Stories of Recovery and Healing.

Hello All,

How are you?

Does anyone have good news stories of their own lives..... after bad MI stories ?

I would like very much to read of little steps in recovery……no matter where your journey is. Everyone is so original and courageous.

I am very mindful I do not want to trigger anyone. If you just want to write….......

"Dear PeppiPatty, I am now crossing the road……."

that is gutsy enough for me !!

In the 30s and 40s, in America, my Grandparents were well known lawyers. They started up a legal aid type fund for men in death row. I still have a couple of letters that a man wrote to my Grandmother in the 1940s !

In 1953, the Rosenbergs were executed for something that they didn’t do and my Grandfather advised the many lawyers who were defending them. When these two poor people were executed, my Grandfather had a nervous breakdown on the unfairness of it all. He never properly recovered. The American Government executed this lovely married couple of selling secrets to the Russians. But of course, they didn’t ..it was because of the heightened anxiety of other things happening in America at that time.

My husband and I have contacted the Granddaughter of The Rosenbergs and am emailing her. Did you know that the Rosenbergs Ethel and Julius Rosenberg had two sons who were passed from family to family. People were too scared to care for them. They ended up being adopted and when they grew up, they started up a fund for children in similar circumstances than what they went through.

What a wonderful story after such bad bad tragedy.
