I understand neither Rete's nor Ian's latest post. Did you read this post from LadyM?

ian-mstm

What are you going on about now? She's had 5 posts... all in this thread, and I, at least, have replied to most of 'em. In her most recent post she said she's decided to return to Europe.

Single post linkie thing isn't working right now.

But this is certainly a strange thread.

(Another fine mess from IB!) It was meant to point to post #13b where IMO she states she is leaving both him and the US when she has taken a breath.

Rete

Was referring to another post by LadyM.

My reaction is not clinical as it should have been but personal. I have a dear friend whose daughter is involved with a man who is the father of her third child. He is currently in prison for the second time for beating her senseless. The last time he broken her jaw, two ribs and damaged her eyesight. He is due to be released next week and she is going back to him. Both my friend and I know that the next time the call will be that she is dead at his hands. There is little a mother can do for a daughter who is 37 years old and willing to place herself in mortal danger. All she can do is be there if needed, pray, pray and pray some more.
