I wish there was some way we could save her posts and her threads on 2ps for her kids' sake. That message board was like a time capsule, you know? I sometimes envisioned my daughter finding and reading posts that I had made over the years and learning about a different side of me that she never knew. I wish Beth's kids could have that to remember her by. How could we do that? I know that the posts only go back a year or so but maybe we could save the ones that are still there. And I wonder if old ones could be found by the Wayback Machine? That's a wonderful idea! I wonder if anyone knows how to do that? seriously, that is a great idea. I can see the forum again, just cant post... hmmm

Beth was literally the 2nd thought that popped into my head when I discovered the board was gone (the 1st was a torrent of swear words). I am so glad you started this thread. To keep her posts, you could do what I've been doing w/ various photography threads. Open the thread, go up to File, Print, and then I have a little box on he bottom left that says PDF. I click that, select Save as a PDF, and save to my 2 Peas folder. It will save all the posts and pictures on the page. If it's a multiple page thread, you'll have to make a new PDF for each page.

Is anyone in touch with her husband? It would be great to know that he is able to let Beth know that we are all thinking of her and how blessed we feel to have had the opportunity to know her. She has enriched a lot of lives on this board.

Thank you for the updates. She was the first person I thought of when the site went down.

Ditto on first thoughts going to Beth. I have been thinking of her and her family ever since the update at 2Peas. I wish her peace and comfort as she finishes her race.

Beth was one of the first peas I thought about when I saw that the board was closing. I will continue praying for her and her family.

It feels like we've brought Beth here with us. I like knowing that she's still in everyone's prayers and hearts.

I feel like I've missed out on someone special. I don't know Beth from 2Peas but she obviously is someone who touched a lot of lives. If anyone feels comfortable enough could you give me a brief summary of Beth's time @ 2Peas? I'd really like to get to "know" her from her friends.

I haven't been around much over the last several years and I'm so sorry to hear that Beth isn't doing well. Thoughts and prayers for her and her family.

Like so many others, Beth was immediately in my thoughts when I realized the boards were closed. I'm so glad we haven't "lost" the connection to her.

If anyone feels comfortable enough could you give me a brief summary of Beth's time @ 2Peas? I'd really like to get to "know" her from her friends. Beth is really special, I'm sorry you didn't get to know her, she could brighten your day no matter how you were feeling. She is a long time Pea, a true 'NSBR ain't for sissies' Pea. She speaks her mind and has the best attitude of anyone I have ever run into. I think she was DXed with cancer 5 or 6 years ago, but it has progressed to the stage where there is no more that can be done. All the way through it she has always had a positive attitude. I was really hoping she'd beat this beast....if anyone deserved to, Beth did. She is currently at home, with her family, and hospice care.

Is anyone in touch with her husband? It would be great to know that he is able to let Beth know that we are all thinking of her and how blessed we feel to have had the opportunity to know her. She has enriched a lot of lives on this board. Quite a few of us are in touch with her husband, which is how we get our updates. She's very aware of how many people are thinking of her and how we love and miss her spunky attitude around the boards and Facebook. There really hasn't been many updates since the last one. I'm sure she has her good days and bad days. He did say that she does occasionally get on Facebook and sees all the candle avatars and well wishes, but just doesn't post and it's not often. However, she knows we're out here thinking of her and sending positive thoughts and prayers.

Beth has been one of my favorite people from the get-go. I love her no-nonsense attitude. She rocks. I wish I had better words to say, but she is in my thoughts.

Still thinking about Beth and her family. Her spunk and her fight are well known. I'm glad we're able to keep in touch.

Although I did not post often on the old board, I know who Beth is.
My heart goes out to her and her family during this difficult time.

It's so touching to see how many of us first thought Beth when 2Peas locked its forums. A great reminder of how we are a 'family' no matter where we end up. Continued prayers and positive thoughts to Beth, her family and all who love her.

Thinking of Beth & her family. Thank you for the updates.
Beautifully put earlier in the thread that we "brought" her here with us.

Thanks for sharing the updates. I am so sad for her family. From her posts, she was such an example of grace and beauty at an incredibly trying time.

Thanks for starting this thread. I'm another one who was saddened when 2 Peas message boards shut down. I was thinking that we weren't going to be getting any more updates on Beth.
I'm sorry to hear that she's needed to have her pain medications increased. My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family. She has been such a positive presence on the Peas.
((HUGS)) to you Beth and your family, if you're reading this thread.

I sent her husband the link to all the thoughts and prayers that people posted on the update thread I posted. He is very grateful, and said he was sorry that they were closing 2peas since Beth enjoyed it so much.
