can we be supportive of elaine?
I am saying this with the utmost humility, I KNOW I am an idiot LOTSA the time.
I have been reading Elaines threads from the start.
I don't know that its helpful to bash her T too much anymore.
Personally, I take from it that there's a great deal of caring, and yes outrage. That people care enough bout El that they hate her T for hurting her. I think thats one of the special things of babble, how we want to watch out for each other.
Its hard to see a fellow babbler being hurt.
But at the same time, I would like to make my fellow babbler comfortable enough to post and receive support.
I'm not sure what we can do best, to be supportive of El?
Maybe she has some ideas herself of what we might best say that would be helpful to her.
For all I know maybe it IS helpful to bash her T. I dunno. El will have to tell us.
Cuz i think thats what we all want. We want to help SOMEhow, and its hard to with just words.
So El if your reading this, know that I (and I beleive I could say in honesty WE) care. You are one of us. And I hope you can be OK. And mebbe you can help us, by maybe telling us how best you feel,that we can be supportive to you. Cuz you are one of us.
So in NO way am I trying to make ANYONE feel bad. I am delighted that so many are supportive of El.
I am just curious as to how we might be best supportive of her.
I REALLY hope I am not speaking out of turn here......
I feel all who have posted did so with kindness and caring,
((((Babblers))), but its hard sometimes isn't it?
I want to be supportive of you El,cuz I care, but I'm not sure how?
Mebbe like Job in the bible, just listen and commiserate? I don't know, and I want to help you carry your burden somehow...
((((Elaine)))
Take care,
Muffled
