    Did your husband cry when he saw the movie too?

    j/k ABM, sounds interesting. Did you rent it or grab it off the interwebs?

    You funny, Sly. ;)

    Yeah, rented the dvd. Strangely, I read about it while reading another review of a documentary I'm about to watch: talhotblond. (which, BTW, I recommend MIXUM should consider watching.)

    All your posts bring tears to my eyes, ABM. But I have no soul nevertheless. Just allergies.

    I'm not going to click on any of those links, but this is the most gut-wrenching thread I've ever read in my miserable gut-wrenching life.

    Wow, I read the spoilers in the IMDB Message Boards. I have to see this documentary now, even though I know what happens.

    I watched it last night. Super tragic story, but it leaves you inspired to be a better human being at the end. Anyone who has raised or plans to raise a child should watch this.
