Listen as I get insight into her traumatic experience from Carol. Grief is a process, not an event. It was a year ago during this time the traumatic experience for me took a turn for the worse. I discovered the man that I purchased a house with and who promised to spend the rest of our lives together was keeping plenty of secrets. I was yelled at for accidentally opening mail and for revealing I made more money than he did. His raft was unbearable then. I am currently, working through the pain and grief of his behavior. But, I am grateful for the tribe that has held me up throughout. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/allisonstreet/message
