[B]Think about this... http://www.expressen.nu/html/bildarkiv/Saburido.htm



Mod Note:

 

it's a shame that the person who was at fault didn't end up the one on the short end of the stick. i would never be able to live with myself if i ever did anything like that. best wishes to jacqui and her family.

 

I should have heeded the warning....

Everytime I see something like this I always think of the people I know and care about and think to myself, what if this was them. Its not just the person who is hurt that is affected, but EVERYONE that they know is also affected. EVERYONE they know is hearbroken. Think if this was your sister, mom, gf, etc. That they will never ever be able to live a normal life ever again...yet are doomed to continue living this way. IMHO this IS a fate worse than death.


Now, I'll be troubled by this for the a good long while.

I couldn't live if I'd done that to someone, right or wrong, I would probably take my own life.

 

If you are still troubled by the first post, you owe yourself to read the pdf document at www.helpjacqui.com. The story of her recovery is an inspiration for us all. It very much helps me put my troubles into perspective.

 

sorry, I'd love to read the story, but I can't bear to look at more of the photos...its just too painful

 

That really is terrible. Hard to believe.

Absolutely - things like this make you realise just how lucky you are.
