[Thomas Treadwell]

I so agree with Ann's point of view - what was written may have been in good 
faith - and boundaries need to be respected.

> I understand Connie and Manuela's descriptions of being at Boughton Place in
> January and with Clare Danielsson  as a desire to reassure a grieving
> community that Clare was actively appreciated by many and had moments of
> being surrounded by a loving community.  I am however disturbed by the
> description of what for me would be private moments and ones which I would
> like to have held in confidence.  Confidentiality is held as a high value in
> our community and death of a person does not waive the right to privacy.
> 
> I apologize if this sounds like a lecture. I do not mean it to be nor to
> detract from a positive desire given by Connie and Manuela to share an
> important moment of theirs with Clare.  The fact of a person having a
> treatment, the experience of the reiki person and the ceremony details cause
> in me an alarm. Confidentiality can be breached for the best of intentions.
