Softly bold, Gayle. Beautiful and inspirational, as always.

One I would love to read your future explorations of: how much we moms use our children to address our own emotional needs, and where the boundaries are for healthy relationships with those we bring into this world.

What a privilege to read such an exquisitely expressed story of a deeply personal and very grim tragedy.. woven with mercifully counterbalancing elements. Thank god for children, siblings, new love and renewal! In this era of increasingly narcissistic (and badly written) over-sharing, this is a welcome and rare stand-out. Bravo Gayle. Beautiful and brave.

‘Everything will be alright in the end. If it’s not alright, it’s not the end.’

A beautiful piece that broke, then mended my heart.
Thank You
