I am heartbroken for wi_fighter and her kids AND the dog.

I feel bad that wi feels so bad.

I am stunned. It's like when you get the news that someone has died. That's how I feel. Like one minute your sad and the next you're in shock.

It brings up past issues of being taken advantage of after trusting someone.

It brings up all the fear of "guilt by association" like when my brothers would get arrested and go to jail, I hated telling people my last name because they assumed I was just like them.

Parents didn't want me to play with their kids because my brothers did something bad.

That's the kind of stuff it's bringing up.

I know it's all my own stuff. I do know that.
