My friends at Alyssum have been compassionate and supportive.  When I come here, I am doubting “all things me.”  This time I was able to recognize what will be most beneficial for my continued emotional growth.

I am leaving with such a generous & gracious support team from Alyssum.  When they say “keep in touch” and other terms of endearment – I feel it, it’s real.  That is new to me. Thank you all.
