My Darling Lauren

I am writing you this letter to engrave my words on your soul

I do not think you comprehend the MAGNITUDE of the pride and ultimate joy that you have given back to this family

The “Comfort Cloud” for any grandparent are the “memory capsules” we hold dear to our heart. I remember the day you were born / I remember you blossoming into a radiant / beautiful / intellegent young girl - YES I remember it all

That first faltering step I simply put down to the “Experiment Bubble” that usually ribbons youth and I was confident that it would pass - It didn’t

With lightning speed you sprinted down that dark avenue of “No Tomorrow’s” with the devil already holding your hand - For us as a family our nightmare journey on the “Trauma Train” to hell had just begun and we all had a ticket

Your “self respect” evaporated / Your “moral compass” was non existent and your vision was a haze of interwoven hours / days / months that no longer mattered

Once again your dad was there to rescue you and you went back to rehab willingly....fragile / afraid but determined to do the miles with guts and grit and succeed - Our despair became hope and God was listening

TODAY almost 2 years

Clean / Healthy / Confident / Business woman / Mother etc etc. Words fail me - But Our Prayers have been answered

Thank You My Gorgeous Grandchild - It is wonderful to have you back home

❤️❤️❤️

❤️Nina Loves you Beyond Beyond❤️
