I am not about to resort to the name calling or accusations that are in your response. No one even knows what transpired, nor can they begin to make assumptions as to my feelings. I am not going to even attempt to explain because I will not be a part of bringing disruption to this board. You all know how long I have wanted to leave because I have felt that so much controversy has revolved around me. I will not be a part of that. This group deserves better. They don't need to hear the wild, hurtful statements which really have no basis. I don't want people to beg me to stay. What I want is for this list to continue providing love and support to all of its participants, something that is lacking right at this time.
My love to each and everyone of you.
