Something horrible has happened to Goosey

Mark

Has anyone heard from Goosey?

Is she OK?

I haven't had an e-mail or a pm from her since Nov 4. I can only think of 2 likely explanations. She's lost her internet access; if that were the case then surely she could get to the local library though and send me an e-mail to let me know? Or she's ended up in hospital.

So the evidence would suggest she's in hospital for some reason.

Has anyone got any idea what's happened to her?

I need my Goosey! Her friendship is the only thing I've got to keep my mental health reasonably good.

    I have to say I agree that this is a bit inflammatory..Confused

  • No disrespect to you, but as you are merely speculating, I feel the title of your post is misleading and could trigger unnecessary panic in other members. It did with me when I read it.

    I too am feeling concerned about Goosey, but as I seem to remember her saying something on the forums about moving to a farm, it's possible that her time and attention have been focused on that, and that it has left her feeling too exhausted to be active here.

    When Goosey is ready, I am sure she will return, as she has done previously.

  • Whilst you are naturally concerned, we all are, try not to assume the worst. I do think your thread title is unnecessarily alarmist and could result in unnecessary distress to forum members. If you can change it to something less alarmist then please do.

    I know she mentioned about receiving some support directly from NAS and I would hope that they are in touch. Perhaps you could contact the community manager with your concerns.

    if you're reading this please come back soon. We miss you Duck

    Yes, Goosey has taken a couple of breaks from the forum before. Let's hope she soon returns, she is missed.

  • tbh if I made a friend I felt that close to on here I think I'd want to swap phone numbers. When she pops up again maybe you should sugest that.

  • I would strongly suggest that you don't torture yourself with what-ifs/worst case scenarios because you're only going to feel worse.

    I do understand how you're feeling, I've been in the same situation many times and struggled to deal with it, and you're doing the right thing in terms of expressing that.

    However, I think it's largely out of your hands. From my interactions with Goosey I know she'll have periods where she needs to step away for her own health, and I imagine that's the case here.
