Featured Posts from Yesterday

Lizzie, wow that's a powerful statement and your post yesterday was as well. I think your ideas and point of view are extremely valid here, you have so much experience and skill to contribute. I'm quite blown away at your background, I've worked in community service but never at the level you have. I supported many people with cancer and other illnesses and I know sometimes I just needed to sit back and listen to what they had to say, when you're supporting someone with a serious illness sometimes the best thing you can do is actively listen to their difficulties and not judge. Often you're the only outlet they really have as they're struggling to protect their family and friends from the worst of the nightmare they're dealing with internally.

I know there are a lot of women here who are in the same boat you're in and they will understand where you're coming from even better than I do.

I was also sorry to see the thread yesterday taken down but I do hope it opens a conversation that could be helpful. I'm new here but this seems like an awesome community. Awesome communities STAY awesome by  having open discussions, feedback and support. Reprimanding honest opinions will make it hard for people to discuss the hard issues, and that would be sad.
