Brenda Slaby Reaction

She was an assistant principal in a public school.  aha.  Confirms the horrible nature of stress of working in public school.  That was my first reaction.  I always am telling my students about how my brain has to hold so many things in it at once, that no, I cannot remember to ask the P.E. teacher if she recieved their registration for the running race, they will need to do it if they want it done.  How terrible.  I saw her on "Where are they now?" on Oprah.  She has gained weight, her husband and her divorced.  Just like on "Extreme Weight Loss Makeover," many of the participants are eating their way through grief.  My heart goes out for this woman.  How do you even remain on the planet after something like that, facing society, the workplace, every interaction?  How do you find the courage?  I would need heavy meds and therapy and I hope she has both.
