What's been one of the lowest points of your life, so far?

Probably my junior year of college 2008-2009. I was taking advanced nursing courses which were hell, getting 2-3 hours of sleep a night, drinking crazy amounts of coffee and energy drinks to keep myself awake, and just not taking care of myself. Oh yeah, and it was the middle of the Great Recession.

If it wasn't for my parents and my awesome roommates, I probably would dropped out of school.

Right now....maybe.....watching my dad suffer fighting cancer and my mom suffer with him.

@Notanymore My mom has breast cancer. I think the hardest thing about it for me personally, is not knowing how much longer she has.

@Rose0415 i understand that completely. Each week it seems that another dr brings up palliative care. Or more bad news. It's difficult to remember how blessed we've been facing such unfair circumstances.

@Rose0415 @Notanymore I’m sorry that you’re both having to deal with that. My mother survived breast cancer. Now she’s dealing with dementia. Pop has been there for her through all of it and I’ve tried to make their lives easier, whenever I can. 🥺

@bijouxbroussard i feel you there. We all have to go through points in our lives. It's not easy, but we have to remember our blessings brought us here.
