Then, searched for ones that we closer to what I was looking for. Then, I found your blog. I am sorry about Linus. Don't listen to those negative comments. My daughter has a neurological disease called Spastic Paraparesis. I decided to join sites like Bloglovin to get the word out about her disease. I love the t-shirts that your boys are in. So cute! Go Team Linus! I wish I had the extra money to donate. I am disable & we have limited income, but I do have a blog & twitter. Say the word & I can have you as a guest blogger once I get more readers!! I would love for you to do an educational blog on your son's condition. Let me know.Always Readinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09575864273311735978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3482200508819139560.post-35450639135358833062012-07-11T02:30:17.193-05:002012-07-11T02:30:17.193-05:00Yuck. :( Please don't pay any attention to p...Yuck. :( Please don't pay any attention to people like that; if they had read your "Team Linus" updates they would have understood why you were away for a while.

I'm sorry you had a mean commenter. I had so many truly hateful ones when we were trying to adopt. It's so funny how we give the mean comments power and they stick with us for years, whereas we tend to gloss over the nice ones. The online community can be such a source of support and also such source of bullying. I too decided that my blog was useful to others and that was its purpose and I didn;t take it down. But that whole time left a bad taste in my mouth and I am now thinking of starting a new, more private blog without that baggage. But you're right, people need to hear your story and you tell it so well.
