| I hope you write about the little boy in Portland. It sounds like his step mother had something to do with it, but what a sad story. Would love to hear your take on everything.

Since we are on the suject, I have a dear friend who is aware of some of the trauma in my life. She sent me a little book, and I would like to share this with all of you. "Dance While You Can" Author: Lance Wubbels. After reading this book this morning, I went to Safeway, and I think I was able to Save a lady from a premature death. I spent over an hour just listening to her. I thought I had it bad. Nope, I found out I am a pretty lucky woman, and I am sure glad I was there when she needed me. Please try to read this little book. The first 2 pages make you think and feel good about yourself. Ann, are you familiar with this book? If so what are your thoughts? I hope this helps a few of us. My friend called tonight and said she could tell such a big difference in my voice. Some of my bounce is coming back.

For Debra Lynn and others struggling about their feelings concerning their mothers. Some women were not meant to be mothers, and are completely incapable of empathy with their children. It is very difficult when they age, and you feel responsible. Do what you can to be kind--knowing their time is short and they will have to answer for their choices. I don't want any of you to feel guilt. Sometimes, I believe the daughters are far more evolved in the pattern of lives than the mothers. Forgive them if you can. But never, ever, feel guilty or obliged to help them more than being sure they are being treated well. It is sad not to love your mother, but, realistically, some mothers have not earned their children's love. As people age, they become more entrenched in who they were. Mean people get meaner. Kind people grow kinder. Forgive as much as you can, and believe you deserve a peaceful and tranquil life, and don't allow them to hurt you any more. Listen to your counselors. If you cannot help them more than what you are doing now, take care of yourself--as you deserve happiness in your own life and have much more to give to other people. And pray that you can do this. Ann

| DEBRA LYNN: I can only echo what others have said and advise that you need to take care of yourself. I'm all for honoring parents, but I think you need to approach that from a different angle: honor your mother by cherishing the life that she gave you. I wish you the best.

| DEBRA LYNN - I guess we all have to make our own choices, but I can tell you what I have done with people that have been in my life that are evil, narcisstic, sociopathic, or just plain toxic - I drop them like a rock. That is the only way I could salvage my life and not be one of their victims. Before I met my husband I dated and lived with a man who was a true sociopath - and not a nice one at that. After I broke up with him I would have nightmares he was after me and I also thought he would do something like plant drugs in my vehicle or something else to get at me. Your mother is in a facility where she is taken care of - she is absolutely fine (consider that honoring her, I think God would). If anyone tries to destroy your soul - you don't need them (blood related or not). Bless you, sweetheart. I hope you change all of your contact info and stay the heck away from her at all costs.

| I enjoyed your book The Stranger Beside Me, the updated 20th anniversary version. I am starting another of your books--the first 3 book volume of true crime stories. I admire your writing and hope to read more of your books, as time goes by. Thanks!

Hello Ann & ARF's, Well, I am still retired, about to get used to it, I guess. Trying to, anyway. We've gotten in a lot of quality, porch sitting time, watching the humming-birds flitter about and eat and eat. Canyon: I guess I won't be coming that way. But, you should have been here to eat with us yest. We had barbq pork chops, mashed potatoes, stir fried, okra, squash and onions, and some fried apple pies. We are getting to face the same problems that Micheal Douglas is. That is with the chemo and radiation. My honey had his surgery on the 22nd of July. He is doing good, still sore. I appreciate all the prayers and best wishes, I have just not talked a lot about this. Thought maybe it would go away. Of course, I didn't really thing that. But, one can always hope. Boston Bev, please put his name in the God jar. Take care all. Kristen, Linda Bug, and all of you arf's, are being missed on here. Love and best wishes to all, Carolyn
