She will never forget your kindness as no doubt you will never forget her. I have recently been involved in a very similar incident and can't remember the last time I cried so hard as when I left her in the care of others and was finally able to let my feelings out.

It was below freezing. I was a Supervisor over a group of newspaper carriers. I was riding with one of my guys. She was sitting on the hood of a vehicle in a used car lot ... clutching her knees to her chest ... wearing only a tee-shirt and panties. She stared out into nowhere ... couldn't speak. I picked her up, wrapped her in my Levi Jacket, and carried her to the van. She curled herself into my arms all the way to the warehouse, where I picked her up again ... still mute and unaware of her surroundings (I learned later that she had been drugged in a club, and repeatedly assaulted) and I drove her (as she leaned into me in the front seat of my old VW) to the hospital. It was 1988. I will never forget. am so very appreciative (from my own personal place of understanding) of who you, My Darling Friend, are ... and how you conducted your loving Self.<BR/><BR/>I love You.John-Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12301981965656607401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6080711769520028246.post-33048872803452648032008-07-27T17:27:00.000-04:002008-07-27T17:27:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.John-Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12301981965656607401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6080711769520028246.post-74355505816151427782008-07-26T16:54:00.000-04:002008-07-26T16:54:00.000-04:00Wow.
