Bio
*** I am really sorry but I am giving up all my site roles as of November due to my health issues and personal life taking over. So I probably wont be responding to messages. ***

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn. 




-Harriet Beecher Stowe

Such an amazing person that was willing to help me through everything and stay with me. She really helped me through a rough spot i am forever grateful.
really nice and understanding with almost immediate responses, kind of wish it didn't feel rushed though.
Very kind and thoughful!
She really helped me through my panic attack. My mind was off the cause as she led me through the five senses which slowed my heart rate down and calmed my nerves. I really felt like I was in a therapy session!
She was patient and understanding.
SHE IS THE BEST!!!
I was frustated when I started talking to her. But now I am happy. She is a big bubble of happiness who can distribute smiles all around. I am glad that I found her. If you havent talked to her yet, you are missing out a very great person. If you are reading this to know if she is good, then I recommend her as one of the best in stress related talks.
great great listener. Easy to talk to. (:
