Hey, um. I just want to say. Your comments? In this whole article/thread. They're really astounding and I just really appreciate you being such a bright light in a heartening story born of such abject sadness. So, you know. Keep on, keepin' on.

Ohhh I just talked about this in another comment. I won't cut and paste for you though (even though I am really really tired!) Keep in mind that she was a teenager at the time. One who lived in what I'm guessing is a pretty strict or even repressive household. I'm betting access to transportation probably was a major…
