It took a very long time and A LOT of heartache to figure things out. In all of it there were so many blessing just like La Donna said. My kids will probably never be healed but I think it has made me a much more empathetic and compassionate person to others. Not really the way I wanted to learn it but I'm grateful for all that has happened.

I remember seeing Jeanine leave a comment on Stranger about potty training. I love that her story got shared with the Strangerverse. Thank you thank you thank you.<br /><br />Also, I always knew I loved Frank Sinatra. Now I love him so much more.

As long as it wasn't one of those half-hearted "keep in touch" moments making minimal or no effort at future contact. But I think I can trust Eli to stalk Jolyn enough to maintain contact amidst the grad school music-, uh, busyness.<br /><br />Loved this episode! Great job and Thank you!

I remember visiting as a child, but hearing her talk about those things we could never understand as kids was amazing. She is amazing. So grateful to her for sharing her story, and to you for putting it all together.
