As for our family we shall celebrate the Eastern Orthodox Easter which occurs on the same day as the…Read More Fiesta. Most of us suffer from duodenal ulcers, precluding the ingestion of Mexican food. In accordance with tradition, we'll feast on pig's trotters done to a turn on the bar-b-q grill.

Yes, lets talk more about wine and chocolate. Maybe it is not too late to diet.

Dr. Sears is right on the money. We've focused on starving and depriving ourselves as the only…Read More alternative to obesity. Really it is about nurturing and caring for ourselves. I love that he mentioned wine and chocolate at the end of his talk. My book on making a healthy lifestyle change is entitled, The Wine and Chocolate Workout.

Until more facts would be shared on this, one might assume that his "mental illness" was a…Read More form of deep depression. But depression is often only one symptom that coincides with several other symptoms under a more complex mental illness type (ex. schizophrenia, etc.).
I'm hoping that homosexuality wasn't considered the "mental illness" in this case. Unfortunately, in many religious families in the United States "mental illness" still appears to be the preferred category under which to compartmentalize homosexuality.
Shripathi Kamath April 15, 2013 at 02:44 pm
At some point someone in the responsible media will seek confirmation: "what form(s) of mental…Read More illness(es) did Matthew actually suffer from?" In other words, what was the medical diagnosis. Surely it is not a matter of "respecting the family's privacy" at this point.
"The same advances are possible for mental illness. The public will is there."
Until one has to fund such. Then it becomes about mooching, welfare, socialism, governmental influence etc.

Are you also absolutely disgusted at Rick Warren and his ilk when they lash out against homosexuals…Read More and homosexuality, particularly when gay teens commit suicide out of despair having suffered the concerted effort to demonize them and their behavior?
"I am so afraid of what this country is coming to when I hear about how awful people can be. "
Yes, it helps though when you close your eyes to gay teens committing suicide and instead choose to make martyrs out of the perpetrators.
Again, no one should have to suffer the pain of losing one's offspring -- not the Warrens, not the ones you hate or love.
The Warrens' grief was not caused by anyone else. Their kid allegedly had a mental illness and in a moment of despair he killed himself.
But there are those whose grief has been contributed by Warren and his ilk. Perhaps his supporters would be mindful of those as well.

I am going through a very similar situation as Sandra. I am not from OC but I learned of this…Read More strong woman via my sister. Thank you Sandra for standing so Strong and getting the word out to others like you and I fighting this battle. Your words and sentiments in this article are exact and as I read the article it re-assured me of all I'm going through is just par for the course. Thank you also to the writer of this article for bringing Sandra's story to light it really does help others.

Please listen to your body & rest when you need to. You know from working out that your body…Read More will tell you if your lifting too much weights or running & hurting a knee? Well it is the same thing now, you are not weak if you take some more time to yourself to heal , watch some TV & find some food that tastes good & know that if you do take this time for rest, then the world will still be here when you're feeling better! & You will feel better & stronger much faster if you take some time & rest!!
Please rest & heal, the world understands & you will be better & back again aa strong as ever!'. Take Care!!!

I just got this and looks like this contest closed at 6PM....My unusal pet are our two Red Eared…Read More Slider Turtles. Their names are Analysis and Geo. We rescued them from a lady who had them at her counseling office who got pregnant and did not have time to care for them. We have had them for 6 years...They are very tranquil to watch!!!

Tina, I have not visited the site for a while and I see that you are still making it your personal…Read More forum. That is unfortunate, because you have violated the purpose of the site. This is not a place for theological discussion, for the putting down of other believers or condemnation of a family or their dead child. Please consider others in your discourse.

Oh Miss Claudia...didn't ask for your opinion of anything, therefore I'm not interested in anything…Read More you have to say. I really don't want to see such dumb articles in the positings for Laguna Niguel. Previously Patch was for the area you live in & now it's going south quickly I predict it will close by the end of the year...very little here.

We love Rick and Kay Warren; and we hurt because they are hurting. Since we have utmost respect and…Read More honor for them, we find it difficult to hear the periodic mean-spirited comments made by some; mostly, ill-informed individuals. Rationale thinking says that any tragedy in the life of any person or family demands compassion from others--not railing. If we were able to collect the supportive notes and letters for the Warren family and compare them to those who are lacking kindness and empathy, I believe the clear message would be sent--Rick and Kay Warren are dearly loved and the presence of God is their strength.

You seem you have a lot of anger for this Preacher of the Gospel! Tragedy is tragedy! Why…Read More persecution for this man? He made nobody to choose life or death , they had a free will , Its unfortunate they choose death, Suicide spirit is at and all time high, more military men and women have committed suicide the last couple years more than anytime in history ! Dont blame a man! Choices are made individually! our prayers should be for all that are hurting!

Ragland, looking at the situation regarding the facts, not a biased opinion because I may personally…Read More know them. I have read every report and listened to the rescue in real time on the scanner.
Their behavior raises questions that they are unwilling to answer seemingly claiming memory loss. These are facts , it's not personal.

(cont.) So, my guess would be Nick is trying to say he'd love to retrace what happened to get more…Read More insight. The truth is, we may never know the full truth.
I really think unless you have been in that state, you really don't know. I wish people would just use their energy to be grateful for both teens & families, thank everyone who in any way contributed (including prayer--I believe it all helped), marvel at how quickly a community can come together (remarks to me from Nick's family were how nice it was to know how many nice people there truly are), and learn from this what we can. But, do it without judgment which is just never helpful.
