As I was reading today's posts on this topic, I went from tears and sadness for poor Hope to shock and horror and anger of what poor Liz had to go through as a child. My heart goes out to you, Liz.
Hope, FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT, girl. Dogresq, I am so glad that Hope had found her way into your home and is able to feel love. I know it means a lot to her. Thank you for giving her that. I will be praying for her.
