I’m closing up last year’s business today. I just went to Prevent Child Abuse America and donated the $35 that had been raised this year through Amazon links and CafePress referrals Thank you to everyone for making that possible.

Sandy, in the forums, asked if anyone knew of any support groups for wives of male survivors. While that seems like it’s probably a good idea for a group, I’m not familiar with any groups with that specific agenda. I offered some suggestions for where she might begin to look for that, but if anyone…
Pin Three years ago, I wrote about how much I appreciated being able to use Facebook to communicate with my far-flung cousins and other family members on the day that my grandmother passed away.
