This is very true Dizzy, I wrote this 18 years ago when our Josh died:
.................

I look into my Grand Daughters eyes & see puzzlement as to where her brother has gone
I look into my Daughters eyes & see her pain added to by that look into her daughters eyes
I dare not look into my own Mothers eyes
........................

Does it really matter who said what?
Does it really matter who reported a thread?
Will it change the past?

Everyone can log off & forget the happenings on any website.
Many of us have experienced times in our lives that are etched on our brains, some, like loved members of this site are going through such a time.

As most of mine were ag labs in small communities, there was probably a lot of gossip backbiting and other nonsense spoken back then too.

We have just taken it to a new level.........we are luckier in that we can log off and go back to reality, they were stuck in theirs 24/7 :-(
