While it’s a terrible thing to go through I do find a tiny bit of comfort that there is at least one person in this world who knows exactly what I have been going through for the last 8 years.

I am sure you will reach someone out there that can relate, and just needs that small push. Or to know it is okay to ask for help. You are an amazing person. I am so lucky we met. I love you as my sister, and Zacarri loves you too. She is lucky to have you in her life to guide her in the right direction, and be able to open up to her Auntie Erin. Since she also fights Osteogenesis Imperfecta, you can help steer her away from addiction and would be able to see and read the signs if she happens to venture the addiction path. I am lucky because as her mother I can turn to you for advice, as I have. You have always been non-judgmental and gave me truly great advice and perspectives. Thank you for helping and sharing with the community
