    Susannah, I used to watch you and Trinny Woodall and loved that show. I think I felt a bit more of an affinity to you in that show. I love the way to communicate to all of us, so naturally and the honesty you show. I grew up in Canada but was born in Rutland; a triplet and we were the youngest of eight. My biological father left us when we were around three or four because he could not handle it. I was separated from them all when I was almost seven and taken to Canada to live. Agreeably, there are things in life that happen to us and it can affect the way you think or the things you do. I never resented my mother for giving me up or was angry, you understand the circumstances. I admire your honesty regarding being a recovering alcoholic. Thank you for sharing your home and a small part of your life with us. You are amazing!

      The fact that you took care of your mother until she dies, regardless of the truly appalling things she said to you, means you are a beautiful, forgiving human being. Your mother - sadly - was not. There may have been reasons for the way she was and the abuse she dished out to you. It doesn't matter now, let it go. You've proved yourself to be a wonderful, caring person Carolyn. Chin up now, be proud, live the rest of your life knowing that you are a treasure amongst women.🤗
