May 2014

Apart from the most important things - the terrible loss, how loved she was, how tragic it is that depression takes so many really good, beautiful people, I had a few flashbacks thinking of finding my Dad. It's been over three years, but just knowing how horribly torturous the decision to do it must have been for him, nearly splits my heart in two and I can barely breathe if I think about it too much. I cried for onestepforward and her family. Just such an awful thing. I hope they get all the support and comfort from others possible right now.
