Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa......THIS post is way out of line!
Scooter, I'm sure whoever you think it is that you are defending appreciates the fact that there are people wanting to defend him, but I gotta tell you that you are WAY off the mark on this post.
FIRST - Linda is not posting this to the man that she "MET" early on in her situation. I believe you have confused the issue there. And chances are that if you think you know who it is that she met, you are likely wrong.
SECOND - I don't know about anyone else, but Linda has walked beside me every step of the way in my own situation. She has comforted when comfort was called for, she has chided me, advised me, encouraged me, all the things that I've needed from time to time to get through whatever I or Anne had done to stir things up. She is a treasured friend to me. Your suggestion that her posts are not of value is not only WRONG big time, but it is also incredibly MEAN and CRUEL, seemingly just to be MEAN and CRUEL.
I can't imagine anyone on this board ever telling another that they understand how a spouse could have left them. It's just mean, heartless, and nasty.
Think what you will about this thread or Linda's motivation for starting it. She is an awesome woman who has seen her MLC husband finally come home after two years, and yet still finds time to make it on this board and reach out to those in need.
Sorry Scooter, your post was mean, uninformed, and if anything should be removed, I think your post is the best candidate.
LINDA, Sorry for that. Hope you will ignore everything Scooter said and continue on with your work.
Blessings,
Bill
