Sounds like gale-force winds are blowing through your life. May you and C ride them with as much grace as humanly possible. Hauntings are a brilliant foundation.

Thank you so much for mentioning the gale-force winds. I sometimes feel like I’m complaining too much when I mention everything that’s happened in the last year. Thank you for acknowledging that it’s been hard.

Sending love, hugs, and prayers for you and C and your sweet pup. ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹 That’s such a lot to deal with. I’m thankful the hypomania is turning around. That’s a brutal roller-coaster. I’m so sorry, sweet girl. 🫂

This year has been a lot, but I’m still grateful for everything that we have – I’ve become very aware of how things could always be worse. ❤️💕

The most recent emergency is over; thank you for asking. He is still dealing with some major symptoms that are inexplicable, and the doctors seem to be confused as to what is causing them – he’ll be taking a new series of tests now that the original bunch of tests, the ones that cover everything relatively ordinary, came back negative. ❤️

💔Not having a diagnosis can be a haunting of a unique hell. Craving certainty and control is at the root of my worst days. I scoff at grounding practices and inner child acknowledgment but when I offer myself to them, they help me. Your writing is always sings on the page and I am grateful you want us to keep writing too❤️‍🔥
