Then as I got older it was I can't leave my kids and animals. What would they do with out me? Now that they are grown it is getting a little harder as I am older too! This latest round of depression I had a hard time thinking of a reason to live, then I thought AHA! Granddaughter needs me to teach her about animals! This can't be the end yet I might just figure out this thing called life! So I will stick around a while longer. Also now I think it is becoming a game of lets just see how I make it back this time. That is why I got a tattoo of a Phoenix bird because I have risen from the ashes and depths of depression and addiction and illness so many times and managed to come back! Every time I have gotten depressed the only thing that has really saved me is ME and anti-depression medication. Reaching out for help which is something I am really NOT good at. I shout at the top of my lungs.....I AM A SURVIVOR! There just might be an animal in need of rescue!

CONGRATULATIONS! There IS always one more HUMAN in need of rescue too.
