As I'm doing all this, I've adopted a mentality of "I am serving my family". This is part of our life, it sucks a lot, and more problems are always going to get piled on top - but we have great support, we have friends bringing us meals, taking the kids, helping however they can. I feel lucky, in the scheme of the world and and know that in 5 or 10 years we'll talk about this and I'll think "damn, it wasn't really that hard" - partly due to the way time softens everything and partly because it is all an opportunity to grow. I love my family. Please give yours the same.

I've been following your articles for long now and I feel that this is the best sum up of everything that you've been through these hard times.

I believe it's not that you only learn when you experience something but the bitter or sweet any type other people's experiences teach you a lot. I respect that you shared everything here so honestly and I also feel grateful.

Thanks.

This is very much how I feel too.

I really appreciate that you share this with us, @hodlpleb. It connects me to parts of my humanity that don't get engaged very often.

We're thinking about you and your family, we're rooting for you, and we're proud of you.
