I am so disgusted. Anyone who would say such a thing does not have
children, does not have a heart, and does not have a clue. To kick
someone when they are down?
I've had a couple people say stupid things to me since this happened
but this surpasses even the lady who thought she was Shane's mother &
her comments. I don't think she could help herself - it's what she
believed. Other people just don't seem to know what to do or say. I can
understand that. There are no words sufficient.
The person who said this to Seth? I can't explain. Some people are just
born @$$80135, I guess. (Sorry about the language, Seth. I just can't
come up with a better word than that.)
Unfortunate situation? Please - there is nothing worse than this.
NOTHING. I promise you that. May you never walk in our shoes. And if
you do, may others in your life show a tiny bit of understanding &
compassion for your "unfortunate situation". May you never come across
someone as unfeeling & cruel as yourself.
