Someone offers another drink and I open my mouth to enquire about the cranberry juice availability. Before I can muster two syllables, lightning strikes. I am the only one to flinch.

You Are Not Alone
Change is a constant in life. You can be going through your daily routine and within a second, it can all change. That's something I'm all too familiar with. Since I was five years old, I've dealt with trauma and change. It's the only life I've known. And that's what I want you to know: You aren't alone in your struggles.
