Fabulous blog...so right on and si...Dearest Lauren,<br />Fabulous blog...so right on and sincere, self revealing an authentic. I have some idea of your struggle and no, your are NOT alone. Married 4 times and without very much wanted children, I too laid in bed questioning my worth, the myth that life and mine in particular would fit the fairy tale version and asked myself often, " How could this happen to me? After all, wasn't my life supposed to be charmed? Doctor's daughter with a beautiful accomplished, albeit sever Bipolar mother, I was supposed to have it easy with a great marriage, a fine career for dillatant, not income, purposes and three perfect children." It was a real shocker when, at age 27, I broke my neck falling off a 10 speed bicycle and was transiently paralyzed and spent the next untold years trying NOT to define myself by that and other tragic events. When I asked my shrink, "How could this happen to ME?" and she responded, "why not YOU?" things began to change. I became one of the Indians and was relieved of the burden of being chief...way too much. I became part of the human suffering masses, each with our own story of triumph and trajedy for which we are all unsung heros. No, Lauren, you are not now or EVER alone. Bless you, my friend.
