She had to go underground, (to hell, you might say), physically and psychologically, before she could recognize her own hand in her troubles. I must do as E.

> I will keep you and all who babble here in my heart.** You write so poetically. I do love the name Moosehaps. It makes me think of blundering sweet Moose who has good intentions, but always seems to get himself in trouble. Hmmmm an idea for a children's story. I wonder if you mind if I use it? I"m taking a children's story writing course. Babbling Brooke is a good name for this board. I haven't heard of that Ereshkigal character, but will look her up.
By the way, what is your "diagnosis" and what meds are you on?
