Dear Daisy,
I care about you a lot and I would miss you terribly if you were gone. I would miss having a cyber friend who was traveling the same road as I am, and who I can count on to listen and to encourage me when I am feeling the blackness and despair. At those times, I so easily forget that the pain will lift, that there is light beyond the darnkness, even though sometimes I have to wander through the dark tunnel all alone.
Your children love you in a way that they will never love another. You've cared for them and nurtured them to be the healthy children we were never allowed to be. You've given them a gift of yourself, and as they grow they will learn to know and love other parts of you that they may never have known existed if you were to let "it" win now. Maybe they would blame themselves, and wonder what it is that they did to cause this. You know it isn't them, they are probably the best thing about your life right now (mine are, for sure)and they are the reason you are here, but they may not be able to tell the difference.
We all love you, Daisy. I hope you can find the strength to fight these feelings off. Although it is still so very painful, you have come so very far...
I feel strong enough for both of us today, so I'm sendng you all of my strength to help you stay safe.
