the hard stuff.
unfiltered.
This is where I bare it all—the raw, unpolished truth of grief, loss, and the struggle to find my way. Here, I let you into the depths of my heart, sharing the pain, the love, and the moments that have broken me but also shaped me. It’s not always pretty, but it’s real. And in the chaos of it all, I’ve found flickers of peace, love, and life again. This space is for anyone who needs to know they’re not alone in their hardest moments.

I’m So Strong
Hollow, silent, tearful, nauseous, nervous, complete and total decimation of all feelings inside my soul. Who can help me cope with that? No one. Grief and grieving are individual gauntlets, and in those moments I didn’t want to live through anymore gauntlets. Especially not this one.

Let’s Just Wing It
We were cheated and robbed of our son. Our son was robbed of his life. Killed by his best friend. In a car crash attributed to alcohol. When you are with the person you trust most in the world, aside from your family, and that person makes choices that have the most extreme consequences, it makes it extremely complicated.
