Adoption,Addiction, PTSD,Child Loss, Grief,Faith

I lived a life of trauma and pain ,I was born in Newfoundland Canada to teenage parents and immediately given up for adoption. Was adopted by an American couple. They divorced when I was four my mom married a Jamaican man. When I was 12 years old to my stepfather pulled out a gun and shot my mother and grandparents in front of my brother and I We ran out the back door so we survived and my mother survived and my grandmother survived. But I had PTSD from that. I started drinking at 14 I was assaulted at 15. I weighed 500 lb by the time I was 27 and I had gastric bypass and lost 300 lb. Had to have multiple surgeries after that became addicted to opiates. In 2021 my youngest daughter Amber died from Fentanyl poisoning unexpectedly which devastated me! I am sober and have been for 4 years. It is my Faith that keeps me going!!! I just want to let other people know that it's possible to get through these things! They're horrible but you can get through these things!
