Hey, Mary Beth, I enjoyed reading your story, smiling the whole time, remembering you and how hard you have worked for these achievements. You are an incredible young woman. You have proven that a person can pull oneself out of the depths of depression with help and determination. I wish you the best of everything. I miss "my" little girls. What is this about number four??

Mary Beth, I had no idea how tough it got. You'd never know to look at you girl (smile). Today you stand tall and are a beautiful woman and a wonderful mother. I am honored to call you my friend, and you've help me to grow with your knowledge, humor and great hugs! Like me, big girls give the best hugs! (smile) I consider you one of "my babies" with Fawn and the kids, and wish we were closer geographically. In my heart you are right here, and I will always be there for you, just ask. I can't wait for your new baby, and cuddling him/her. You honored me with your request and it means alot. Thank you. May God richly bless you and your family for all of the wonderful, selfless things you've done for friends and strangers. No one is a stranger to us aye? I love you sugar.

Love,
Debi

Mary Beth… Your story is truely inspirational to those who are able to relate to your experiences in life, and one that you should be very proud of. You are able to turn your negative experiences into positive one's to help others who experience similar situations you have been placed in. You have come so far in your life and recovery from the first time I met you. Its been amazing watching you learn and grow throughout the opportunities you have been given. You have many terrific qualities! You possess all the qualities a successful social worker would need to succeed. I hope one day that you will pursue your career in social work. I have gained a tremendous amount of respect for you. Moreover, you have provided guidance and direction to those you serve.
