Talking about rape, abortion, adoptions - also the last 20 years of my life. Don't read it if you don't want to read about yucky stuff. Go anywhere else on my blog, there's plenty.

“Mommy, why did you get sick?”
As little as two months ago, that question would have started a shit-storm of self loathing, anger, and telling myself what a lousy Mom I am.

I would find myself begging people to forgive me or constantly seeking... Continue Reading →
