One more thing and then I'm done with this topic and I hope we've all learned something. I know I have and that's what makes life so great, there's always more to learn.

I didn't jump in to to defend Brit so much as to call foul on what I saw was harsh and judgmental based on one post. Of course I know Brit and that's why I was reading her thread but I think we all deserve a minimum level of respect, especially here where we are sharing such painful, personal stories.

I do commend you, Barb for continuing to come back to the boards. It must take a lot of time and patience from what sounds like an already very busy life. It is good to be able to support others in staying on their path, and learning patience when they step off into the weeds. But it is their path.

Thanks for the explication of your history, often with the real oldtimers we don't get that. It helps to have a better understanding of the whole person.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.
