BottanicPepper:
Thank you so very much for you kindness and concern for Petra and myself. She is now taking classes in college in the Medical field.
Petra believes that a woman should have 2 trades to support herself. Petra went to college for 8 years to become a Master Chef, but now she is learning medical trades.
She is helping battered and depressed women to defeat their trauma and leave their depression behind just as Petra did. (Petra's aunt is a Professor of Female Therapy and Internal Healing, Psychiatry), I don't think I can even pronounce the term for it over there, and within 4 hours of Petra's arrival at the farm in Switzerland, her aunt knew exactly what the problem was.
Within 2 weeks, Petra was looking to the future and has not looked back since. So now, Petra wants to do what her aunt does. Help women! (The farm-house is part house and part clinic.
Petra's aunt takes in battered women there and nurses them back to health when the shelters are full. It is all a government funded project, and there are grants involved from wealthy people. A bunch of stuff I don't understand.)
It involves education that a person could never learn in a Kingdom Hall!
And me? Well I am still stealing all the cookies out of the cookie jar and stealing all the German Beer from the "good folks" on this board.
I tried to send Simon a case of booze, but they threw me out of the post-office! (I know a Carrier Pidgeon down the street and maybe he can fly Simon over a case or two!)
Thank you so much for being YOU!
