It's hard to imagine that it's been almost a year since the Jerry Sandusky story broke. What a whirlwind it has been for so many of us bringing up long buried memories, triggers, turmoil, upheaval in our personal, professional and social lives. Causing some to push too hard and pay a high price, causing some to recoil from memories too great..But it hasn't all been bad, it has seen the start-up of a support group here at Daily Kos that has grown into a place that serves so many who know too well the ramifications of being abused.
And, following a highly emotional week with the Sandusky trial finally reaching its sentencing phase, I thought tonight might be a good night to bring back the hearth...
There's plenty of room, bring out a couch, chair or blanket. It's been a really rough year, but tonight is about community. Just checking in to see how everyone is doing. If you've got a few minutes, stop by.
Hope to see you -
