I am just going to have to come out of my bubble for a minute. Get my head out of the sand! It isn’t as though I don’t know messed up shit happens in this world, I DO KNOW! I just don’t want to watch it or hear about it anymore. It can seriously ruin your mental health.
leukemia Diagnosis & Joey: Part 2
After 2 hours in the ambulance, we arrive at the Medical University of South Carolina Children’s Hospital. I honestly don’t remember much about that arrival, except the greeting by the nurses on the floor. They were expecting us.
Sometimes I Just Want to be Alone
Monday, June 25, 2018: Today I had a rough day. It started yesterday. I figured my mood was because I was exhausted. I usually stay up all night editing my blog over and over until it is just right or until I can’t look at it anymore because I am going to be ill. In my head, it has to be perfect. Yesterday I didn’t want to do anything. Why can’t you have one day where nobody wants anything from you and doesn’t ask any questions and quite honestly, doesn’t even know your name? +8

Menopause and the Mid-Life Crisis

Prevention of Addiction: My Other Child
Happy Sunday my friends! I was overwhelmed by the response and amount of views on last week’s post and I thank you so much for the support! The feedback lead me to believe there was a need to continue the conversation about addiction and psychological disorders. This week I am going to discuss prevention. How we are going to try to prevent another one of my children, Isabella, from a co-occurring disorder.
