From people who came through it

  • โ€œNot sure if this makes sense. Please be gentle with yourself. I wasn't, and it made everything harder. I told my siblings exactly what I needed instead of hoping they'd notice. And talk to someone, even if it's just in here.โ€

  • โ€œTo whoever needs this: I was where you are in 2022. I remember hearing about family news secondhand like it was yesterday. I got a new job in April. You get yourself back in pieces. From someone who gets it.โ€

  • โ€œReading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are about three years ago. I remember when my grandkids I have never met, like it was yesterday. I picked up the guitar again. It doesn't stay this heavy. Sending love.โ€
