Hi, Jai,
>>Now I want to know what happened. It's kind of like looking back at a 100-car pile up on the highway and wondering what happened. How did I make it out alive?
<<I'm so sorry that life's been so painful for you. And it's awful to watch someone suffer, be it your mother or father. Sometimes we are blessed with easy healthy childhoods. More often, we're not. This is your history, as hard as it is to look back on it. Take from it what makes you strong, and learn how to make yourself healthy in other aspects of your life. I really believe we can take tragedy and turn it into strength and happiness. The journey's just harder for some than others.
Thinking of you,
Susan
