Very nicely said Chicana..
I remember those pills for when Grand - daughter passed.. I felt numb.. daughter did too.. I don't know name of them.... they were really tiny tho..
I'm so sorry for your loss. I feel sick just thinking about losing one of my kids.
I hope your daughter's ok.
I don't think mom had anything to do with it, but I noticed the lack of tears too.
If I were in her shoes (God forbid), I'd need drugs. Valium,zanax, whatever they'd give me to keep me from a total breakdown.
She's either cried out or taking something that makes it difficult to produce tears. I know I've heard of that side effect with certain meds, but I don't remember which ones.
I don't know if I'm as strong as she is, I can't imaging living without them.
And knowing they suffered would be more than I could bear.
I hope I could be like her. Since she can no longer live for Somer, she's living to make sure Somer didn't die in vain and that her death doesn't go unpunished.
I think she might be out 'in public' because she's afraid to be alone.
She's trying to keep herself going for Somer.
Or, I don't know what I'm talking about and should stop psycho-analyzing total strangers.
Anyway, maybe Somer's Mom is just another really strong woman like this little girl's Mother was, but, till I learn more, she's number one suspect on my list based on her demeanor. Again, I HOPE I am way opff base.
Na, na, na, na, NO! Don't stop!!! This is what I was asking for. Asking for people to help me see Somer's Mom more clearly. Nobody's convinced me yet, but....
There was a case, maybe last year, or the year before, where a little 4 1/2-5 year old girl (with single mom) was abducted from her front yard, and IIRC, was playing with a (male?) playmate who was able to provide a really accurate description of her abductor, and then, the little girls body was found like 36 hours later on the side of a big hill. A California case. Anyway, her Mom was very open with the media too....If you said her or her mom's name I'd go "yeah, that's it".

I would just like to know why Somer's father has not seen any of the children for 2 yrs.???? I don't want to start anything .. not saying he is a bad father.. On one of his media clips they held up a picture he has of all 4 of the children from 2 yrs ago.. and he stated he hasn't seen them for 2 yrs.. It is really not that far from his house to theirs.. why no summer visits?? other holiday's??
Just seems like we are overlooking the big pink elephant in the room.. he is never discussed hardly at all... Is there just nothing to talk about , we should just ignore the fact Somer had a father ??? TIA
Please , don't get all angry and please don't jump down my back... I just am curious .. that is all..
Reading some reviews --- many patients reported they were unable to cry when taking Celexa or lexapro.

Sorry chicana- your post seemed like a good one to quote. No reflection on you.
Come on now people. Don't make me pull teeth or hairs....HOW many cases have went down where YOU ALL were ALL OVER the parents for not "reacting correctly". Casey A cried without tears, you all tore her a new b***. Remember?
What is the difference here??? My GOD!!!!!!!!!!!! Her baby girl has only been dead for 5 friggin days now? Shouldn't her attention be on her surviving children? She acts like she as all the time the world to devote to press conference and appearances. When she does appear on TV , shouldn't her loud, squeaky sobs be accomanied by WET TEARS?????????????????? And WHAT'S UP with that slight constant smirk on her face???? I cannot be the only person here who notices it?
You all know, that IF, come Monday morning, you turn on the news and learn that the focus is now on her own home, 100's will suddenly come out of the woodwork and say, gee, I thought it strange that she cried and sobbed with DRY EYES!
I just happen to have the balls to say what some might be thinking ALOUD. As stated, I HOPE that I am wrong. But, I can't explain to myself why this woman unnerves me the way she does.
FWIW,, Ripley, the woman gives me the same vibes, but I'm reluctant to attribute her behavior to guilt in Somer's death. As for the lack of tears, sometimes the knowledge that you are being watched and expected to cry will cause a person to do just the opposite. I've experienced that myself after the death of loved ones. It's a self-conscious response. I also agree with Chicana's post about antidepressants. They suppress empathic responses, thus the dry cry. IMO, it's quite possible that medication is responsible for much of the seemingly unusual or detached attitude we've observed, right down to the inappropriate "smirk".Sorry chicana- your post seemed like a good one to quote.

Does that mean no unsupervised contact with children forever?
