I Don’t Know What To Tell You: Grief Week 15

I remember in the 90’s there was a lot of talk about co-dependency, and I thought that meant depending on someone so much, you couldn’t function without them. It was a sort of addiction, in a way. At least it was to my understanding. But the entire purpose of a marriage is for you to […]

I don’t know what to tell you: Grief Week 9

My Father’s First Born Son

You know what? I hated that anti pink aisle don’t put your girls in a girl box “girls” commercial — but let me tell you why… When people ask me about my childhood, where I fit in on the family tree among siblings, I almost always say–much to the chagrin of my father and my […]
