My Dearest Miriam,

I want to tell you that I am sorry. I have thought about you frequently since I heard your story on the news. I wish I could have shielded you from those bullets. I am so incredibly sorry that like so many other times change will inevitably come because a tragedy has occurred.
I have had a pit in my stomach all day thinking about you. I keep saying a thousand things over and over again to you in my head but they're not reaching my fingertips. I just keep coming back to
I am Sorry; I can feel your pain and it makes me feel physically ill...

My heart aches for you. Your story could have been my story.
ReplyDeleteIt took me four years to say the words, "I had postpartum psychosis" instead of my standard" I suffered postpartum depression." You can read about my experience at my blog. http://mlreads.com/2013/10/12/i-suffered-postpartum-psychosis/ #formiriam
