Dear Leslie,
I am very sorry that you felt offended by my post. It was definitely not my intent to do so, and I did state twice that it was not my intent to offend you. I simply felt compelled to mention that for most of us who suffer, this is a complex problem that deserves recognition as such.
I knew that you didn't issue the statement "Go and wash a car" in a condescending tone, but we do suffer such remarks in a patronizing manner from so many, that I think we need to be careful not to do this to each other. This is the only message my post was meant to convey. Once again, I apologize if you felt offended at my reply, despite my express intention and sincere hope that you would not.
Jackie M.
