About Me
- Tudu
- Deep South, United States
- I am the mother of 10 children, 6 are part of a large sibling group we adopted through foster care in 2006, 2 are our grown foster daughters, 2 are from independent infant adoptions in 2001 and 2008. Every one of them have their own issues to work through from Schizo-Affective Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Complex PTSD, Reactive Attachment Disorder, Sensory Integration Dysfunction, ADHD, and Cerebral Palsy. Most of our children have been victims of sexual abuse by a close family member, most acted out sexually or exhibited predatory behaviors. We are currently trying to figure out where the trauma ends and mental illness begins in each of their lives.

When I was in basic training, I estimated an end date for myself, marked it on the calendar, and when things were really hard, I would count backwards from that end date. It actually helped because each day was closer to the end date. I guess my point is, this huge avalanche will eventually let up and then you will be able to dig yourself out. In the meantime, hang in there. We are all pulling for you!
