It is pathetic when people don't try to feel someone else's pain -- you never know when it's going to happen to you, so for Pete's sake, BE KIND, you know ???

If that message IS just spam, well, IT happens! But this doesn't quite fit the bill for "regular-spam".<BR/><BR/>I may not be too well-versed in the definition of "compassion", but I do know how to "watch my ass"!<BR/><BR/>And, there are always going to be those who support idiots in power, regardless of what shows! I wonder: Was this person one of the "unaffected" types who don't, or maybe never, had a loved one in the military, past or present, and/or suffered the same type of loss as yourself? Chances are, the answer is NO....BRUNOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08153007543374555989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258397.post-91988566381469301762007-04-11T07:47:00.000-04:002007-04-11T07:47:00.000-04:00Actually, anonymous is spam, and here is the best ...Actually, anonymous is spam, and here is the best translation I could get:<BR/><BR/>Hello, I times again ne good address found.

What a smug, self-satisfied cow! The only consolation is, she's bound to open her jaws and let her belly rumble once too often, to the wrong person, and wind up floored (here's hoping, eh?).<BR/><BR/>Your post made me cry. You have dignity, love and compassion, and my heart just breaks for your loss.<BR/>No mother should have to deal with that. You paint a vivid picture of both of your sons, one is, and the other was, a fine example of your loving up-bringing.<BR/><BR/>And as for EJ, keep clucking gal, and get him back to that hospital, just for peace of mind, if nothing else!Shrink Wrapped Screamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12760625376352251212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258397.post-90385710385407083492007-04-11T03:41:00.000-04:002007-04-11T03:41:00.000-04:00Right again, Deb, on all accounts...I agree with D...Right again, Deb, on all accounts...I agree with Dawn..that woman is a BITCH!!!<BR/><BR/>Yes, I agree with the others...hope your other son goes to the hospital again.<BR/><BR/>Take Care.Nohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09929187212992920070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258397.post-12439298966916179992007-04-10T22:56:00.000-04:002007-04-10T22:56:00.000-04:00I don't think you overreacted at all.

First off you are a mom. You are allowed to worry incessantly about your son. <BR/><BR/>Secondly, your friend has her right to have her opinions, but she should have been more compassionate about the loss of your son. She doesn't have to agree, but could have just been silent about her opinions.Bardouble29https://www.blogger.com/profile/02792662853238196699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258397.post-1320387554610695332007-04-10T10:15:00.000-04:002007-04-10T10:15:00.000-04:00I don't think you over reacted at all.

That was rude and thoughtless of her. <BR/>My youngest son told another parent once that he was worried that his brother would be killed in the war. The parent voted for Bush and we often have light hearted arguments about politics. He told me son that that is what Michael signed up for. He knew what he was doing. When Johnny told me about it I was so pissed off. That is what you say to a young boy expressing concern for his brother!? Even thinking about this has my blood boiling again. It changed my not so high opinion of that person completely. Freaking, dumbass, idiot.<BR/><BR/>I hope EJ will go to the hospital again. It worries me. Better to be safe.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09454344516994289843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258397.post-56775321149800131692007-04-10T10:03:00.000-04:002007-04-10T10:03:00.000-04:00First off what is that comment spam. Second of all...First off what is that comment spam. Second of all your so called friend is a bitch. Whether she was right or wrong really doesn't matter a friend would have more respect and compassion. My friend who lost her son 3 years ago would have knocked me out for a similar statement, not that I would ever say anything like that to her. Your right where is all the compassion in the world. People don't think before they speak. Oh and Deb your a mother your allowed to obsess over an injury your son had I would do know less. It's usually my husband that reigns me in.
