I totally agree also.

Yes, she is alive, and hopefully finding some peace in her life.
It's hard to know what to say about that. There are folks on VF who have known her for a very long time and were friends in real life. She has abandoned them as well.

When I was unable to log-in for three days, I was not feeling very kind. I won't be paying my subscription dues anymore.

I understand that. I was posting from my perspective only and not judging what others may think or feel. It’s not my intention to speak for anyone other than myself.

Alta, I fully understand the frustration of people here! And I'm so sorry that some VFers who had more personal relationships with Wendy have lost these.

I know for me, it's very easy to get judge-y (I guess that's not a word, but it fits) in these types of situations. I may vent my annoyance, but then I try to fall back on my compassion (try being the key word there).

Toaster, thanks, it's a good reminder to not be judgmental. Although, I think it's understandable to get frustrated sometimes. I guess you can feel both.

Glad she's alive, but this makes me even sadder and more disappointed in her.

I feel the same way. It makes me very uncomfortable.

Are you saying you received a message from her email....or you were messaged through her VF account?

Yeah, I guess I come off as the heartless bad guy. Yet, I'm the one who receives the PMs from VFers who are also very angry, but don't want to post about it.
