Al anon is a great resource for people who have family members that struggle with addiction if anyone needs help coping or wants to hear other people who are affected by the same things
That's the first thing I noticed about Eryn. But I completely understand because I did the same thing for a long time until I finally went into therapy. It has to be addressed at some point or Eryn could go down the same road.
I love this. My mom and dad are both addicts. I grew up in the system. I ended up into addiction myself. But November 3rd 2019 I celebrated my 1 year clean and sober.
my moms currently in federal prison due to drugs and she’s been out of my life for almost 8 years I’m 16 now, and my aunt has taken me in, I am beyond grateful for her.
Sofia Martinez: My mom is in jail right now for domestic violence but also is a drug user I’m so happy that you have your aunt 😊 my grandpa adopted me and my two sisters I’m the youngest I’m 14 . Drugs have made my mom schizophrenic which is a disease cause from using drugs and bipolar you are so brave for sharing this Sofia .
Very vulnerable for you to share so much of your private life with all of us, but I think you did it in an informative and respectful way. From someone who has lots of family issues and struggles as well, it's nice to know we're not alone. Thank you for the sacrifices that you've made for Eryn!
True I teach in a very low income school and you cant expect kids who experience trauma and abuse daily to ace their tests. You have to ensure their basic needs are met first, most of my students come to school hungry and sleep deprived. I try to be very patient with their emotional outbursts and short attention spans, that is how their processing chaos.
Amanda Motion I’m glad your students have someone who is compassionate and understanding to the fact that they are facing life challenges that impede their ability to learn ❤️
@@aereid6 if only the world had more people like you that views it that way. Your students are lucky to have that, bc most don't at home. A great teacher can make a big impact on a kids life.
And beautiful that she views it that way. Many in her position are prone to thinking that if they can ‘handle’ the situation, another can as well as them.
Say what you want about Laura's past mistakes, but she's definitely a better person now than she used to be. She's doing something right now because look at how happy that young girl is ❤️
RedRebel2017 why is that? Why should someone be known for their past mistakes? Do you live everyday in the past, or do you live everyday for the future? You learn from your mistakes and move on, not one of us is perfect.
QUEENBEE200384 He’s just speaking facts, you can kiss her ass all you want. But most people aren’t gonna remember her good side, their gonna remember her past. That’s why her channels going downhill now.
My son had to go to Foster care. It was horrible. I worked my ass to get him back. Thank God I woke up! I am so grateful to be alive and have my baby boy back!!!!!
I'm clean 7 months off meth. I've been addicted to drugs since I was 13 and I'm 26 now. I take Suboxone now and it has saved me so much. Thanks for sharing your families story.
That's exactly what I said! Do I need to bring some Hillbilly slappin' to somebody?! This is serious, you may not LIKE it, but it's really REAL! JMHO.... 😘❤🇱🇷
Ty has a heart of gold. You do not come across guys like that very often. He’s very selfless and has the ability to see passed his own need and wants. He’s a keeper Laura ❤️❤️
Watching Ty talk about her and how it wasn’t even a question and how Accepting he was of the situation and knowing that it was the addiction and not the person is so heartwarming
Never look back! No matter what happens! You were strong enough to make it through the flames, and you’re stronger because of it! There is nothing in life that you can’t conquer now! Don’t ever forget it! 💙
My mom was a drug addict all my childhood, my dad is still an alcoholic, I was forced to raise my 4 siblings at the age of 10. I have always felt like I needed to keep it a secret because people would judge me for it. I love your honestly and openness
This is the realest video ever put out by a beauty Influencer. This proves Laura is the real mvp. Alcoholism is very real and you dont have any idea the damage it causes to family. I love you Laura.
It takes immense courage to step away from comfort (however harmful) and embrace pain. Scars aren’t a sign of weakness, they are a symbol of how strong people had to be for so long 💚 You started kicking butt 4 years ago and have been doing it ever since! You’re a badass
Wow.... The comments section is filled with people saying that they quit and doing better now. This is so inspiring. Thank you Laura... I'm 16 from Malaysia... No drugs experience but still I'm so proud of you and the people in the comments section
Laura, As a mental health counselor at an addiction outpatient and an ACOA (adult child of an alcoholic or addict) thank you for using your platform to talk about addiction, recovery and being a supportive family member... keep moving forward and keep the conversation going
This is my second time watching this and I STILL don't understand why there are so many dislikes. Coming from someone who had the same childhood and had to have a family member raise me, give me the life I couldn't have had otherwise... this hits deep and you guys are amazing people.
Not true at all! My mother has 7 children (6 daughters and 1 son). Only one became an addict, our only brother. We all lived the same life, witnessed the same addictions, the same struggles. I'm the second oldest and seen and lived much worse than my middle sibling or the younger siblings (our mother was sober by then). People get effected differently, and addiction doesn't discriminate...this includes age and what order you were born.
i’m going to be 100% honest and say that i really lost interest in your channel for a while but this video has really made me have so much respect for you . thank you for sharing your story and being so raw with millions of people , and sharing such a personal part of your life . all of you guys are very brave , especially Eryn . i was emotional the whole time because this kind of hits close to home .. it’s incredibly hard being so young and watching your mother become an addict and have your life change completely because of it . Eryn is incredibly strong and she’s very lucky to have family like you guys that are able to take her in and support her through everything . you did an amazing thing and i genuinely wish you all the best . 🙏🏼❤️❤️
From a young woman whose mother neglected me as a child due to alcohol addiction is difficult. Thank you for sharing this video. I have underlying mental health problems due to my childhood and my mother's addiction. This is so important to me.
This is a big comeback for you. Thank you for letting you’re platform and personal life possibly help someone else’s life. I grew up around addiction and can heavily relate to you.
My mom is addicted to meth and I live with my grandma. Props to ya Laura, people like you and my grandma will never know how grateful people who are in our position truly are.
Eryn looks just like her mom. Eryn is so lucky to have you all & you & Ty are lucky to have her. I hope your sister is well & on the road to recovery. XOXO
My mom is 4 years clean and was in jail during my pregnancy. The hardest thing we both had to deal with because it was always us against the world. Shes now an amazing grandma that lives with us and helps with my now 4 year old daughter. She getting emotional all the time thinking of what she did and how shes gotten better. Love will overcome!
6 years clean here. I lost everything. But in the process of getting my son back, I found myself. I'm very proud of myself and how far I've come. But you have to want it badly enough for yourself. No one can do it for you. Thank you and your family for being so open about everything y'all are going through. Like your sister said, if her story can reach just one person. You guys are amazing.
I have been struggling with addiction since 2017 and I could never string together more than 90 days..... BUT im celebrating 8 months clean on the 18th of August!! Its amazing what the Lord can do when you trust in him and work your program!! ✝️ Congratulations to your sister!! I pray she continues down the right path and that her legal situation is worked out the way God intends! It is not easy to stay sober but id rather do the work than be back in the misery of my addiction EVER again. P.S. IM SO GLAD YOU TALKED ABOUT ADDICTION. You are helping the stigma around addiction. You are Lauralee and no one would have ever guessed that addiction affected you and your family! Your sister was RIGHT when she said its a DISEASE. We don't choose to be addicts but we can choose to get sober and help others who are struggling!!!! ❤❤
08/10/2008 is my clean date... 11yrs I have been clean... it wasnt easy but my it had to be done. My son is 13y.o and thankfully he was too young to remember. Recovery gave me the tools to live and to teach him the tools to not go though what I did. What I cant do alone, we can do together ♡
Laura Lee. This was everything. I have a very similar family story. I have mad love for you and your family. Just another reason I adore you. Thank you for sharing. It helps those of us who are impacted by addition and abuse not feel alone in this world. ❤
Now THIS video needs to be trending... things that actually matter? I love this video and I love that Eryn now has a loving home environment to help her through the hardness of being a teenager 💖
I'm so sorry for the loss of your sister. Addiction is pure evil. Your niece & nephew are fortunate to have you to keep their mom's memory alive and let the world know that she was so much more than just an addict. Prayers, love, & light to you & your family.
This is why I’ve always loved Laura, you should always be able to tell your story without people thinking “it’s to gain sympathy.” Thank you ALL for sharing all this, you didn’t have to. Much love.
I absolutely LOVE what Laura said to her sister that I think was incredibly meaningful that “We’re right here waiting for you” for her sister to come back to her family ♥️♥️♥️
i've gained a whole new level of respect for u... this is such a good thing to share to show how common it is and how much it effects people. my name is also Eryn with a y :) and I also had to go live with my aunt n uncle as a teen because of my mom's addiction, and mental illness, not to mention her $ issues. I suffered from addiction issues myself when I was young. it's a real thing and I praise u for taking her in n offering her a good life. u r changing her life forever. 🖤🖤
My mother was a drug addict as well, and I wish I had an aunt or older family member to take me in and help me out. So I wish the best for eryn and I hope she takes full advantage of the opportunities you give to her by providing her with this new lifestyle
People can be so cruel and judgmental. I love how I just scrolled forever and didn't see one negative comment! So much love and positivity! So many inspired! No ones life is perfect and people mistakes and bad choices sometimes doesn't mean they are bad person. Thank you for sharing Laura! You're videos are always some of my favorites!
Thank you for your story Laura! Growing up in a broken house, with step parents, half siblings, and addiction I feel for this. People always wanna assume that “you tubers” have this marvelous, care free life and it’s not like that. You are a real person going through real life sh!t. Thank you again for your story. Erin is the best.
I cant even express how important it is that you made Eryn a part of this video. The validation you gave her in getting to tell her own story is amazing. You and Tyler are such great people.
As much as I wasn’t a fan of Laura, I love what you’re doing for your niece. I really appreciate that you are taking care of her and giving her the love she needs. 💜💙
This just goes to show “you never know what a person is going through” day in and day out y’all are so bright, happy, put together. Y’all have your hardships, demons, and messes and I 100% know the vulnerability y’all just showed us helped someone somewhere. That being said, congratulations for being in such a healthy place to do so. So much admiration for all of you.
I found my mom 6 years ago dead in her own vomit while she was watching my 1 month old son. She hid being addicted to drugs my whole life. If you are needing help, REACH OUT.
They were the hardest years of my life to try and understand. Thanks for the kind words. All it takes is for people to speak up about mental illness and addiction. People should never feel alone like my mother did.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’ve never commented on a video before, but I’m an ER nurse and I see so many parents and children stuck in the cycle because of lack of support, and it’s amazing that you’re able to do that for your sister and niece.
“one person may use, but the whole family suffers”
somebody needs to scream this from the roof tops
NIKAYLA it angers me, addict had ruined a part of my life in the past. Never fucking again!
100%
My family are going through this now and have been for years.
Al anon is a great resource for people who have family members that struggle with addiction if anyone needs help coping or wants to hear other people who are affected by the same things
You could say that with most severe diseases though
The way that Eryn uses humor to mask the troubling past hits me on a personal level..
That's the first thing I noticed about Eryn. But I completely understand because I did the same thing for a long time until I finally went into therapy. It has to be addressed at some point or Eryn could go down the same road.
@@JesusIsKing1980 i started therapy but i still do that, what have you learned now that helps you not do that? like, wat exactly is the problem?
i do this every single time
True
It hit me on a very personal level
I love this. My mom and dad are both addicts. I grew up in the system. I ended up into addiction myself. But November 3rd 2019 I celebrated my 1 year clean and sober.
kali horner u are doing great, keep that good things and work up:)
congrats! I'm so happy for you!

Two of my favorite TH-camrs! I love the positivity.
Thank you for your real life video
You and your beautiful soul...
I am about 40 days clean off heroin.
Congrats! Keep it pushing! You Matter.. You are Special.. You are Worth it ❤
Yeeeeey keep it up love you girl ❤
Keep it up kid xx
Every day you're getting stronger 💪
Congratulations!! Keep it up! ❤️
“Your future is not the situation you are in right now.” That spoke volumes to me.
Desiree Smith your current situation isn’t your future destination 💕
I’m 13 years sober... recovery is possible and so is staying clean.
Well done❤️❤️keep going and u are amazing for staying clean☺️☺️
congrats ❤️stay strong
Melisa congratulations, I’m so happy for you ☺️❤️
@@elizacamryn is right

How unselfish of Tyler and Laura to raise her niece. Special people right there. Addiction affects everyone.
(selfless)
a child's grades doesn't determine their intelligence, I love that you said that 10000% true

I needed to hear this
Best video you’ve ever made. You’re shedding a light on such a big issue in a lot of people’s lives that no one ever wants to talk about.
Agree. Hands down.
which is so crazy! Why don't people talk about adoption more?!
“We all handled the childhood differently” - such a huge thing no one discusses
And beautiful that she views it that way. Many in her position are prone to thinking that if they can ‘handle’ the situation, another can as well as them.
FINALLY a TH-camr bringing awareness to addiction just passed two years clean from heroin October 1st
U go u queen🥳🤩🥰❤️💙💜🧡💚
That’s my birthday!
Fanny Quen :/
Tailor Ploof so proud of you!!! You are an amazing person and deserve so much more in life. Keep up the good work. You’re gonna do great things! 💕

Way to go! Keep up the good work!! You're an amazing human being never forget that ❤️

CONGRATULATIONS!! I’m proud of you!
Wonderful news!!!! Every clean day is a huge victory for you and those who love you! Keep it up!!!!🎉🏅🌟🤗
Congratulations!!!!
Say what you want about Laura's past mistakes, but she's definitely a better person now than she used to be. She's doing something right now because look at how happy that young girl is ❤️
@RedRebel2017 she shouldn't
RedRebel2017 why is that? Why should someone be known for their past mistakes? Do you live everyday in the past, or do you live everyday for the future? You learn from your mistakes and move on, not one of us is perfect.

@@softtears6775 she gained 30k subscriber from this video so "downhill" isnt what i would say 👀
She’s happy because of all the cash and fame she’s gonna get
Let’s talk about how mom is strong enough and loves her daughter enough to acknowledge her problem and be grateful to you guys for helping her.
My son had to go to Foster care. It was horrible. I worked my ass to get him back. Thank God I woke up! I am so grateful to be alive and have my baby boy back!!!!!

As a social worker, I started crying the second your sister told you she was grateful. That’s such a blessing.
I'm clean 7 months off meth. I've been addicted to drugs since I was 13 and I'm 26 now. I take Suboxone now and it has saved me so much. Thanks for sharing your families story.
I am so proud of you
Congrats! Keep fighting, you can do it💪🏻
I’m proud! You got this! ❤️you are so strong!!😊
Congrats girl. Careful with suboxone. It's just replacing a drug with another drug and is just as addicting and withdrawals are worse than heroin.
@@jennifermariani8875 yeah i know. I've been taking them for almost 6 years. I just finally got off meth and it's been keeping me off of it this time.
Giving a person A Home is the most honorable and life changing act someone can achieve in their life . God bless you
I am 6 years clean from heroin. I always talk of my story.. thank you for all of this
Alison Roettenbacher congratulations
Wow! Congrats!

Diane Hensley seriously!!! It’s like almost 3k. Wtf
I guess there is a lot of people that don’t believe addiction just happens
Sadly
That's exactly what I said! Do I need to bring some Hillbilly slappin' to somebody?! This is serious, you may not LIKE it, but it's really REAL! JMHO.... 😘❤🇱🇷

7 years clean from heroin. Prayers for your sister and your family.
2 years here! Congrats!

as a social worker this makes me happy
lesly tirado - I worked for CPS for years. I can relate since I didn’t see a lot of success stories. Sadly.
I am as well. Have been for quite some time and never plan to do anything else. more awareness (like this video) is so crucial for this world
Same, often times individuals can't find a KCG for temporary placement during our investigation. So happy for Eryn and her family
Yay for social workers! I am too!
for all of the people commenting about being clean, you go! keep your head up high. you can do it!
don’t let anyone put you down!!❤️
Thank you!
Theres only one thing in this world that makes it all worth it and thats seeing my babies
Ty has a heart of gold. You do not come across guys like that very often. He’s very selfless and has the ability to see passed his own need and wants. He’s a keeper Laura ❤️❤️
Thinking the same, what a keeper!
I’m almost 7 years clean and sober from alcohol meth and pills. Also from suicide attempts
You're an amazing person, never forget that you are worth it! ❤️

Hailey Glende you are a hero nothing to be ashamed about quite the opposite. All families struggle with something.
This is the realest video ever put out by a beauty Influencer. This proves Laura is the real mvp. Alcoholism is very real and you dont have any idea the damage it causes to family. I love you Laura.
I self harmed for 6 years. I havent hurt myself in almost 4 years.
That’s amazing!!! I hope that you’re very proud of yourself because it’s not easy!!
It takes immense courage to step away from comfort (however harmful) and embrace pain. Scars aren’t a sign of weakness, they are a symbol of how strong people had to be for so long 💚 You started kicking butt 4 years ago and have been doing it ever since! You’re a badass
4 years that’s amazing keep up the good work
Stay strong luv💞Im vv happy for you
That’s amazing! I self harmed for 6-7 years, I celebrated being 1 year clean in May. 🎉

That's beautiful!
“She’s the light of our lives”🥺🥺🥺 I cried. This is such a beautiful thing
This is my second time watching this and I STILL don't understand why there are so many dislikes. Coming from someone who had the same childhood and had to have a family member raise me, give me the life I couldn't have had otherwise... this hits deep and you guys are amazing people.
The middle child always goes through it and no one notices
Agree!
& the youngest
i don’t know, i’m the oldest and i’ve struggled the most with behaviour, drugs, alcohol and mental stability. i don’t think it’s just the middle kid
Not true at all! My mother has 7 children (6 daughters and 1 son). Only one became an addict, our only brother. We all lived the same life, witnessed the same addictions, the same struggles. I'm the second oldest and seen and lived much worse than my middle sibling or the younger siblings (our mother was sober by then). People get effected differently, and addiction doesn't discriminate...this includes age and what order you were born.
well maybe more often but don’t say always that’s so not true

Eryn looks just like her mom. Eryn is so lucky to have you all & you & Ty are lucky to have her. I hope your sister is well & on the road to recovery. XOXO
i’m literally sobbing. i love with my grandparents because my mother is an addict. you’ve done wrong in the past, but this video means a lot
Maddy Geist I’m sorry you’ve had to go through that, Maddy. ❤️ But glad you’ve got your grandparents by your side. Hang in there.
My mom is 4 years clean and was in jail during my pregnancy. The hardest thing we both had to deal with because it was always us against the world. Shes now an amazing grandma that lives with us and helps with my now 4 year old daughter. She getting emotional all the time thinking of what she did and how shes gotten better. Love will overcome!
6 years clean here. I lost everything. But in the process of getting my son back, I found myself. I'm very proud of myself and how far I've come. But you have to want it badly enough for yourself. No one can do it for you. Thank you and your family for being so open about everything y'all are going through. Like your sister said, if her story can reach just one person. You guys are amazing.
That's amazing. You can do it. Go on
R.E.S.P.E.C.T never really liked her but this is another level of respect
I agree
this makes me see you in an entirely different light

I have been struggling with addiction since 2017 and I could never string together more than 90 days..... BUT im celebrating 8 months clean on the 18th of August!! Its amazing what the Lord can do when you trust in him and work your program!! ✝️ Congratulations to your sister!! I pray she continues down the right path and that her legal situation is worked out the way God intends! It is not easy to stay sober but id rather do the work than be back in the misery of my addiction EVER again.
P.S. IM SO GLAD YOU TALKED ABOUT ADDICTION. You are helping the stigma around addiction. You are Lauralee and no one would have ever guessed that addiction affected you and your family! Your sister was RIGHT when she said its a DISEASE. We don't choose to be addicts but we can choose to get sober and help others who are struggling!!!! ❤❤
You go girl ❤️
I’m 25 months clean & sober. I now have a 4 month old baby boy. Love this!!!!
Lauren Moody stay strong 💗
congratulations and stay cleans and strong 💪🏽 love and happiness for you and your little one 🥰🥰
I grew up in foster care... and I thank god for my god parents May they both Rest In Peace they saved my life.
Many hugs sent your way. You are strong, intelligent, and unique in every possible way. Continue to shine and know many love you.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
08/10/2008 is my clean date... 11yrs I have been clean... it wasnt easy but my it had to be done. My son is 13y.o and thankfully he was too young to remember. Recovery gave me the tools to live and to teach him the tools to not go though what I did. What I cant do alone, we can do together ♡
CONGRATS hun... ❤
I’m proud of you! Keep fighting that battle beautiful ❤️
This reminded me of my mom she’s been 10 years clean I’m happy for you congratulations
YOU ARE SO STRONG!!
Jessica Raynor 💛💛
Laura Lee. This was everything. I have a very similar family story. I have mad love for you and your family. Just another reason I adore you. Thank you for sharing. It helps those of us who are impacted by addition and abuse not feel alone in this world. ❤

Tay Bee wow you are awesome
Congrats Tay Bee keep strong. This video made me emotional too!
YOU GOT THIS!! I will have 8 years of heroin in November. Keep seeing I know you got this.
Now THIS video needs to be trending... things that actually matter? I love this video and I love that Eryn now has a loving home environment to help her through the hardness of being a teenager 💖
I love Laura’s relationship omg they both seem so mature and healthy and the perfect example of what a relationship should be :)
My mom (or biological aunt) took me and my brother in when I was born for the same reason. This is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
I’m 6.5 years clean from a heroin and cocaine addiction. I really love that you decided to share this with us. 💜
Tamika congratulations on 6.5 years I’m 9 years sober from heroine it was one of the hardest things to do but my kids literally saved me
Tamika congratulations 🎉
I’m 4 years clean from H as well!!!! We’ve got this!!!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Marin Melton thank you!!!
My sister died and I have her daughter and her son and I wish my sister could tell her story 😭
I'm so sorry to hear that
I'm so sorry for the loss of your sister. Addiction is pure evil. Your niece & nephew are fortunate to have you to keep their mom's memory alive and let the world know that she was so much more than just an addict. Prayers, love, & light to you & your family.
omg please take good care of them and god bless you❤
You are so strong for doing that. God bless you for doing such a kind thing for your sister.
Omg I’m very sorry for you 😭you’re so strong ❤️
This is why I’ve always loved Laura, you should always be able to tell your story without people thinking “it’s to gain sympathy.” Thank you ALL for sharing all this, you didn’t have to. Much love.
LITERALLLLYYYYY
ALLWAYS
LOVE
LAURA!!!!
This is so raw 😭😢 this just shows the kind of people you and Tyler are. Love you guys and May god continue to bless you and your family.
I absolutely LOVE what Laura said to her sister that I think was incredibly meaningful that “We’re right here waiting for you” for her sister to come back to her family ♥️♥️♥️
😭♥️
i've gained a whole new level of respect for u... this is such a good thing to share to show how common it is and how much it effects people. my name is also Eryn with a y :) and I also had to go live with my aunt n uncle as a teen because of my mom's addiction, and mental illness, not to mention her $ issues. I suffered from addiction issues myself when I was young. it's a real thing and I praise u for taking her in n offering her a good life. u r changing her life forever. 🖤🖤
My mother was a drug addict as well, and I wish I had an aunt or older family member to take me in and help me out. So I wish the best for eryn and I hope she takes full advantage of the opportunities you give to her by providing her with this new lifestyle
'She's the light of our lives" I busted out in tears.
People can be so cruel and judgmental. I love how I just scrolled forever and didn't see one negative comment! So much love and positivity! So many inspired! No ones life is perfect and people mistakes and bad choices sometimes doesn't mean they are bad person. Thank you for sharing Laura! You're videos are always some of my favorites!
Thank you for your story Laura! Growing up in a broken house, with step parents, half siblings, and addiction I feel for this. People always wanna assume that “you tubers” have this marvelous, care free life and it’s not like that. You are a real person going through real life sh!t. Thank you again for your story. Erin is the best.
I’m so glad you allowed your sister to speak her truth and share her story. Soooo many parents/kids can relate to your families story 💖
I cant even express how important it is that you made Eryn a part of this video. The validation you gave her in getting to tell her own story is amazing. You and Tyler are such great people.
I am a substance abuse counselor and I'm proud of you.
Not everyone may be a fan of Laura lee, but this is a very selfless thing to do. Prayers your family finds peace of mind!
As much as I wasn’t a fan of Laura, I love what you’re doing for your niece. I really appreciate that you are taking care of her and giving her the love she needs. 💜💙
I was the same. Now I'm a HUGE fan. Huge.
This just goes to show “you never know what a person is going through” day in and day out y’all are so bright, happy, put together. Y’all have your hardships, demons, and messes and I 100% know the vulnerability y’all just showed us helped someone somewhere. That being said, congratulations for being in such a healthy place to do so. So much admiration for all of you.
I found my mom 6 years ago dead in her own vomit while she was watching my 1 month old son. She hid being addicted to drugs my whole life. If you are needing help, REACH OUT.
They were the hardest years of my life to try and understand. Thanks for the kind words. All it takes is for people to speak up about mental illness and addiction. People should never feel alone like my mother did.
God bless you. Sending you a big virtual hug.
Omg! I’am so sorry you had to go through that!
Wow what an experience. I couldn’t imagine the trauma you went through. Sending you love
Sending prayers your way 🙏🏻❤️
You didn’t owe us this explanation, but you care enough about us-and the cause-to share, and I greatly appreciated it. You and Ty are good people. 👍🏻
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’ve never commented on a video before, but I’m an ER nurse and I see so many parents and children stuck in the cycle because of lack of support, and it’s amazing that you’re able to do that for your sister and niece.
