Hugs Mary Alice,
Things are working themselves out. People got hurt and that takes time. I think it will be ok and maybe it will make the group stronger, who knows?
I wasnt to say that your post was beautifully written and very valid. You are special :O)

Want to add, I NEVER said I was leaving....said taking a break, didn't know how long. Since I wasn't sure how long I wanted to let people know. Actually wanting to come back today but it seems so many got the impression I said I was leaving that I feel a little silly just waltzin back in a day later. Just needed a break.
Your a good girl Mary Alice!!
