When in your life did you know you were not alone?

[kit_mcclellan]

When I first started this journal and joint this community. I met others who too didn't have one parent or the other. And whose lives got turned upside down too. Like mine was.

I met Kara. Her mum died too and her dad's gone somewhere too. Not that my real dad's gone. But the one I thought was my dad for 12 years is.
We're really good friends now. Kara and I.

And Jordan. Her mum was killed too. Like mine. And she did a DNA test with her dad too. Though she said she didn't look at it. I had to. Cause of the judge. She didn't cause she already was an adult then.

And there were others too. Still are.

That's when I knew I'm not alone.
There were other people before, of cause. People who said they were there for me. Like Duncan. And Gemma. And Laura. And Hazel and Tim for a while. And Colin. And even Toby and Holly, in a way. Lots of people. But that wasn't the same. They'll never know how I'm feeling. They just can't.
It's only on here that I met people who know. Cause they went through the same thing.
