    No one takes birth trauma and current financial state seriously

    @lisajaner I had a 1.5kg 34 weeker and NICU stay 5 years ago. It still haunts me and hurts. The terrorized mind is real and people that write it off have not experienced it. Lucky them hey.

    What was the moment you knew you were OAD?

    @katrina2017 Yes !! This!!! It’s a series of moments that just go, you know what no, this is just all too painful, too hurtful. I hear you, I see you.
