[QUOTE="witzend, post: 678978, member: 99"] As I recall, she cut off not just the one who tried so hard to steer her away from this, she cut off just about [I]anyone[/I] who did anything beyond listening. Listening was all a lot of us could do. It wasn't something that any of us could [I]really [/I]understand in the way that she did, and she knew it. Of course we have had many traumas, some more than others. But when you realize that your trauma is almost unique, and that the only close person you had in your life is gone, I don't know how to help someone get past that because I would have given up too. There was so much ugly talk over that period of time (not from us but in general, [I]everywhere[/I]) about kids being killed by police.I'm sure that people who make grand statements about it never think that one of those kid's mother might see that. I'm sure that there are others in the world who are cruel and don't care. I don't know how she stood it. [/QUOTE]
