I was feeling strong
I was feeling like I had fight
I had a positive attitude
Now, I’m lost
I feel like I’ve lost faith in the system
I’ve lost faith in myself
I have no strength
I can’t fight
I want to die
I want to die
I want to die
I think dying would be easier
I’m mad because I want to watch my daughter grow up
But I feel like I can’t face the world any longer

He got away with it! There will be no trial. The Prosecutor gave him a plea deal and he and his attorney countered for a lesser plea and the Prosecutor accepted it. The plea was for Misdemeanor Assault with a lifetime No Contact Order.

It's over girls... my lining was only about a 4 and I had one follicle. I don't know what my E2 is, but it really doesn't matter. This cycle is going to be cancelled and then they are going to tell me I am in premature ovarian failure at 33.
I am trying not to be devestated, but I am.
This is the end of the road for us... I have no eggs, DH has no sperm. We hav...3 Recommendations28 Comments -
Lost in a Masquerade
Every day I put on my mask.
I smile and laugh.
I act like nothing is wrong;
Like nothing happened.
You can’t see the hole in my heart
The brokenness of my soul.
It is hidden behind the mask.
I am lost in a masquerade.
I play the game
No one knows the pain
I endure each and every day
With a smile plastered on my face.
The mask hides it all.
I am lost in a masquerade.
I listen to sto...1 Recommendation11 Comments -

My friend thinks she wants to give up the baby she is preg...1 Recommendation7 Comments

Now I can let go of th...1 Recommendation8 Comments

Am feeling very fragile today.
My pain was so bad yesterday, I just couldn't control it with my usual meds.

I didn't have to wait was seen quickly and treated well, I left with different pain meds at 9pm. they did take the edge off but I was still in pain an...1 Recommendation7 Comments
