With 30 pages the Molly thread is getting so long I'm having trouble following it. Trying to find answers to posts among too many pages and posts. Maybe GOE can start a new thread to keep us updated on Molly.

Kitty, I don't know. Everything ties in together and I would hate to think that people would have to go back and forth between 2 threads. Why are you having such a hard time finding answers? I really don't understand??? You have been keeping up, and in fact, you have been one of the more consistent posters. Why do you need to go back and back pages and pages??

The C-D "system" has begun doing strange things with threads that go on for three pages or more. No longer do posts appear in logical sequence. You see that something's been added only to find the last message that was there the last time you checked the thread. Then, you have to scroll around a newly set up post list at the top of the page to find where the newest post(s) were placed.
People are more interested in what the latest on Molly is, not what her status was four homeopathic remedies ago - which is what they'd see on the 17th or so page on the thread. There are many persons who are lurking, and taking notes, without making themselves known. Not so many would be arriving at the subject for the first time, now that it's been in the forum for nearly three weeks. My opinion (which is only worth "so much") is that no harm would be done in starting afresh. All that'd need to be done is to include a link to the lengthy thread in the inaugural post, so that anybody interested could go there to get a full background story of the situation.
I think the point raised is valid, but I'll keep on following Molly's progress and sending thoughts + energy her and her family's way no matter where the updates appear.

Agreed. It matters not where it is but rather that Molly gets better!
