Another brave entry this week.

I hope Audrey actually shares this with Melody, Lacy, Mary and Andrew so they know how strong their mother is. I hope they're the kind of kids who recognize all she did for them and how she overcame so much for their sakes and love her more for it.

I don't usually comment on the LJ Idol entries, but tthis took my breath away and left my eyes glistening with tears. Beautifully written. Thank you for sharing.

I quite liked the letter format here--the idea of these various letters (to oneself, to others) carrying these intense messages is interesting.

I always kind of thought so too. And I admit it often helps me when I'm writing something like this to myself, it puts a distance between it and me that makes it less painful and allows me to deal with it little by little.

I'm so glad you found the means to get out, and that you found the miracle of happiness after all you'd been through.

Your daughters must be so proud of you, whether they know it or not. :)

Thank you, me too. :)

They don't say it very often but I think they are. When we talk about that time in our lives, my older two daughters especially talk about how blessed they are. I am so grateful my kids don't have any side effects from what happened, so grateful for that.
