I know Wayne doesnt feel* personally *obligated to jump in and greet all the newbees/or the old beez--what he feels comes from his HEART-to help us all at any time and with any info that he can add---which we all know has been *bundles of stuff* that some would never even dream of investigating~~~and that includes me----who was totally ignorant of so many issues regarding Colitis --and the what ifs---ands--could beez---of many things!!!!
He himself that has suffered so much---jumps in with his knowledge to guide all that need a helping hand!!!
Wayne's caring is an incredable feature---as each one of us are when we can jump in and see that we have *helped* someone with the smallest complaint!!!

I know myself and for sure others have their thoughts on Wayne.
How could we not???
To think of a complete stranger to most of us, someone that we have never met in person.
A remarkable man who has taken a task on where most doctors would never take the time or initative to investigate.
He has embarked on a mission of research, to learn himself, then to pass along and to teach people all over the world, so he may help one to fully understand the dynamics of Microscopic Colitis and other diseases, giving them hope that will get well.
He has showed himself to be one of the most unselfish, giving, sincere, compassionate, person, to all that have and will come across his path on this board.
The union on this message board can not be compared to another and we are all family and their is one HERO that has kept us and this board together...
Bless You Wayne
Love To All

"What the heart gives away is never gone ... It is kept in the hearts of others."
Absolutely. I'm amazed that Wayne not only reads and posts responses every evening, but checks and responds to messages throughout his work day. We quickly realized that something was wrong because a few hours passed without a post from him. That's how dedicated he is to this group.

You never know what you can do until you have to do it.
Tex has always taken each and everyone of us under his wing and helped guide through our acceptance of our disease. I know in my heart the God has His reasons but the human side of me like so many on this board are sadden because Tex doesn't just take care of himself, he also has taken care of us.
Never has he ever implied that any question was stupid. To him there were NO STUPID questions and he does his best to answer all of them.
When so many of us were consumed by depression he was right there giving it everything he had to help pull us back to where we needed to be. He NEVER once gave up on any of us.
Let's all face the honest truth...his absence at this time really hurts our hearts.
Love & God's Blessings:

May God and All His Angels, watchover, protect and guide you "One Day At A Time".
It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.
