This IS a very supportive and lovely community. I'm so grateful for the words of the other members here through what's been an incredibly difficult time for me and my family, and would like to continue here as a member.

From Article 19 "Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers."
I know it's tempting to blame the Yanks for "freedom of speech", since they DID impose Maccas and Donald Trump on the world :) but it's a bit more univeral than that.
I know members here are under incredibly trying circumstances, having dealt with some of these myself. I do appreciate the kindness, compassion and understanding from the members. I hope that is taken into consideration when someone has a bit of a bad day. That's all. Kind thoughts to all.
