Silence is unhealthy but so many people do not know how to deal with this topic or waht to say. Thank you for opening yourself up and for breaking the cycle.patriciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10530858872577858406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-9829880429791535372012-11-04T20:13:17.608-05:002012-11-04T20:13:17.608-05:00You are an amazing woman!!!

You are strong, brave and doing...Way to go Kristi !<br />You are strong, brave and doing the right thing. You are breaking the cycle of silence in your family line. Your children and grandchildren and every future generation will be blessed and changed by your honesty and willingness to face rather then stuff. My family is steeped in alcoholism. The generation before mine hide it in silence. They were ashamed. They enabled by hiding the truth. I like you choose to face it and talk about it. I told friends that if they came to my house they would see drunken people. I refused to accept their choices to put shame on me. I did not make those choices others did. The good news is the tide is turning in my family and as generations come we have less alcoholism and more TRUTH.<br /><br />You are charting a brand new course. Praying for you as you journey . . .Maryellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08375436627544043508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-30968527104076553622012-11-04T09:15:43.012-05:002012-11-04T09:15:43.012-05:00Thank you for sharing.

This year also marks the 25th anniversary of my step-dad's death and my mother's attempted suicide. I was only 5 at the time and my mother 30. This "issue" was never addressed and my life from there on out was changed forever. For me, things have really come to the surface this year. I turned 30 and gave birth to our sweet baby girl. And now that I have a daughter, I could't imagine putting her in my shoes. Although I chose to end the cycle years ago, this year has really put things in perspective for me. I'll continue to push on - as I know reversing this aspect of my life will be a life long journey. I'll be praying for you too!Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09799030390378473455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7668050648919046122.post-73133625283589428572012-11-04T07:37:22.808-05:002012-11-04T07:37:22.808-05:00I too lost my mother at 9.
