      From JaneD November 12

      Greetings Johanna, I went to Western Australia - bad timing by my daughter: they'd just moved house (to a 4 bed 2 bath), and she had to go to In House Teach-in the next week. I came down with migraine - finished up in Hospital for 2 days, but couldn't be treated, so let out. My s-in-law (who does not like me one bit) missed half days work bec. of me, and was angry. I was due to go down to Perth (the Capital) to stay with friend, and have small op. on jaw. Friend I was to stay with had to go into Hosp. herself, so that was end of op. He played X-box car- race games in room next to my bedroom(paper thin walls) through his 20K sound system - bringing back migraine. Next day I'm put on railway platform with ticket & change for 8.15am train thePerth THEN given the worst abusive rave I have ever had from a sane person. I was responsible for all these horrible pychological things (I was so stunned - I wrote one sentence on my X-rays - quote "You have been playing mind games all your life" - not logical - only known him 9 years: and I may be a lot of things, but I do not play mind games. I was in shock I think - only realized where I was 73 miles on, when train stopped, and woman - the imagine of Lauren Bacall, asked if the seat next to me was vacant! Had no idea where I was going when I got to Perth, but kindly woman (wife of a Pastor) took me home, fed me, talked to me - and even organized my fare home (on the red-eye special leaving 1am! )- luckily I remembered I had a Credit Card, which I seldom use. I've spoken to elder d. - who knows what he's like (he doesn't like her either): just hope she does not write to my younger. She phoned & asked after me. Told her I was alright thanks! Only feeling Ok today: they are coming her for annual hols. end of this month. Sadly I cannot go to visit elder d., as "The Prisoner" - her hopeless cause, is out of Jail - and he's a No.1 mind game player (a sociopath). I don't even want to see them Johanna. Elder g'son will go to his father's place, so no chance to see him. I just don't want any part in her trying to tell me that I didn't experience what I know I did - I've been through all this stuff for years & years with 2 psychotic people. Do I sound sane - because I really wonder? Fond regards, JaneD. PS - Aware enough of world affairs to be really overjoyed that Obama has been elected!

      I am a quilter who works for a healthcare organization that provides services for people affected by hepatitis c. Chronic illness is a serious issue for millions today, and I'm excited to see someone interested in quilting. We have a small group of four quilters in another group, and we're in the midst of a project.
