I simply sat at a table in the room. At first I sat next to a quiet redhead and a very soft-spoken older lady who told us her name in such a soft voice that I thought it hurt for her to speak. Eventually the redhead told me her story. It was and still is a hard one. She feels alone, but is not without hope.<br /><br />Later, just by being available, another lady, seven months pregnant sat down and told her story. She is a proud survivor.<br /><br />You "showed up" on call, and I "showed up" in the parish hall.
