You Be The Judge

I've gone round and round in my mind with this one.

The story has become public knowledge and has been all over the local papers and news reports.

For so long I could not share the website for friends and family to donate to, for so long I have had to talk to others about "this one patient". However, now the story is all over the place.
This is the story I came to know, the family I came to know.
But now....
This is when the story first broke and this is the subsequent report.

I guess the thing about this, for me, revolves around trust, respect and integrity. Am I a poor judge of character? Over the years I have had to realize the picture I painted of a person was ever so wrong. I guess it is a natural part of life.

Although I try not to think about it, I do have so many questions and thoughts. I don't know. I've always been a strong believer in the idea of "to each their own". However, knowing the children, knowing the amount of fundraising, charity donations, equipment they have been gifted....aye. I'm torn.

Alas, I'll share the links and let each of you be the judge.

I know it must be extra hard considering you are one of the people who cared and who were deceived. That being said, who knows what lengths people will go to to protect their family from being embarrassed or ashamed. Maybe that was the motivation. Poor judgment for sure though.
