From people who came through it

  • โ€œI've been there. For me it was a few years back. I remember when my grandkids I have never met, like it was yesterday. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It changes. It really does. Sending love.โ€

    Salvatore from Parma ยท been through family estrangement
  • 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€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€

  • โ€œIn 2023, that was me. I remember when have not spoken to my parents in four years, like it was yesterday. Today I made breakfast, went to work and laughed at something. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ€
