Cindy,
I apologize for not writing sooner, but I have been dreadfully behind in
my e-mail, too. I've only been able to scan some (many) messages and try
to get a grasp on everything that's happening. I dropped out of one
mailing list because I was overwhelmed by all of the mail (and also, it
was an issue that isn't immediately crucial to my emotional health -
ptsd/post-traumatic stress syndrome. I probably have a little of that
from having lived in an unpredictable, abusive home, but not nearly as
much as war veterans and survivors of sexual abuse. Fortunately, Mom was
able to keep Dad from getting that far w/'me.) and still I find I'm
swamped. But I feel the need to stick w/MOL-Cancer, my depression
recovery groups, and my CLUTTR mailing list (which helps me learn how to
organize and clean my house/one of my weaker points). Anyway, that's why
I haven't posted much lately.
However, I do want to tell you that my heart goes out to you right now.
You already have had so much on you - and now this w/your son. I'm so
grateful, too, that he is alive. God surely was gracious in that. Now I
pray that God keeps giving you the strength to keep going on.
Love,
Jean
