“Feel don’t think” I’m going to carry that one around. Thanks!!!

Wow. Wow. Wow. This resonated with me so much. I too have had 20 years of strange inexplicable medical oddities. (Arm, shoulder, back, stomach, eye, menstrual insanity, etc.) and my latest which is 3 years of Ambien for my insomnia. My father was a preacher and my mother was a shrinking violet...

I’m getting angry now just reading this which maybe is a good thing. My brothers wife is a total bully and no one is allowed to get angry ... except her. My brother and I were both taught as children that expressing anger is dangerous. I certainly hope you’re doing well now and I’d love an...
