That little me then did not have the luxury of an adult mind, or independence, or anything, but made it anyway.
I think she/me is a marvel.
In a real way, I owe her my life.

Thanks ellliemay - that is a challenge to how I have thought of her - I have always blamed her for everything, so in my head it has felt that as long as I keep my distance from her, then I will be OK.
So now I am thinking whether she did actually show strength to get through it all and I guess that means trying to change the way I think of those things as being not "her" fault - wow that is something to think through - I have always thought it was her fault.
Thank-you for giving me another way to think of it - Soup
