11. It leaves deep scars
Thu Oct 9, 2025, 08:48 PM
Thursday

I was orphaned seventy years ago at the age of four under the same circumstances. You never forget the horror of watching your mother then your father die. I’ve never adjusted to become a ‘normal’ person…..just cope the best way you can.
Peace ☮️
