My stomach turns to think of you right now. Any object that ties me to you, I want to break into a million pieces and melt into oblivion. In solidarity with a child I know whose beauty and innocence your tentacles have tried to crush, I am stepping away.
I have no idea when or if I’ll be back.
Michele

Jeepers. Hope you are ok and if not know that this too shall pass. I kind of despise that saying, but mostly because it is true. I will miss your work. Look after yourself and whoever else needs looking after. I can see from above you have much love out in the ether! Kind regards. Tani.

If you can imagine being cupped in God's loving palms – knowing He won't let you go – you can get through anything with the support and love of family and friends. Let us help you with our prayers.

One has to be soooooo careful with kids and the internet. There needs to be constant supervision, because anything that lends itself to anonymity can be dangerous and damaging.
All the best to you and yours.

lam says
I have only just found you through a recycled denim project and came back to your page using your website rather than a link. What a sad thing to read! I am so sorry that your precious one has had such a traumatic experience, the world can be amazing and awful in equal measures. I hope that they are ok, and that you all can heal. I have to say that your earlier words and work have given me so much pleasure, so thank you. I hope you can remember the joy you bring to others and realise that not all things on the internet are bad. Sending loving thoughts.
catie says

Désolée …. On préfère quand tu as la pêche …Mais je comprends que tu souhaites prendre du recul …Pends soin de toi et de ceux que tu aimes ….Je te suis depuis pratiquement le début, et c'est triste de voir ton enthousiasme envolé… N'oublie pas quand meme que tu t'es fais plein d'amis dans ce monde qui pafois copie aussi le monde réel dans sa méchanceté, hélas …
Bises à toi
