The tough decisions!

Today I made a phone call to better my life. I called for Therapy and I feel like I'm defeated and one must protect one's own life and I asked for help. This last weekend was a wake up call for me and I scared my family and frankly, I scared myself.

My self harm to get some sleep made my husband to call 911 because I took too much drugs so I could get a good nights sleep but I over did it and woke up in the Emergency Room hooked up to an IV. It scared me.

Therapy in the past has helped and I know this time it will be better. I never want to put my family in a situation like I had this past weekend. I don't want to self harm myself again. I need to talk to someone who can help me deal with all the crap within my head.

This past weekend was a cry for help and I'm glad I'm strong enough to ask for it. Take Care, Peace!

We can make Change!

When you think of a "Scout" what comes to mind? Do you think of a person recruiting high school athletes for college sports? There is another "Scout", watching our children if they are the right commodity for sex trafficking. They are out there preying on our children right as I write this. They are everywhere, not just in bad parts of town. As a community, we can make a difference in a child's life to advocate for them and make our communities safer. If we choke the demand, less of our children will be exploited.

 The average age of a child sex trafficker is 13 years of age. Children as young as 8 years of age have been recruited into this industry. Please become a voice to share awareness. 

Please educate!
