Fellow Supporters; A clear and comprehensive evaluation of the current crisis that has entrapped Ms. Cruz needs to be assessed. I understand it is being assessed. The circumstances under which this crisis came about is also being evaluated. Our intense zeal and support for Berna Cruz comes from our strength as a community. It is profound to have received such an overwhelming response to my request. I have read, "PAIN and ANGUISH" from other fellow Goans and Indians who have experienced similar feelings of rejection and humiliation at the same time opting to leave it on the back burner and move on with their lives. This experience brings back past memories. It is commendable. It speaks volumes on our strong values and cultural upbringing. I am a firm believer on "Action" over rhetoric. At the same time it is necessary to evaluate the victims situation. I believe Berna Cruz has been traumatized and afraid to come forward. She may eventually discover that there is a community suuportive of her situation. Till as such time we hear from Berna Cruz and respect her privacy let's keep waiting on her. I haven't heard anything as of yet. EF Boston, MA __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
