Guest guest Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Dear marci ~ thank you for taking the time to share this story with us. Recently, I have thought that I want to ask my husband and daughter what they remember about the good times we have. This is because the childhood trauma I went through caused me to not remember, and in forgetting the bad (as best as I could), I forgot everything. And continued to forget all through my life. In my mid-20s I was afraid I was developing Alzheimers because I had so little memory. My doctor said that, to survive, I taught myself to forget, and never stopped. Now I want to remember. Recently I received a Christmas card from my cousin. She included a picture of me and my sister and herself and her sister (what a team) all together as little girls. What a gift. Thank you marci, for keeping true healing in the forefront.

What could be a more splendid prayer of reflection than that? And what a gift they were to me on my book tour. I will always believe that being seated next to them was no accident.
