And remember – in the Culture Wars, or the Big Picture, we must never allow ourselves to forget that we’re human, and that kindness to individuals is at least as important as fighting the good fight.

We care about you.

I’d care about David Barton too if he was in that situation. That’s the hard part, with you it’s easy. For family, for friends, of course you care. Caring for those who are total strangers,or who actively hate you, that’s harder. Necessary though if you’re not to hate yourself for your own failings.

Now please convey a big THANK YOU to all on your medical team, and those who have looked after you. I owe them.
