Dear mom & dad...

Dear Mom and Dad: I know we’ve had some pretty hard 5 and a half years. Specially, this past 10 months we've been through hell and back. In everything that’s going through, you’ve battled a lot in accepting me with my condition. Having a daughter with major depressive disorder and general anxiety wasn’t part of the plan. I know it wasn’t, and still isn’t easy, to listen to your daughter saying she rather be dead, or that she can’t get out of bed because living life is just to painful. Clearly to see me walking with a cane or unable to get out of bed or with certain body parts of the size of an orange isn't make it any easier. I can see you suffering every time I'm in pain, and desperately searching for ways to ease the symptoms of my physical chronic illnesses. Thank you for trying to make me sleep at night wrapping me with a lot of blankets like if I was a burrito or sending me flowers via Whatsapp to brighten my day. You’ve done your best in trying to understand me...
