		<description>&lt;p&gt;&quot;If you don&#039;t have Gloria, you must buy her. Every fish needs Gloria just as much as we need our bicycles: if not for comfort, for entertainment!&quot; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Couldn&#039;t have said it better.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;We are lifting you up right now, fish.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Dear Fish,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;My thoughts are with you and your parents. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;And I want to thank you for putting into words why the divorce of my parents after a marriage of very nearly 35 years almost knocked me of my feet, even though I&#039;ve lived on my own for years and years. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;It&#039;s all there in this line:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;...and tried very hard to remember that my world is no longer built on the stability of my parents or the constancy of home life.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Take care,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Doris&lt;/p&gt;</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear Fish,</p>
<p>My thoughts are with you and your parents. </p>
<p>And I want to thank you for putting into words why the divorce of my parents after a marriage of very nearly 35 years almost knocked me of my feet, even though I&#8217;ve lived on my own for years and years. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s all there in this line:</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8230;and tried very hard to remember that my world is no longer built on the stability of my parents or the constancy of home life.&#8221;</p>
<p>Take care,</p>
<p>Doris</p>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Fish,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;I can honestly say that I understand.  For me, it was a disposable boyfriend rather than someone with whom I have a filial connection.  I know the pain is deep, the questions endless.  From what I read on your blog, though, you are a very intelligent and resilient person.  This will not pass.  This, for the remainder of your life, will remain.  You can and will, however, find the strength inside to embrace your father, support your family and be the foundation you need to gallantly live within and sometimes confront the outside world.  Without the intent to trivialize your situation, I highly recommend that you pull out your Gloria Gaynor Greatest Hits CD and play &quot;I Will Survive&quot;, repeatedly!  If you don&#039;t have Gloria, you must buy her.  Every fish needs Gloria just as much as we need our bicycles:  if not for comfort, for entertainment!  (Some smart fish, 200?)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Take care!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;My father is a diagnosed Schizophrenic and my best friend is in the hospital for this same reason right now.  Although my father is much, much better, I&#039;m not so sure about my friend.  There really isn&#039;t anything to say, but you&#039;re not alone.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;That&#039;s very sad news, but there are some excellent medications out there that really, really help you to function well. I know, because I take one of them. They really make a difference. You hang in there!&lt;/p&gt;</description>
