...and I told her so. Told here she's my new hero, and I meant it.

She was very scared and nervous. She didn't think she could do it (say anything at all). I tried to reassure her whatever happened or didn't, either way would be okay with us, and with DB. But the time just before the workshop started must have felt like total h*ll to her....

****And she did it anyway!!**** It's really difficult to explain how important I think that is. She went through her experiences from beginning on Babble up to now - the good, bad and the ugly with honesty and courage....and she transfixed those attendees. Everyone applauded. I myself was close to tears and smiling all at once as she spoke. I felt proud and sad (at what dark places Debeb's been to in the past) impressed...and more. It was a moment I won't forget.

I don't want to get any more specific, and maybe I've already gone too far (sorry, Deneb) because I'm guessing she'll post about it hereslf, and that's where you all should get the nitty-gritty details from, if she wants to explain....so I'll refrain right now.

What matters is a roomful of vastly different people were clearly touched by her words.

What matters is (or at least I pray this to be true) Deneb climbed a huge mountain of anxiety and self-doubt (and God knows what other powerful emotions I can't imagine) over a matter of *minutes* and achieved a HUGE triumph right there in that conference room in Toronto. Gives me chills, still.

That is one brave young woman. wow.
