I have been on a journey all along. My primary reason for blogging at all was to share my life experiences so that others may know they are not alone in the good and bad they experience. I have glossed over some major details of my struggles because I did not feel it necessary at the time.
Mothersense is me, it is my writing to the world to inform and perhaps entertain those who dare to read it at all. It is also an outlet for frustration and contemplation on situations. It is a therapeutic tool for me.
At the end of September 2016, my wonderful exuberant daughter who continues to struggle with her bipolar and other disorders tried to kill herself in a very public way. The attempt was witnessed by many and praise the Lord she was not injured, others were able to intervene. She spent some time in a mental health facility after that. It was hard. She cried. I cried. Thumper stood by us all through this and was remarkably calm and supportive. (Have I mentioned how incredibly blessed I am to have this man? ) She came home to same rules, new meds, same school, and things are better. We all know that there will be other times because mental illness is life-long, but we also are reminded to take nothing for granted.
Still blessed folks! Love and light!!
