Letters not sent

Since several people have mentioned having a hard time deciding whether or
not to send letters that are sad or emotional or deal with difficult
subjects, I wanted to give my opinion.  I welcome all letters, and I think
that the difficult ones are the most important ones.  Where else but here can
you find so many other who can understand?  Yes, many of your letters make me
cry, but that is not a bad thing.  I think that it is very important that we
get these thoughts and feelings out, and judging from the many comments we've
been discussing from others, not many of us have a whole lot of support, or
at least understanding.  I must admit that I am very lucky, my family is very
supportive, and even now, 2 years later, they will discuss it with me, even
though it's the same old stuff.  So I for one welcome these letters, they
serve to remind me how lucky we are now to have a healthy 2 year old, and
sometimes after a day of temper tamtrums I do need reminding!
