this.

Those who truly understand me, will appreciate how hard this decision was to make. PNI ORG UK and it's ethos have been my passion, and one i still truly believe in. I hope that you can all build on the success of PNI ORG UK and take it further so.

I will still be here until Veritee accepts my resignation (I am not sure she has read it yet), after which point i will be removed from the charity commision and subsequently I will remove myself from the forum.

Much love and all the best for the furture

This message was originally posted in the admin and mods section of the board, but more importantly I would like to thank all of you guys for everything over the last few years. It has been an amazing time and I have met some truly amazing people. You will always be in my heart, and I wish everyone who uses this service all the very best for the future. Thank you all for having me!

Love always

I know you are doing this for the right reasons but as you know you will be sorely missed, if I can ever do anything please ask, I owe you a lot. However I will understand if you feel that moving on means you never take that offer up.

Hi hun

So sad to hear you are leaving PNI ORG but totally understand if you feel the time has come to move on.

You have been such a valued member on the site and I personally want to thank you for the great support and kindness you have shown me in the short time I have been posting on the site.

I wish you all the luck in the world with your beautiful family and new career, you are on such an exciting journey and I am so happy for you.

Lots of Love

Hi hun

So sorry to hear your news - you will be very missed! Thank you for all your support you have given me over the past few years, for always answering my posts no matter how trivial and ranty they were and for sharing your parenting experiences with me making me feel less neurotic!

I wish you luck in everything you do in the future and completely understand why you must do this.

Lots of Love

Hi WG
I know I havent been on the forum for a while, as you know this is because I have been ill and having personal difficulties and felt I had to distance myself, saying this I do not feel awkward coming back and posting now as I know that this forum is always a welcoming and safe place for me to come.

I just wanted to say the biggest thank you to you, for all have done for me personally and all the other ladies you have helped and supported over the years. You have been an inspiration for many and have given so much to pni.org.

From my first posts on here you were there and now, one of the best friends I have ever known and trusted, through good and bad mate.
I know how very hard a decision it was for you to leave but I totally understand why you are going. Whilst sat in my course today we were doing a workshop on Balancing in Volunteering, and I was sat thinking about you, thinking how the hell you have managed to balance your life up to now, with everything you do, but now is the time to concentrate on your future, your last year is everything and you are going to pass with flying colours, and Im going to be there with my camera to post you on facebook in your tit gown and cap (your words I think!). Followed by lots of drinking of course lol x
And then....
You are going to be amazing!! ... you are amazing...

Love you mate

Bean,

You are the best thing to come out of this. I adore you and will be there for you every day forever. You are the reality of PNI. No bull sh**, just you and your life. You are the one who has consistently shown that life is not just about one person but about all who matter, and I am forever grateful for your presence.

And remember, we are invincible xx

Thank you my friend x

Hi Winegirl,

I nearly managed to miss this thread because of my sporadic spare time, and I have to say I felt a bit sad reading that you will be leaving.

I just wanted to add my thoughts and say how much you will be missed and that I too have really appreciated your input since I joined a year and a half ago. Particularly your commitment to not letting a post go unaswered, even if it's a couple of words to let someone know it has been read and they are being thought about. That really makes a difference and helps us all feel welcome and put at ease about using the site. I have found your honesty inspiring and your humour and "normal"ness has cheered me up too.

It must have been a tough decsision to make to resign because I know how passionate you are about helping women with PNI and I know in your future career you will still do that as I am sure you will come across women with PNI in your role as psychiatric nurse and you will be able to make a real difference.

If there is ever another get together for the forum I hope you might still be able to come, because I would love to meet you in person one day.

Take care and all the best with your studies and future career. See you on facebook!
Love N x
