Brave woman! Go get 'em! It's YOUR time!
I'm new here but we have a few things in common from what I've read from your story. Looks like you have tonnes of support here and quite rightly so but if ever you need anything, just shout. I'll have your back! Whatever you need okay. Fight for that 11 year old girl! I'm proud of you! I'm sure everyone is! Get those shoulders straight and that chin up - THEY are responsible and THEY need to pay! Nobody made them set the rules that they did, THEY wrote them. They stand by them because guarding their money is more important than lives. They can't change them as to do so would be to open a floodgate of people suing. That's their doing. They are money men. Not holy men. They lie on oath. This is their lesson to learn from, not yours. Now school them! The ARC is there for YOU, lawyers, therapists etc. are there for YOU and we're here for YOU! Use us all as much as you need and when you need. NO guilt! NONE, okay?
Lots of LOVE (((HUGS)))
(sorry for the rant... this topic really riles me into a beast-ess oh, and I watched Erin Brockovich again last night... and I'm still angry LOL)
