Blackgnat, you have made amazing progress.
I am proud of and for you.
I'm sorry. That your child chose this path -- as did mine -- is heartbreaking. But here we both are, blackgnat, standing up, learning to cherish our lives.
I read yesterday that we can change our self talk by viewing our hearts as healthy, and strong, and brave.
Walking with you.
Right there beside you.
One brave heart to another.
Cedar
