Additional Comments: I tried imagining myself in Katie's position as I was watching yesterday's show. Even though it's a soap and I can't imagine it ever happening, I felt for her and also agree that she is so justified in how she feels.
There is nothing worse than someone telling you how you should feel. Or that you are wrong feeling a way that others don't.
Storm shot her in the first place, accident or not. That hasn't been brought up in their conversations. Also, Brooke failed to mention that they were all hard on Storm before he pulled the trigger and his feeling like he had no other options drove him to do what he did. I don't see that as being a HERO. He knew he was going to jail this time and that because of him, Katie could die. I agree with how Katie is feeling. No one should tell her she is wrong or that she should be looking at Storm as a hero, especially Donna and Brooke. Although, I must note, Brooke's conversation was much more feasible and heart-warming than Donna's speech was. But that's just how I feel..

Message: sass, the whole thing is just terrible. Everyone's going to feel differently in a situation like that, and Donna has just as much right to her feelings as Katie does to hers. There's not really a right or wrong, it's a tragedy through and through for every one of them. Storm's not the bad guy here any more than Katie or Brooke and Donna. They all have blame in this. And to me the worst blame is not getting Storm the help he needed in the first place, because THAT is what started it all! And in that, they all share!
