Yes, I had heard of them before, but I never realized just what all they went through. My heart breaks for them.<br /><br />Blessings~A Joyful Chaoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13647481484192797931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-50505335932580351092017-11-12T07:08:56.855-07:002017-11-12T07:08:56.855-07:00Susanne, how very sad.

But I must not be part of the "voyeuristic society," as I have no idea who Jon and Kate are!

Seems like the title was WE WERE FIVE. It was a breathtaking story even then, and I could not put the book down. The story of the Dionne quintuplets is a tragedy on many fronts.

But, had no idea that their lives were still so heartbreaking even into adulthood. You're so right about how voyeuristic we are. The John and Kate story is just tragic, and unbelievable that it is happening in a so-called enlightened society. I guess we still have a long way to go.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09147413132595250490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-48975303957804293802017-11-10T16:16:32.968-07:002017-11-10T16:16:32.968-07:00Barbara: Yes it is hard to imagine.

I don't know if we have learnt the lesson. We are really a voyeuristic society.Susannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757963698816530787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28854403.post-43688082688422428902017-11-10T15:49:52.788-07:002017-11-10T15:49:52.788-07:00Oh my word.
