My sister has left the cult! Not officially, but out,loud and proud. One step at a time.
So, those of you who are well versed in how to do this: how do I help? What do I do or say without alienating her? Keep in mind, we are a large, Catholic bunch with a heavy duty Mormon periphery. Those LDS types will not be happy and us Catholics (ranging from practicing to atheist) are walking on eggshells.
I always thought I would know what to do and say, but I have to admit, I am humbled. By my sister's courage, by my own ignorance (hey, I looked up the word in my dictionary, it means lack of knowledge, not stupidity, folks!) and by the hope of a better tomorrow.
So, help!
