It has been a LONG time since I posted on your thread(s).
I have prayed for OM forgivness and it does make you feel better over time. I don't want to be filled with hate or thoughts of revenge. I could have been really tough.
My father's side is Irish and my mother is Italian so I have the ingredients for a very relaxed personality (yeah, right).
Do not send anything to OM, his family, etc. Eventually, their shame will come to the surface. It may take along time but it does. Trust me.
Forgivness and paitence are the keys.
Being separated from your family lends WAY too much time for your mind to wander.
Time and prayer are the only things that will help heal.
