Post by: scarface on April 06, 2006, 06:16:45 AM
hi everyone
I'm a thalassaemia patient from melbourne, Australia. I'm 30 years old, my name is john and i have joined this site to meet all you lovely people!  To meet fellow brothers and sisters in da wood from down under!  As I am fighting back these kangaroos in my back yard, I am quickly writing these messages.  Oh my god! They're going to eat us!  Have a look at this yellow bellied black snake under the rock! 
Meanwhile... what was I saying?
I am a fanatical Scarface fan. I enjoy going out with my friends and having good times and meeting new people.
Love
John.

Good to have you here! You will find a lot of people from different places of the globe, here in this site!

You can read everyone's experiences with Thal. which will teach you a lot about the disease.

Please feel free to submit your adventures while telling us how you are dealing with Thal. as I am quite interested how you manage all this activity with Thal.

Hope that you've caught that marsupial  ;D

All jokes aside. 

Few months ago I had a red male kangaroo who was on heat chasing me in our back yard...

Welcome John!  I hope you find this site as useful as I do!

Actually... should introduce myself to the rest of you instead of sneaking around so much...  :sneek

My name is Sally and I am a community educator working for the Thalassaemia Society of Victoria. I started visiting this site to gain a patient's perspective of thalassaemia, and found all the information invaluable!  Nearly every person who makes an enquiry about thalassaemia we refer to look at this site - especially people who have just found out they are thal minor or major.  Now I feel like I know you all as you are all so open and sharing!  So no more  :sneek !!  I will be open too!

Thanks to Andy and Danielle for running such an AMAZING site.   :five :five

Cheerio!

Gday Mite,

All this kangaroo stuff prompted me to take a look at Pubmed. Two abstracts (there are plenty more) correlate to the Erythrocyte Morphology thread.

It's a strange world that we live in! You are getting ready for winter while we are getting ready for summer! and yet we have the same date on the calender(mostly).

I wonder if there is such a place on earth where it stays moderate throughout the year! Somewhere in between! Somewhere like "Maldives!"

I'd love to come, but can't  :( :wah

Danielle............ Your laughing at the comment that Scarface wrote, well I was crying........ :rotfl :wah. After Scarface told me what he wrote here on the forum I felt like killing him but one day I might just do that.

In all honesty his a great fun loving guy and blessed to have him as a dear friend,  but Scarface honey our love affair must be kept a secret.
