Hi Lauren,
Thanks for you comment and encouragement! I appreciate your kind words and empowering affirmation 🙂
I am usually a very private person and not easy sharing so openly, but if I’m going to do it, I’m going to do it full out!
You having gone through it gives your comment more weight and significance.
Here’s to coming out on top! Thanks again Lauren!

Denny, first… before all else: I have to commend you for being so open and honest with your situation. It’s often hard to believe this, but by you sharing your honest story, you are able to help so many more people. This world needs more of people who are able to be transparent, like yourself. So take a moment to pat yourself on the back about that … because there are more people out there who CAN’T do what you just did, than those who can. Secondly… I resonate a lot to your story. I am grateful now that I’m “out of the weeds,” currently now but I have been in your shoes before. In fact, it wasn’t that long ago that I was there. It’s not a good feeling, and depression is real. I get it. It also sounds like, from all all these replies your blog elicited, there are more that can relate to you than can’t.
My words of encouragement aren’t going to be much different than what was already said: keep on keeping’ on. YOU’RE DOING IT! I’ve never met you, I’ve only followed your blog, but if it means anything, I am proud of you… for what you’ve accomplished already. But this is just the start… you’re just getting going. Keep up the prayers, keep up the affirmation, and most importantly… GIVE YOURSELF SOME GRACE! Go easy on Denny…. he’s a hard worker and he’s gonna come out on top.

Hi Denny!
Your post will help and inspire many people. So many are struggling right now – financially, health-related, family issues, etc.
Your honesty is the heart of who you are and why people rely on you. That can be overwhelming at times, but take it one day at a time, Denny. I’m sorry that you are going through hard times right now, but staying strong in your commitment to yourself and your family will see you through these times. Deep breaths and small steps will lead to accomplishments.
When times seem to hard to overcome, of which have been several through the years, my husband and I remind each other that this, too, shall pass as long as we have each other. One of my lean-on quotes during these times is by Vivian Greene, “Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass…It’s about learning to dance in the rain.”
You can do this, Denny! You are learning the steps!
You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.
All the best!
Milissa Neirotti
