Thank You!

Since my last post we have been overwhelmed with the amount of support and outreach that we have received from friends and complete strangers alike. With community support like this we are sure to get through this rough patch in one piece. In your shared advise, thoughts, prayers, and personal stories of parenting a child with depression or trauma you all have given us hope and for that we thank you!

When we first began this healing journey almost a year ago we were afraid to talk about M's struggles for fear that he would be judged and stigmatized, but through this we have learned how wrong we were. In every situation that we have disclosed M's personal struggle and our struggle as a family to address his trauma related behavior we have been met with understand and full support wether it be his school's principal and dean of students or close friends, our church community and extended family. Everyone has gathered around M and it has been beautiful.

We are slowly learning that it really does take a village. Thank you all for being that village!
