Hi Flori
Thank you for sharing this personal moment. It is so sad that your child has had to mature to the point of understanding stage 4/4. She "gets it" and she is a kid. I know that you are very proud of her compassion and sensitivity.

You have each other - she can drag you back from the cliff, and you can soften her brick wall. She ended her poem with the crux of the situation - never give up, never stop fighting.

You are blessed to have each other.
