Bless you, teachingranny
By sj

No way can I imagine your pain. You just go ahead and have any kind of day you want to have--I'd say you were entitled...and I did speak to your best friend (and mine) and asked Him to give you strength and peace in spite
of the storm. I went through a tough time once (not nearly as bad as yours, but it seemed so at the time), and learned one important thing--people can be a lot more supportive when they know they need to be. I tried to run and hide, and cheated myself out of a lot of support. As time went on, I opened up, and found that there's a lot more people who would like to hug your hurt away

than people who want to sit in judgement. I was afraid, embarrassed, and vulnerable because I was hurting so badly. I wish I had let go and let my "best friend" take care of me sooner. It sounds like you are already reaching out and letting some other people help you through. You sound like you've got your head together pretty good already. I'll keep you in my prayers.
