Everyone I have seen these past two weeks is in crisis...isn't that only supposed to happen on holidays and full moons?  Look around...people around you are experiencing life's difficultiies and masking them just as much as you may be.  If you met her, or anyone in our group for that matter, you would have no idea how much pain they are in at times or grew up with.  If this is a description of you REACH OUT and find an outlet.  J is suffering because of her loved one's departure, we are trying to support her through this crisis...she has had so many losses, a parent, a sibling, a spouse, children of her own,  children she has raised, peace of mind, freedom to not be the relied upon person...when is it her turn to just live?  As JJ said M has been left with the issues of her children that he created either biologically or psychologically.  WE want to hear from J and M  PLEASE!!!!!!!  Her birthday is coming up soon, how will we honor her?  Group is about to take on a new idenity hopefully with the return of former members and the addition of new ones...We still miss her   S
