58. Wow. TYJ, I am dumbstruck. Any one of us could be your sister...

And I hope you understand that I do not mean to diminish or appropriate her suffering and death in any way.

What I mean is this: It's not all that hard in this society to fall on hard times, then harder times, then desperate times. Only a paycheck or two stands between most of us and homelessness, for starters. We are also cursed to live in a country that, for the most part, doesn't really give a damn for those less fortunate. Well, we're trying to change that.

All peace to you, and may your memories of your sister include many happy ones. :hug:
