[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 745904, member: 18958"] Love or Fear. The thing about this site is that you will find at any given time a dozen people who truly, truly understand what you are going through. They will understand all of the nuances. Even better than we who suffer it, do. The helplessness. The inability to let go. The hope against hope that you are wrong, and that there is a way to make it all better. That indeed, there is a RIGHT thing to do, even though we have explored and tried all of those options a hundred times before. And the people here will understand why you need to do it one more time. Because maybe this time, it will work. And they will understand when you no longer can do it anymore, and why. They will hold your hand as you hold your breath. And still be there when you weep in despair. You will not be lonely here. You will not be alone. All along the people here will worry that you might be alone and urge you to rest, to sleep, to read a good book, to take a walk, to find a friend for a hug as they send you virtual hugs and kisses and real love. What brings tears to my eyes is how hard it is to find this same level of understanding in others close to us, and how much of a gift it is, when we do. [/QUOTE]
