And how is an attempt to discredit me going to do anything?

There you go Jay and Lisa.
Mike with bob. Mikes daughter with Bob.
All I see are x-ed out boxes... but your point is?
Read your top post and that's my point.
What purpose does all this back and forth serve? How are the text capture and that image relevant to this thread?
Also miss high and mighty Lisa what right do you have to keep any animals. Is it even legal? I'm done with this thread, Jay will have a talk with Bob eventually and it will get settled.

I'm going to quote the message I just sent Steffy Paige, who just "friended" me then posted on my timeline...
"Congratulations. You see I have a past. You don't know me or my life or what caused the tragedies in my life over 6 years ago. I take it you are a friend of Mikes. I have had a lot of things happen that I cannot change, I can only do my best to make sure those things never happen again. Mike? Not so much."
I could spend hours trying talking about what happened back then, and how, and try justify what happened with the horses as a result, but the plain and simple truth of the matter is, I can't justify it. Tragedy hit my family, my mother had a severe stroke and 4 years alter my father had congestive heart failure and open heart surgery... I crashed. No excuse. The MINUTE my mother had that stroke we should have given the animals away, but that's now how it happened. I was alone, and became more and more overwhelmed, buried in depression and shut down. I looked for help, but no one was there for me. Disbelieve it all you want. I asked the local sheriff's office for help, and the records show that they were supposed to put someone in contact with me. They did not. But when it came to pass everyone came out of the woodworks to help the rescuers... why was no one there to help me? It doesn't matter, I shouldn't have given up, I should have kept trying and did whatever it took to get help for the animals, and for us. We were homeless, we barely had enough money to keep going, the medical having eaten it all (no insurance), but that is not how it happened. You all can hate my guts, but there's not a one of you out there who can hate me more than I hate myself for what happened. I can't change the past, all I can do is try to keep it from ever repeating itself. I've gone full circle and returned to my roots with the frogs, and I take better care of them than I do myself. I have much to atone to, I can never change what happened, and I will regret that to the day I die. I am doing everything I can to provide my frogs proper care and I have helped other folks with theirs. If I am to be judged then judge me by my actions now and not from the past I no longer live in.
