I'm really sorry for what you're going through mim; I can't possibly imagine and I mean that.

Quite honestly my heart fell through my chest when I first read this message and as bad as it is to say (please don't hate me), I actually felt some relief when I read Harry, not Peter. I can't believe how terrible this sounds so my most sincerest of apologies.

To those of you who may be new or may not know the circumstances around my reply I'll just state that Luba is in fact my mother and Harry is my Uncle. I believe Harry betrayed my mothers BIG HEART many years ago and tried to pit her in the middle of a family feud (that he was soley responsible for if you ask me).

I don't hate Harry nor do I harbor any ill feelings as I don't fully know the circumstances behind what happened (I was too young). The simple fact that he put a truly wonderful person through torment (my mother) is enough for me to have passed judgement years ago.

Luba, I'm really sorry for what you must be going through and I'm extremely sorry for my thoughts on the matter. I'm not really in a place right now where I can afford to come down to Nelson but if you need me there then just say the word.

Love Ken
