So very sad! Have you ever looked at some old photos to realize the people in them are young but they look so old? It's so crazy! Living in horrible health conditions age the body physically. I've lived more than two life times and should be dead if I lived in Fusterbury. :) Happy a2zing!<br />Cathy Kennedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01056276734145310231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040914078355130442.post-34474193552936907572017-04-09T15:33:26.722+01:002017-04-09T15:33:26.722+01:00But they have each other and that may serve as the...But they have each other and that may serve as the key to their freedom! <br />*My mind running wild*Anmol Rawathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086791539325903369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040914078355130442.post-5071838012038118392017-04-09T03:51:58.767+01:002017-04-09T03:51:58.767+01:00Doesn't sound like a very nice place.Doesn't sound like a very nice place.Liz A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531953467834426316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040914078355130442.post-43249594783533086282017-04-08T20:23:22.975+01:002017-04-08T20:23:22.975+01:00Wow!
