I love you....You always know the right thing to do. I love you. Speaking of PTSD my daughter Rachel and I were discussing the other day that she feels like she has it. In her life, as you know in yours, there is never a moment where it stops. The stress, the joys mixed in with the vigilance. The worry your child could die all of it is with her every moment of every day even in her sleep. The strength it takes to be that mother is unlike anything else. I bow to all of you. <br />Barbara Potterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08498753553850789559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-79127347960362524032015-04-24T02:49:48.274-07:002015-04-24T02:49:48.274-07:00Rereading my comment, it sounds like I'm sayin...Rereading my comment, it sounds like I'm saying that I'm uneasy about YOU, and I apologize! I think what I'm saying here is that when people say I'm wise, part of me wants to say, "Akkkk! No, I'm just making my way through this the way any of you would! It's not my wisdom that's brought along a brain tumor to a wise person!" So I generally appreciate the warmth that's conveyed through…what…I'm not even sure. I guess I'm talking about some of the compliments as feeling distancing. If a friend touches my shoulder and makes the "This can really suck, can't it?" facial expression, that can feel really connected.<br /><br />I am truly throwing this out there without even rereading.Alison Piepmeierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17972854288403934814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-64374416932562440782015-04-24T00:09:03.360-07:002015-04-24T00:09:03.360-07:00All I can say is YES!

I may be uneasy (grouchy?) by the expectations that you're brave, wise, etc. But I know that this framework works for you (isn't it odd how we can find some similarities that emerge from our differences of opinion).<br /><br />Anyway, my tired brain gives you a hug.

After all the drugs the medicos have been throwing at the problem with little to no success, how dare they question and try to criminalize the naturally sourced substance that is working. You and Sophie and the family deserve every good day, week, year you can get. I wish you many more. x0x0 N2N2https://www.blogger.com/profile/09508740809219902631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4863417462909147257.post-51466696911779870772015-04-23T10:27:16.030-07:002015-04-23T10:27:16.030-07:00Seize the moment!
