Apology to group

Hello Ladies,
  It has come to my attention that I have twice now responded to a post that was old.  In my doing this I have created hurtful and painful memories for some of you.  I want to tell you all how very sorry I am for this.  I usually look to see when a post was dated,but somehow forgot to do this on these posts.  Please accept my deepest apologies. I would also like to thank the two ladies who personally wrote to me to let me know about my goof..I appreciate it ..thank you for taking the time.  I can only imagine how this must have hurt some of you and again I'm very sorry.  Thanks for your understanding..((((hugz)))~~~~Joanne

Thank you all for your understanding and support,it means alot to me.  I also like the idea about asking Medhelp to monitor these old posts,puting them in the archives or something so that this doesn't continue to happen.  (((hugz))~~~Joanne

Seems to me the only good solution to this issue would be to ask medhelp to restrict or automatically close threads after some period of inactivity.

Otherwise, newcomers will continue to tack their question on the end of old threads they find using google (since they don't know better) and well intentioned responders will continue to try to help out the newcomers.

Hey there, kid.....don't be silly!  You don't owe anyone an apology......many of us here have "fuzzy brain syndrome" on occasion.  
I hope you are feeling well.....that's what is important!
Have a great week-end.
Peace.

Any of us could make the same mistake. I'm sure I've done it before too.  Don't be concerned about asking forgiveness...you got it before it even happened IMO!

I have done it before, too.  It is easy to mistake them for new when a new response causes them to resurface.  No one here believes you would ever hurt anyone's feelings on purpose. Love,  Marie

You posted on those posts in good faith with no ill intention.  I, for one, appreciate your apology, but don't feel it it needed.  I think it's really nice of you to be so concerned with the feelings of others.  

I see your profile says you are on Navelbine.  I had a rough time with that one, myself.  In fact, a year ago this week, I was in ICU from what it did to me.  I hope it's not that rough for you.  How long have you been on it?
