Social media is like a picture frame, a billboard. Each image is meticulously chosen by someone. A seemingly perfect shot. And put on display for all to see. But what we forget, what we don’t see, is the photographer behind it. The reason why it was framed the way it was framed. What was on […]
The gush woke me up. My eyes shot open, and adrenaline quickly traveled to each corner of my body. When it reached my chest, my heart squeezed and went into rapid rhythm. I turned to nudge Stuart. “Babe,” I said as I kept nudging. “Babe…I just felt a huge gush.” His eyes opened slowly as he […]

I was standing in front of a sea of crop tops, […]
~ This is a continuation of Part 2 ~ I didn’t look at the needle. I knew what it looked like. Instead, I buried my head in my husband’s shirt, bent forward, and gripped his biceps with my cold, fragile hands, desperately trying to stop my body’s convulsions–convulsions from being famished, from running on 42 hours […]
I wanted to feel nothing. As I plunged my hands into a bowl full of ice water, I remembered in high school when I electively took ice baths after track practice and how the shocking, debilitating cold almost urged me to vomit. This was different. This was worse. I needed my hands numb. I needed to […]
Every winter, I’m reminded of you. Every winter, I’ve been missing you. It’s taken me years to write this, but I’ve been writing…I’ve been writing your story, our story. And now that winter is turning to spring, the ice has thawed and vanished, and the air has lost its bite, I feel that I can […]
Every winter, I’m reminded of you. Every winter, I find myself missing you again. It’s taken me years to write this, but I’ve been doing it…I’ve been writing. So many times I’ve had to walk away from it, but I always come back. I always come back to you. I’ve been writing your story. This is for […]
