Fiction Feeds Trauma

Jazmyne Danielle and Daddy at a Stephens-Cooley family reunion in Maryland.

You would think that a fictional funeral wouldn't bother me AND

when I see one, it reminds me of the pain I felt.

It connects me to the fictional people.

I remember how hard it was when I had to sit through everything and allow that to be the official goodbye.

I am not read for an official goodbye.

I try to believe that it is not real life and that it's a horrible nightmare that I am going to wake up from soon.

Please continue to guide me and send me the strength I need to continue in life.

Love you!
