Wow, I haven't even finished setting up my profile yet but while browsing through intro's yours struck a chord in me. I know quite a few women in the US in different states who work so, so diligently and have been arrested for trying to help other women and children out of terrible circumstances.

As a single mother all my life, until recently (he's an adult now), I can't imagine some of the things that you and others have gone through, but my son and I had more than our share of crazy bad luck (psycho ex tried to kill me, he had candida in his brain with a 40% mortality rate for several years and that is only because we caught it or he'd be gone and honestly I most likely would be too, and much more).

He's saved my life more than once, literally. I had seizures for no reason (I suspect now it had something to do with our new exterminator switching chemicals) but he came home from school and found me during the throes of my first one. He honestly thought I was dying, the poort thing.

So we've saved each other over our lives and there is no one in this world I'm closer to.

I very much admire what you and others do for family's so selflessly. I am a very localized activist, but I strive someday to be able to truly do something on a larger scale like this.

For now though, it restores some of my faith in humanity to know that there others out there doing all they can and for the time being, changing one life at a time when I can even if it's just for a day is fulfillment enough....so far!

Sorry for the novel. I'm going to go get on my profile and everything. :) It's taken me awhile to finally get approved and situated. Take care and thank you for brightening my afternoon!
