I am so happy for you. I actually created my account this evening because we are in the midst of our own lawsuit and i am feeling overwhelmed. I can't eat, I can't sleep and I think I am developing an ulcer. Is there any advice that you can offer me in regards to handling the stress that comes with all of this? Any advice would be appreciated

Michelle,
The stress is like nothing I have ever been through. It was very diffiuclt for me to sit through testimony of the defense expert witnesses. All I could do was pray that the jury could see through the lies. I tried to keep busy during this process which essentially took seven years. I decided to go back to school for my RN which really kept me busy. The support of my mother and sister really helped. I cant tell you how many nights they stayed up on the phone to let me vent my frustrations. I think I physically aged about 10 years, the stress can do a number on your body, I ended up with cancer on my face in December. Try to take care of yourself. Make sure you get enough rest, if you cant sleep at night (which was one of my big issues) it's ok to ask your doctor for an RX for sleeping pills, they work. My marriage went through some rocky times too, but we made it through and so will you! I knew in my mind no matter what to outcome was, we werent going to lose anything. Our Bradley is still a happy and healthy child who has brought so much joy to our lives. Hang in there Michelle.

Always great to read good news for a change.
Congratulations.
Scott
