You take care of yourself sweet maya. ❤️

Oh Hillary. No no no. The ends don’t justify the means. That may have been your coping mechanism bc you’re married to a creep but the real people creeps affect need you to stop this shit.The creeps don’t need you defending them, there are assholes everywhere that will say get over it without you jumping in. Also…

I struggle to forgive myself and it took a long time to put the right label on what happened. But from the moment it started I froze and focused on and still remember the details of the ceiling. I can’t speak out though except in therapy. A child came from that incident. I was a child myself but had no options…

How are you maya?  Thinking of you and wishing you peace and less loss and chaos in your life.  I didn’t lose my home but I lost myself and destroyed my relationships when my mental illness blew up.  I’ve rebuilt those relationships but always fear it could happen again.  I fight hard to keep my head straight but am…

We should be so lucky

I spent months super annoyed when my otherwise lovely husband was on the ivanka will fix this thing.  Not realizing how fucked up that would be if the non elected daughter of a president people feared would be a chaos monster was the only only hope.  It made me bonkers obviously!

She’s got no reach. People other than I held out hope she could have a moderating effect on her dad.  There was no evidence she ever has and is anything but her fathers daughter.  The suburban white women I know thinks she’s a sham. Her valid pr will no doubt fail. Yes, she’s the golden child but it’s because she’s…

Your kindness, positivity, determination and persistence are rare and I know they were hard won. It’s beautiful. ❤️

Your kindness is beautiful.  Thank you. Again, I’m so sorry about your Ollie.  The pain of losing a beloved companion is real and can be crushing at first but that love, those times of comfort and joy and friendship with them stays while the grief fades.  You can’t replace him but often animals and people find each…

I’m sitting with my 14 year old dachshund, who I know can’t be long for this world.  I love him so, as maya bravely did, when it’s time I do the loving thing and not let him suffer.  It’s the hardest part of being a good pet owner.  I’m already telling myself nothing will take away all those years of joy we had.  …

❤️ To you too sweet maya

Maya I’m so sorry. I wish I could hug you right now. One of my sons is named Ollie so in addition to rooting for you, the person who so many of us care about, I was happy you had an Ollie to love and who loved you in return. Wishing you peace.

That was my first thought.  Then, please god don’t publish trump sons at the beach.  

I just saw my reply didn’t post a couple days back. You’re right that has been the case. There are wide range of ways people have chosen to deal with either relinquishing or being adopted. I spent years trying to deal with my experience and hoping time would make it easier. There were so many facets involved and…

Christ that’s a horrible thing I’d never once thought about until now

They are like that everywhere and I just don’t get it. The cops were so useless they were dangerous. Every call for help was met with lame and false reasons*I* didn’t have a case.  I was in the hospital unconscious and they let him in my room.  He pulled my iv tube apart and left.  I needed a transfusion. They said he…

My experience and one common among birthmothers is that its always there no matter how hard you try and leave it behind. It’s traumatic and there is a real need for honesty about the lasting impact of relinquishing a child and serious counseling. There’s no right or wrong way to live through it. Adoptees are fighting…

It’s for this reason, an experience I myself went through being treated like trash by cops after I was brutally raped by a stalker ex who was hiding in the shrubs outside my door waiting to attack when I got home, that I told my daughter if it happened to her I’d support whatever decision she made but sometime the…

I forget the name of the nfl player who died by suicide in prison. Since his appeals were pending at the time his record was cleared. Messed up but that’s how it works a lot of the time.  

Totally agree. Being confined to prison and losing his jet setting freedom would have been intolerable to him.  He wasn’t going to cut any more deals.  He was going to prison. There will be some victims glad he’s dead but many will feel robbed of justice. I don’t usually think suicide is cowardly but in his case I…
