Cos of my computer difficulties looks like I missed a big upheavel
Hmnnn I don't like plagerisation well no writer does, but I do think that Mary has problems we don't know much about. God be with her, and show her a way out from her troubles but please may she at the same time learn not to distress or steal from her fellow blogits.

Re: Julia
without stepping on toes, I know Mary is aware of our concern, but at the same time I believe she planned this concern

Julia, very wel said. But I don't think Foliage is the type.
She is a wonderful writer and all of our Bloditville's community is with her with our prayers that she is all right. Yes, suicide is definitely not the answer.

You are a lovely person and I pray your prayer for Mary with you. I sensed that self destruct in Mary and unfortunately I couldn't be much help to her because of my own mental insecurities with my past life dealing with thoughts she may be having.
We all make mistakes and I would have only forgiveness for her as well. I am worried about her and I think in time Blogit may have been the kind of therapy that may have helped her over a longer period of time.
I do know that if a person decides to take their own life there is nothing can be done to help unless the person goes for professional help. I had to do that myself.
As recently as last week another person called me and told me they were going to do that, and my answer is always the same.
"The only person that can prevent you from doing that is yourself." But again I did send police to talk to that person.
Unfortunately I have had that happen about 7 or 8 times in all my years being sober, and I couldn't stop them. Only God can.
Suicide is violence turned inward of course, but it can go the other way and that is even more tragic.
I say God Bless Mary and I hope she gets sorted out

this is a very nice blog you wrote here for Mary. I know Mary never meant any harm and only wanted to be accepted like all of us do. She never brought me any harm, matter of fact she always offered me help if I needed it, but at the same time she was a very lost confused woman. Like many of us single people we just want someone to love us and Mary I believe fell in love with love. She was tormented by the loss of her husband and her daughters, I believe she fought the battle of health issues and drug and alcohol. I think she tried to get out from under the torture she felt, and her mind played tricks on her. I remember when someone on Blogit talked about suicide it upset her very much, so I really don't think she would do something that foolish and selfish as that. Would she really do that to her darling daughters, I would hope not. She is hiding out now out of embarrassment and feelings of despair I am sure. I believe I might know Mary the real person.

I agree with you 100%.
While none of us can say for certain what has gone on in her mind, though I was told that she took her blog down for other reasons. She didn't mention anything about plagerism in her emails or in my voice mail when she said that she wanted to drive her car off the bridge.
I haven't had any response from her since.
I have been trying to keep up with what has been going on here, which isn't easy to do from a Blackberry.
Whether or not Mary would or has commited suicide, I don't know. But I've seen some here that unfortunately want to make it a joking matter, and I don't feel that it is one.
She was obviously reaching out, for someone to help her.
There is a lot more I could say but my arm aches from holding the phone.

julia,Could you email me as to what is going on because Im really stressed
trying to contact Mary. I can sort of understand what happened from reading your post but if you could just tell me what went down. Did she mention suicide? Because she emailed me saying she would always love me. I tried to phone her but am only getting an answerphone.
