After much, much thought... we sold our 7 bedroom house. Yes, it was a BEAUTIFUL house. However, I had so many negative memories there. So much had happened in the 2 1/2 years that we lived there. I can't list them all but some of the "highlights" are my son's illness and psychosis, flooding, my adopted kids freaking out and leaving, my husband and I getting Covid there, lock down, and so, so, so much more. My memories are so foggy and I used to remember it all. Some, I CAN'T mention. We had a foster son there that was considered a level 4. Very high needs from so many negative behaviors. He was very abusive and had to be removed. He's literally not allowed to live at regular homes anymore for safety reasons.
I'm currently working with a Christian therapist that specializes in trauma and ptsd. She's been helping me understand the brain. This video really helped me understand it.
We had 16 kids in our beautiful home and we absolutely had a blast. Until Covid hit. I don't know if it was stress. I know the 2 girls that attended public school (which was terrible for them), absolutely hated learning from home.
Through all of this my oldest son went into psychosis, had terrible doctors that took advantage of him, and we were in for the fight of our life.
I think sharing this here and documenting what I can, may help me to process it all. It's a very long story.
