I wanted to request Gina's email address - she and I have almost an exact same story...

I just don't talk about this anymore - because it is a story - a very real story to me - yet, in a way when you try and share the scope of the story, it isn't readily acceptable...

I have continued to do the personal work I need to - to be present to my daughter and keep a close relationship.

I salute you for doing this program so close to the holidays - since this experience is more difficult to manage during holidays time...constant processing of grief -

Thank you,

(Please don't use my name)
