I was online and came across Dr egogo Spells. I was having an issue with my partner we have both been separated for 4months. I thought I would try one more time. I was told that my case would be done in so little time. I must admit I was a bit skeptical with my past experiencs and all. However 2days later here I am back together with my partner and we are doing better then ever. If it was not for Anna Walton I do not know how I would be able to cope with life any longer.

The most recent was a suicide attempt last summer, and the ensuing family meeting was awful. You did a great job of conveying that in this piece.<br /><br />Of course your first responsibility is to your own family, and you're blessed to have a husband who could balance your perspective and help you make a right decision.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04823919278259760743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4693401219959272564.post-45009755009241165562012-05-10T01:43:21.181-04:002012-05-10T01:43:21.181-04:00Oh, Kelly, this was heartwrenching!

That was a no win situation, but I think you did win, because you did what was best for your kids. Still, I'm sure it's not easy knowing you disappointed your mom in the process. I wish you nothing but the best in this painful journey. I don't know what will happen, but I do know you have the strength to get through it!Muddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18335145703925880059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4693401219959272564.post-14548429742159151442012-05-09T22:37:09.903-04:002012-05-09T22:37:09.903-04:00Kelly, this is heart wrenching and very moving.

That you allowed your husband to override your desires and that of your mother is to your credit. <br /><br />It is never easy to see the right or wrong in that kind f situation, and even more difficult under the circumstances that prevailed for you. You should be proud that you've made it this far and are working through to make it to the end of the long tunnel.<br /><br />Perspective is sometimes the most difficult factor to gain or to appreciate. I'm happy that you have the love and support that you do, and that you have the deep, strong center that will allow you to make such decisions.<br /><br />Blessings to you, and a hearty thank you for sharing this amazing story.Claudette Younghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01323759000341863947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4693401219959272564.post-63541194621958255492012-05-09T10:14:18.415-04:002012-05-09T10:14:18.415-04:00Kelly, Thank you for sharing.
