Allyson, I can't imagine having to carry those memories with me, and I am so sorry you have to. You know we're here for you. You are doing the impossible, and that makes you mighty.
Buffy: So how'd she get away with the bad mojo stuff? Anya: Giles sold it to her. Giles: Well, I didn't know it was her. I mean, how could I? If it's any consolation, I may have overcharged her.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Allyson, you could always write it out and then delete if it feels too private. A minute later, an hour later... Doesn't matter.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I am so sorry you have that memory to carry, Allyson As glad as I am that someone who loved ita delivered the news, as someone who loves you, I also want to punch fate in the 'nads for making that person have to be you.
Lee (and everyone else) speaks truth. Allyson, please please please feel free to vent here or offline. My profile addy is always good, too. But, really, please don't feel like you're being anything but the good-to-the-core human being that you are, because you are. We are here for you, and we would like to help you carry your burden. Very much.

And in a separate post, felicitations on your natal day to the Nicest. I hope that the rest of the year is smooth sailing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Allyson, anything we can do to help, asking us is a gift to us. Anything you can share is a gift to us. Do not feel selfish or wrong for either.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I don't know how to start or what to say that won't violate ita's privacy. Or to even appear to make this all about me, or appear to be an attention whore of some kind. I haven't been here in so long.
I hope, since she hadn't expressed as much where I could hear, that she hadn't given much thought to her privacy under these circumstances. She did, however, care a lot about not burdening people. She wouldn't want you to be overburdened for her sake.
