November 28, 1998 I must constantly remember and at times force myself not to become like those who have caused so much pain to my innocent child and to me. I have been lied to, deceived, financially raped and emotionally devastated. Still, I must not lower myself to the level of cruelty and sinfulness that those that continue to harm my precious Nadia have. I forgive them, I can do nothing less than this. After all, I am a Christian.
