And a good job of it you did. I know what you mean about the exposure backlash, I often feel it after sharing something deeply personal, that 'naked' feeling, yup I can relate! But after a while it does bring on a 'new' you, less & less afraid of exposing yourself(I mean you in general not you specifically).

I have been struggling w/the mom/death post, I know I said I would share it, but I'm still trying to get the guts up to go there. It's such a scarey place....But it's not brave if your not scared right...I know Alisa I can hear you!'Nuff said - I'm on it.
