Have not been on,, but I do often come back to the place that saved my soul,,, although life sometimes smacks us down,,, remember to always.... put your big girl pants on,, some lipstick,, and not remain in one place,,,,, For most of you by now,,, My daughter Katelin's life was saved by the Grace of God, and He brought her out of the depts of the devil,,,,,as she no longer breaths on earth,, her being is surrounded us with love,,,, I miss her every single day, but as the year mark as passed, the sense of peace as reach, I no longer stand by the window, or engulfed in the ringing of my phone,,,, Ive chosen to celebrate her life, instead of mourning her death, and in so I forever keep her memory alive, with the strong involvment of continuing this fight on addicition,,,, as long as I breath,, I will never give up hope,,, Addicition is a disease of the mind body and soul,, it never goes away, but can go into remission,, there are success tribulations, as some of my friends have great revelations,, there some where their kids are behind bars,, where odd as it may sound, are at peace,, Addiction is not prejuidice, it does not care if your rich or poor, what race you are,, or what the family status is,,, because everything that I believed to be true before, were all myths,,, My daughter was rasied by two loving parents,, in house full of love with three other siblings,, we were not rich, but I was able to be a stay at home mom,, We will never understand the chemicals in the brain, that blast a person into addiciton,, drugs, manipulation, lying, stealing those are all symptoms of the craziness,,, never allow yourself you feel guilty about anything you could of or could not of done,, even though it is a disease,, that person, chooses to self medicate,, Love the person,,, but hate the disease,,,, I am a proud mother of beautiful daughter that gained her wings, because of the ugly demon of drugs,,,,, I will continue to reach out and help, in the memory of Katelin,,,,

This site is truly the most inspiring, compassionate, and great place to know your not alone,,,,

My adivce to you,,,,, Love yourself first,,, Its not about the storm,, but the ablity to dance in the rain!

I'm always available to anyone,, I truly do understand,, Ive walke in your shoes, know that journey oh so well,,,

Peace!!
