Thanks for sharing with us, that must've been really hard to get out. SnF.

You do need to try to work on punctuation a bit, but other than that, you were able to invoke your point accurately. I'm glad you took the time to enter, and hope to see more.

Besides, you survived. You're a father. Do everything you can to correct the mistakes of the past. Life moves on.

Wow, you've been through a lot! Hold on to those kids of yours, they're more precious than anything in the world!

S&F!
