Hey 25, You had a rough go of it on M Day weekend! I had to take several DEEP breaths as I read your post, especially the parts about D19 being attacked. (If you'll read my last post in my thread you'll see what I mean.) I'm glad she wasn't hurt any worse physically, but now that whole scenario is stuck in your head. I've always believed that mothers really can't be any happier than their unhappiest child. And only mothers really "get" that statement. I hear so much much sadness, and fear, and weariness in your post. That makes me so sad. You are so valuable and have given so much to this forum. I want you to be OK! Do some radical self-care and love for 25 today. When I get down, I like to say to myself those beautiful words from The Help- "You is kind. You is smart. You is important." ((((((25)))))))
