Thank you 🫂 There are always people who offer to help when we're struggling in town, too. It's definitely not everyone! I just feel like this sort of thing has become normal, people think it's an acceptable way to behave.

The worst has been when my son, who is disabled, has been having difficulties and people have started filming. It's beyond ghoulish. I don't really know what's happened to us as a society, but my faith in humanity really couldn't get any lower.

You're spot on here, Dom. I've seen it first hand.
