Dear Elizabeth,

Please don't do that.  Please just give it a day or two's thought first.  I don't want you to quit, no one wants that.  I know how Lise overreacts, that's why I asked Mark to send that e-mail (which he hasn't).  Victoria being sick is NOT your fault!!!!!!!   I'm sorry if Mark
and Lise want to unburden themselves of any responsibility and blame you, please don't let them get to you.  What Mark said on the list was totally inappropriate, and I have dealt with that, as you can see on the e-mail I CC'd to you.  Please don't let this take you away from
CHERUBS, I don't want that, none of the other members want that, and Cecilia wouldn't want that.  I know Lise has been a thorn in your spine and trust me, I DO understand, because I have tried and tried with her too.  If you leave CHERUBS, she wins!  She blames you for
Victoria being sick instead of monitoring her child's time on the computer and honestly... do you really believe she's sick because of an e-mail?  If you phrased it like you just said in this e-mail, why on earth would she be so sick as to be in the hospital?  It's probably a
virus and she happened to get upset at the same time.  As religious as that family is, do you think one little comment in an e-mail she shouldn't have been reading in the first place would make her that sick?  I'm just saying DO NOT blame yourself, it is NOT your fault!!!!

Now, Miss Rachel.... WHAT????????   What happened?  If you want to talk, I'm here, I'll be home until tomorrow morning except for a meeting from 4:00-6:00 today.  Then I'll be at my mom's (434-248-9028) until Sunday evening.  You are in my prayers, and I'm saying a ton of
prayer for Rachel too.  Please, please, please, deal with Rachel right now, don't worry about this mess, it's taken care of.  I'm not going to accept any resignation from you for a least a week until you've thought it out and things have hopefully calmed down a little bit.
But just don't worry about all this, you need to take care of Rachel and YOU and that little one on the way!!  Elizabeth, you're one of my dearest friends and I love you and if there is anything I can do, I'm here for you.

Love,
Dawn
