Ditto what SAS just said....you can pick your friends - the family you WOULD have chosen if given that chance...

One thing to keep in mind that I'm only just beginning let into my head. People that always act the same way and that always bring about the same emotion about in you/us aren't ever going to change that. Sometimes we have to search within ourselves and figure out how to change how WE react to how they constantly make US feel. I know its easier said than done, but if we finally see that if we get around the "if they'll just see that it'd be nicer this way" or "if they could only see what it does to me when he/she says that"...etc, etc, etc, and realize this: people don't change. We can only adjust and protect ourselves and keep our hearts and heads happy...and in the company of those who DO value and love us for US.

Love you, Donna. I'm sorry your family hurts you. Your PT Family wont...we love you, sweet one.

Love, Kelly & Kits
