hey Sue:

I am glad you forgot your planned script and gave talk from your heart. I am sure it must be great speech. Even though I didn't attend, I have read about your journey and your struggles. I know for me my jouney was less lonely due to bloggers like you. I knew I can get through this bump in my life, if Sue is able to go through her difficult life's journey.

Sue,

When my oldest children were young, I was told to read good how-to books then close them and put them away. I learned too that was the best way to prepare for a speach; write out the notes then put them away. What comes out then is a mixture of head smarts and heart feelings. It is always closer to the mark. I am sure that your chat with fellow survivors encouraged many. I learned in my speaking days that I was often the one blessed as well as I expressed what was inside. Hope this chat did the same for you.
