My goodness! So haunting, but that ritualistic release turned a tragedy into redemption. This is a heroic act that makes me continue to believe that good wins, when we let it. Brava & thank you for a powerful, beautiful piece.

Thank you Ellen. I enjoy reading your work very much. At Juke, we're all brave. Writing takes courage and stamina. Creating meaningful relationships and being able to walk away from messed up people is an act of survival, an important turn of events towards self discovery and acceptance, without being judgmental. An alcoholic rarely makes a good life for themselves let alone their children, I'm afraid. In addition, it is never the child's job to rescue that parent. Thanks again. Constance
