I can relate to all the moving from place to place, the constant questioning, feelings of abandonment, and the panic, oh, that panic. It's a wonder we turned out halfway normal. I wish you peace and acceptance in the coming years.....writing is crucial to understanding. Thank you, as always, for your words and stories.

The way your write about Questa brings us right into the heart and mind of this child. Her questions, her fears, her longings, her questions, so many unanswered and so many she cannot ask. I can relate to this.

I love how you sing your own song and the delicate, fearful way you wove the elements of fairy tales of children lost and orphaned, abandoned with your own fears and imaginings. You show how difficult your journey is and was. xo
