Hello T2, FY and PON. The LBS previously known as LindaM here.
How interesting in a pathetically sad sort of way, that all of your Ws were exposed to SA. When I was in law school, I worked as a SA nurse for our DA. It was simultaneously the best and worst thing I've ever done. I only dealt with the immediate emotional and physical trauma, not the aftermath, of course. But I noticed that the betrayal by someone loved and trusted seemed to cause severe emotional devastation. Abuse by a stranger or casual acquaintance caused fear and aggitation, but not that deeply broken spirit. I don't know what happened afterwards though.
Raine, please 'splain: "Hmm, where I come from growling is a good thing...a very good thing."
Linda
