oldman9x7: Dee:

It strikes me that you and Pecker are being a bit judgmental. As it happened, I was still in an active relationship with this older man until I was either 15 or 16. Was that still pedophilia?? In those later years I probably sought him out more often than not

Another item: a couple of years after we had stopped seeing one another so much, I contracted Malta Fever and was bed bound for several months - dropped to 90 lbs. - not much at 6'2" - and was told later that I was not expected to make it through. During this time, Neely wasdriving a truck, making local deliveries, and still he stopped at our house almost eveeryday to check on my condition. My mother told me that a number of times he had broken down and wept after seeing me. I have never thought other than that he genuinely loved me. Surely, you can understand that.
