Your story touches my heart in several ways. Although I was blessed with a beautiful daughter who has just given me the gift of a granddaughter, i understand going through much of one’s life with a deep unfulfilled yearning. When I was just 18, my 2 younger siblings and I lost our beautiful, beloved mother to suicide. That was 50 years ago and theres’s not a day i don’t miss her, sometimes unbearably so.

Nothing has filled that emptiness but my husband, daughter and now grand baby have certainly helped me heal and give the love i got until our mother got too depressed to function. She died 4 years before anti-depressants from inheriting the awful condition that I suffer from as well. But with the help of Welbutrin I’ve been able to lead a productive life.

Although I had my daughter at 39 I had hoped for another child but we started too late. I also told myself having only one was better for our planet but that only helped somewhat.

Like you I am deeply concerned for all children, and those to come even more-so. That has informed my environmental work to help fight ecocide. Because once someone, or something like our precious planet, is gone, the pain lasts forever💔.

I will nevertheless require your DNA for my clone army. If you have a dream tonight that shadow people at your bedside, just ignore it. For science.
