I didn't think it had anything to do with "taking responsibility" for
BYB Pyrs. I saw it more as compassion towards a mother who's child
was attacked by a dog. We're involved if *only because we know about
it. It would mean so very much to me to recieve kind words if it were
my son that got bitten. If our hearts are in it, that's what the
mother is going to see and remember.
