I am so grateful for your courage and your desire to share your wisdom with us. You must know how valuable it is for others to hear of your journey. It's all about that "dropping of the keys", and I have to think that you benefit, as much as we do, from your sharing. love you, too. Jess Phyllis,

Annie, if you choose to leave it will be very hard. And only you can know if it is the right thing or not ( to leave or stay ). And even for you it will be a very confusing and difficult decision. Just know that we all care about you. And no matter what you decide -- or how long it takes-we are thinking of you and loving you from afar. Thank you Jesse for bringing us all together. You are wonderful. We love and appreciate you so much. Annie, try to get a little money together -- of your very own -- just in case. Be prepared. We are with you. We truly care. I left my husband 11 months ago. And I am 68 years old. I have shed many tears -- but many of them have been from relief. I wouldn't go back for anything. Even though it has been hard. Never again will I let a man abuse and control me. I love all of you. I mean it. Dear Annie and to all of our sisters,

I hope that is obvious to you. I simply write about the choices that I make. A lot of times I benefit, but the jury is still out on some of those choices. Know that I'm still holding the net in one hand (whether you need it or not), and an excellent cup of coffee in the other. Love you. Dearest Annie,

I've been thinking about this last post, and doing some strong thinking about it. I have told myself, that after the last really bad fight with husband, that if I ever felt that way again, where you can't breathe, can't feel, can't cry anymore, that I would leave, that would be it. How many fights do there have to be, before I wake up? There will be another, will I have another excuse or will I finally jump for my life boat? Thank you for everything you do...

'Collector of Sisters'. That's good. Never been much interested in titles. 'Mom' and 'Collector of Sisters' - two very honorable titles. Pat,

Or, to put it in other words, the fact that God lives in you means you are only limited by the body He/She inhabits. I wanted to share that with you, but at 4:15 a.m. you discovered it for yourself. You have always been a collector of sisters. Phyllis and Donna and others are a part of your ever growing sisterhood. They sound like people I'd love to know.

It feels more like I'm standing around waiting for the 2x4 to hit me in the head. When it finally does, I often feel like I'm the last one to get the memo. Phyllis,

Are you sure that you aren't a professional psychologist, psychiatrist, etc? You sure do give us a lot to think about. On the roof -- that's brilliant. You sure do have a lot of insight into life.
