I was listening to that too DocM. It's devastating.

I really struggle with that story. It's literally my worst nightmare.

Linds I'm so sorry. You are not to blame. We can't choose the paths our children walk along (fwiw I don't think they can most of the time either). All we can do is walk beside them. You are there every day doing that. Which is so exhausting. (())) Sending so many hugs.

Oh Linds if you’re a failure then we all are. I hope the class wasn’t too arduous.

I'm not sure whether to try to find the Jeremy Vine thing or not. I know daughter is active on IG. I won't see her for another 10 days but I might find a few minutes to talk to her about it (the Mollie case) when I do.
