About

I am #foreverblakesmama. He is forever 28. Blake struggled with addiction for approximately 14 years.

We were both terrified for a long time. I never tired of fighting for him by providing emotional support and encouragement. I learned, somewhere along the way, that I could not get in the actual ring with him, that I had to let him fight the actual fight. I learned that the best thing I could do for him is to love him and love myself by living. I started doing that just over two years ago. I know he wants me to continue living and making a difference for others – he wouldn’t want anything less. I know that because he told me how proud he was of me. So, I’m going to do my best and part of that is going to be through this blog.

At least we’re both terrified no more.
