Ok, here goes.......a newbie posts! HCW, I joined GS and your LEAD forum was the first thing I happened to open, from the beginning. I felt I was reading an unbelievable novel--but believable, because these were actual people...that I knew and knew of. I had to walk away from the computer a number of times, as many have said also, weeping. I want to thank you for truly baring your soul (and those sharp tennis shoes!). The true account was riveting.
Jasmine is a wonderful young lady. She is friends with my son and she has been to my home, (yes in NK, however I've recently moved to NY) on a few occasions. Congrats on the wonderful daughter you've raised.
Oh...and Waterbuffalo, New Knoxville really is a pretty nice place to live--salaries may be lower, but so is the cost of living!!
