My Darlings, I know life is hopeless right now but it is not! The cliche where there is life there is hope is so true! I have battled depression and chronic pain since I was 17I'm 48 Im 48 now. After my daughters were born i had a hysteectomy after dewaling withEndometriosis for 10 years. I thought i would finally be free of pain. I was wrong.adhesions and scar tIssue i still have pain. I was suicidal from it. My children have never known what a pain free mother is. In 2002 my husband left me, 6 days later my Father died, and 2 months later a drunk driver hit me. Again, pain, depression., after 2 surgeries and multiple procedures i was again suicidal. I kept going though for my Daughters and now, even though stress is monumentl again, have my own home, a man i adore, and daughters who are proud of me and whmm I am soooo proud of. So many things i things i would have missed if I had not lived. There IS hope please believe me! I pray you will reconsider and choose lif and love..
