Very well written. I could feel your pain as I was reading it. I had a stepfather as a teenager who sounded a lot like your mother. No fun

A Virtual Hug
At times we all feel very alone and lost. Your story is very reminiscent of a few times during my own childhood when I felt no one cared about how I felt -- your writing is very powerful. Consider this a "virtual" hug of thanks!

Don't make me cry!
*sigh* That was so sweet of you! Tears are welling up in my eyes. And here I am, at work. I'm glad the halls are empty right now.

My Heart Goes Out to You
What a sorrowful tale Jenn. After I read it, I went into my daughter's room, picked her up and held her close to me. I whispered "I love you" about a hundred times in her ear in hopes that some of our love would find its way to you.
