Louise & James - Time is a Healer

A teenage girl foot resting on her dad's leg

This picture stirs a memory within me…

This leg belongs to a child who once was so afraid of the simplest of touch, especially a touch from her “forever dad”…

We couldn’t snuggle, we couldn’t put plasters on her and we couldn’t cut her nails - she would scream in fear and cry. We can’t begin to imagine the horrors that caused this reaction but nevertheless, they were there…

Today this gorgeous young human chose (!) to put her foot on her dad’s legs… in a moment of RELAXATION!

Now this picture stirs a new memory within me…

The memories and scars will always be there, but time is a healer and those horrific memories begin to fade…

Love is the answer. Love is always the answer!
