It is and has been "sad", as the entire fiasco not only has made so many suffer, with long term emotional effects long past the itiital trauma, but it also has made it obvious to me how warped our entire society really is, and how much seems totally beyond control of logical responses, and a complete rehabilitation. We all carry our personal issues, much that few if any ever see, though may sense. So, know it is sadness about which I cringe, and sadness that the human species can be so warped and pathological, using other people's trauma for personal gain in the guise of real caring. As noted many times, I can only pray for you and others in the suvivor/victim pool find some closure, even knowing it will never be complete, at least not in our current lives.
