Poppcat...Stirring the pot isnt allowed unless you know what your talking about. Selling houses is a big part of going home and giving other people ideas on how to do it whereas discussing healthcare in a much broader details is not about going home. I dont think selling houses has taken up pages and pages of this topic.

I think its all a matter of whats important to you at the time, as I said I dont have a house to sell, so I find pages of that discussion to be boring..but I know that eventually we will get onto another subject, so I just wait in the wings and accept it...

Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK - Part II
btw I find it sad that the main reason why so many people have to think about leaving the US is deemed too 'political' to be discussed in the main over 50s thread. This illness and the state of healthcare affairs in the US is one of the main reasons ladyinlv wanted to leave. But even bringing up the subject is cause for her to be shunted off into a side thread. I don't get it. If you live here and you think the US healthcare system is just fine and dandy, good for you. But surely you can still see why she would feel the way she does and allow her to discuss it, just the way others discuss childhood memories or selling their house. Nuts!
is so stressful that the support being given here is priceless. Who else can really understand the emotions we're all experiencing, but someone who is going through them? As I'm in Canada, the US healthcare doesn't impact me at all, but I can either skip through that part, or read it for information, or, as in Jackie's case, even though I don't know her, empathize and wish her the best. Just my opinion.

Re: OVER 50's & 60's MOVING BACK TO THE UK - Part II
I know I haven't been a member long enough to venture an opinion....but I'm brave....soooo here goes....my impression is that this thread is about much more than just information being exchanged. Moving back to the UK especially over a certain ageis so stressful that the support being given here is priceless. Who else can really understand the emotions we're all experiencing, but someone who is going through them? As I'm in Canada, the US healthcare doesn't impact me at all, but I can either skip through that part, or read it for information, or, as in Jackie's case, even though I don't know her, empathize and wish her the best. Just my opinion.

that is exactly what we all though the thread was about. I didnt mean to cause any problems when I vented about my sitiation the other day, and figured after a few posts the subject would fade out,as with other subjects we get involved with. It evolved into something else unfortunately..so here we are..Jackie

Re: US Healthcare discussion moved from Over 50's & 60's thread
I've unsubscribed from the 50/60 main thread for now. The childish posturing is a bit too much. Makes me crabby, waste of my precious time. Will check in occasionally to see if it has some semblance of adult conversation and interchange of ideas going on.
