Grace,
Thank you for this; it was really great to read. I see your posts often as I read this forum, and I appreciate the time and insight you're willing to share with everyone. While each of our paths are obviously our own, I see some similarities in your story as I've come to understand it to my experience, and it's heartening to see how you've come through; it helps me feel there's hope for me as I begin to find my way. All the best to you in 2016.
