I COULDN’T SAVE MY OWN CHILD; WHAT WILL SAVE ME?
I remember how I felt so useful and so hopeful. I was elated that my mother had turned a corner. And then within a flash of those thoughts, I was literally “flat on the floor” pounding it with anguish. I wanted to pull out every single hair on my head!
