Love, Love, the header photo, the feeling of visiting you here. <br /><br />I've been low key on the blogging side because I went back to school for three years, but now I'm done. yeah!! Graduated May 8, 2012. <br /><br />This story of compassion you shared touched my heart. Yes, it was somewhat a sad story, but I saw the beauty in it.

I can see you going against the rules because you are a very caring person. I can see you dealing with whatever you are given or rolling with the punches as I like to call it. We can be moral support, or show a little kindness. It always make you feel better knowing what you did for the other person. Have a great day and be careful being out in the heat.

It's so sad that your friend lost her battle. That's a difficult prognosis and the Dr. lacked interpersonal skills, IMHO.<br /><br />The young man's situation was sad too. I wonder if he ever repented for the crimes he had committed? You are so right too...the prisoners have more "rights" than the victims these days. :/<br /><br />Take good care and don't work outside in this heat and humidity for long periods & drink tons of water! Ok, that's my RX for you. :)<br /><br />Not sure if it would help but plain white vinegar will kill weeds.
