12. As a Woman I Commend Your Wife
Mon Oct 15, 2012, 11:31 AM
Oct 2012

on being a Survivor!!!!!!!!But if her Heart says that there is some unfinished business she needs to take care of, then I as a woman support her decision to do as she see fits. If it is her desire to come forward or not as a Woman I respect her personal boundaries. If she desires to come forward I will admire the depth of her courage and the Grand view that she is making whole another child. By doing what her gut tells her. And what counselors, husband and support network advise her is her best option.Good Luck. You have my support!!!!!
