[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 622016, member: 17542"] I know Echo. I almost didn't post it because it is very close to the bone for all of us. That is the strength of this site---the clear-eyed honesty and willingness to look at things, the really hard and horrible things. I would suggest that people don't read the article unless they are up to it at that point. Today, here, it is a beautiful sunny day. I am feeling stronger today. I was able to read it. I now am going to put that and this aside and get to work. I don't want to turn away, myself, from the hardest things. I want to be able to take them in, see what I can learn from it, feel compassion and kindness toward others (like you said and I believe: Only kindness matters.). Some days I can't do it. Today I thought I could. Hugs and prayers and the best of today's sunshine I wish for you today. I told SO last night, I really want to go on a vacation with these people. Is that too pie in the sky? I wouldn't want to ruin what we have going here at all. Anyway, time will tell. Thanks, Echo, for responding to this and stating your feelings about it. I know it is hard. PS. I want to draw no "real" conclusions about Nancy. I imagine her doing the very best she could do with what she knew, felt and believed. What more can a person do, than that? [/QUOTE]
