I hope everyone is well.
Yesterday my DD was inducted into the National Honor Society. I have been on my up's, so everything was positive. Well there was a young lady there whos sister was in my older DS class. There Mom had cancer. She was diagonis when my DS was in second grade 1995. Thru the years we watch this lady slowly detearitate. She lost her battle in 2004. I forgot about this lady until her DD wrote a speech about her mom and how her life, illness, and death effected her. For the first time I really saw from a childs eye. Nothing has ever effected me like that. I just want to know how to hold onto this when I'm suicidal?

Hey Joan,
What a proud mom you must be! That is awesome, Joan. I hope that you realize the part you played in raising your dd to be eligible for such an honor. I know that it isn't just good genes. She was instilled with an attitude of helping others through volunteering & community work. Not just brains!!! She owes you for that:)
I am a big supporter of imagery. When I need to relax, I imagine that peaceful place in my mind that I re-create from a peaceful experience in my *real*
Hi Lori
Those are some very good ideas. I have several journals going. One for all positive things. One for anger letters, my general one, and one for each interchild. Then I have one that has affermations. You had some very good ideas. I made a book that has all positive, pictures, cards, notes from the kids. But when thing get really bad, it seems like the books and journals can not be found. I'm going to use your ideas with mine. Thank You

Hi Jan
I have a place I go to when stress is to much. It is a beautiful island and I can take anyone there I want to. I did take my DD there with her honor pin and we play in the water and watched the dolphins. I go there often lately.
Thanks Joan
