A very happy 33rd birthday gorgeous. Loved the read. I am so glad the therapist and you found each other. Score one for the occasional positive side of Twitter. Be well.

Thirty-three is often an important year. I know from your writing that it will not go to waste. Being an older and disabled parent to children being raised Jewish is worrisome at times too. My very best wishes for you and yours, Debrah Ede-Neville.

Here’s to ALL of the parents out there!!!Including parents of furbabies, children, lizards, fish, symphonies, documentaries, new unions, and great works of literature.

May we navigate these waters without too much in the way of psych meds and inpatient stays at THE LAUGHING ACADEMY (also the name of my pop/punk garage band)

Was the Cult Elder in there for therapy? Is he deconstructing?

No, he wasn’t. It was a family doctor so I'm not sure his reasoning.
