Thank you so much, Cat Lover! I hope you had a peaceful and enjoyable Christmas

Being abandoned was a club I bet none of us wanted to belong to, but it feels good to know I'm not alone.. Thank you for sharing your stories, gamegeek and spondiferous. I wish you all the best as well

The pain is sometimes overwhelming, and feeling detached from others creates more pain.. I suppose that's why it's important to speak up about these things on a forum such as this - to find we're not alone after all
