I was a Social Worker. A mandated reporter of abuse. I was an Educator. Again, a mandated reporter of abuse. I am a Certified Pastoral Counselor. I am required to inform others if there is significant danger in their lives. If I had private messaged the individual that this "drama" complaint is about, it could have easily been overlooked.

I have been taught in every area of my training, all my life, to weigh the consequences of my decisions. If it is a life or death situation, it is better to err on the side of saving lives

By no means do I wish to cause any drama. My motivation was not to cause or add to any drama But to protect.

Trigger warnings. The very mention of "Trigger Warnings" strikes at the heart of someone who struggles with pain, uncertainty, and all too real drama for rhemselves.
So, prefacing, my remarks with a Trigger Warning is not a solution for me, either.

The only solution I can find right now is to just stop. Stop and reflect. Think it through, and be mindful. I was trained years ago as a First Responder, too, so I'm not quite sure how all that will work.

Give me awhile. There's an answer to the problem in there. Somewhere. Meanwhile, let's see what we can do today with a propped up post surgery foot!

Adios,amigos,
