(((((Nina))))) If you posted about this when it happened I missed it. I would like to take the opportunity to offer my deepest condolences.
Your letter is the most moving one I have ever read! You have done very well in your father's behalf. It makes me angry to know that he was treated in such an unchristain way. You are right, there are others out there who are in that same saddened state that your father was. A hug can mean so much, just knowing that someoned does care. I can't believe he was admonished for giving someone a friendly hug at an assembly. What a letdown!!!! He was expecting encouragement and what does he get? Counceled for giving someone a hug.
Nina, you are an inspiration.
