I forgot.

2007-02-14 17:47:11 · answer #1 · answered by Hazel 4 · 0 4

I grew up in an abusive houshold. I had two half- brothers, the youngest of which I raised and loved as a son. The time finally came when I had a window to get out of the situation. I knew that my leaving meant that I would most likely be kept from seeing my brothers again.

The one moment in my life that I will never forget when I had just signed the lease on my first apartment, finally taking the first step towards independence from my family. I was 22, and my 8 year old brother was in the back seat of the car. He was silent for a while and then teared up as he asked if I was leaving. I turned to him and said,

"I am a grown up now and it is time for me to go. Mom and I don't get along. I want you to know something. Just because people are grown up doesn't mean they are always right. We make mistakes too. My leaving has nothing to do with you. I love you and will always love you."

As expected, my stepmother did everything in her power to keep me from communicating with my brothers. I have been told that she says some pretty cruel things about me to them (probably that the abuse is my fault because I left). When I see them now, they talk to me like a stranger that they have to say hello to.

Not a day goes by that I dont think of that moment. I don't regret getting out when I did, I only wish that I could have taken him with me.

The day that I found myself sitting on the end of my bed tieing a noose and trying to find the best way to attach it to the celing fan hook. That was the day that I couldn't deny any longer that I had suicidal depression, after that day I asked for and recived help and things have been going up from then on. It serves as a reminder of where I never want to be again, and an inspiration for going onto bigger and better things.

Hope this helps.

When my fiance was in a near fatal motorcycle accident. It turned my world upside down. He was the provider, the rock in our family. My kids were devastated and they walked around like little lost souls for the 2 mon. he was in the hospital. I felt helpless at times, but I had to suck it up and be strong for my kids. I suffer from severe anxiety so I found it hard to function at times. The hospital was an hour drive in a big city. It was a terrible time, but I can say this, it made us stronger and brought us all closer as a family and that, I am thankful for.

December 11, 1998 - the day my husband's ship returned from a six month deployment to the Persian Gulf.

For us, absence truly made the heart grow fonder. We were best friends and close before he left. But enduring the six months apart truly made us soul mates. It was the happiest day of my life to have him home safe and sound.

The moment that I heard my son give his first cry, as he was being pulled from his mother in an emergency C-section.

We knew that something wasn't right, but had no idea what caused the preeclampsia to hit so suddenly. They took her blood pressure and wheeled her in to surgery.
He is more than I ever thought possible for me, and more than I deserve!

The day my Mother died...I know now what gut-retching pain is and the emptiness. My heart was beating but I didn't feel it as the sorrow flooded over me and my loss. My Mother is in a better place, now. I had to remove my selfish feelings of loss to revel in her eternity with God in Heaven. Made a huge difference to celebrate her Heavenly existence.

I crashed my bike once while riding. I got up and dusted myself off and saw there was not bleeding, no major scratches. Then I took off my helmet, looked inside and saw that the fall had split my helmet literally in half. I had taken the entire brunt of the fall on my head. Had I not been wearing my helmet I think I no doubt would have died. Kids, always wear your helmet.

Right after my little boy was born and had been cleaned and wrapped up, the doctor brought him over to see me for a moment before he went to the nursery (I was still in OR). My little boy looked at me with his big blue eyes which seemed to say, "I know who you are!"
