![]() While healing from the suicide attempt, I realized that I’d been torturing myself with all of the painful memories from my past. Then, my ex-husband sued me for custody of our sons, won and immediately moved out of state with them. I woke up from a coma a week later seriously brain injured. ![]() Because I wasn’t found in time, the drugs went all the way through my system. I’ve had more than my share of pain.Īfter taking care of my brother as he wasted away and died of AIDs, the end of my 18-year marriage to my high school sweetheart in an ugly divorce, and years of things not working out, and being flat-out disappointed with life, I tried to kill myself by swallowing pills. However, the painful memories of the bad don’t have to consume your life and haunt you forever. Enduring the loss of a child, surviving a bout with cancer, going through a messy divorce, or being the victim of violent crime are all too common. You can’t have the good without the bad. I’m not trying to be a downer, but I’m here to tell you to expect pain as part of life. If we’re lucky, we only experience a few deep wounds and even fewer “my life changed in a second” moments. ![]() None of us get out of this life unscathed. ![]()
