Pictures are my links to special moments, feelings and people I want to ever remain close to.
For me photos are like memories suspended in time. I like capturing and preserving loving moments to fall back on in times of desperation. When I feel hopeless I hold a photo of one of my raccoons or my partner and life seems a little brighter. When I can look at my profile picture it?s like Peaches is still alive in my arms enjoying our 4th of July pick-nick. The photo I used for this wish is very special to me as well. I was 14 years old when it was taken. In my arms I?m holding Miny a quadriplegic raccoon who taught me what unconditional love really was. Loving her and allowing heto love me was my only reason to stay alive. A couple weeks after that poleroid was taken Miny peacefully passed away in my arms. Sometimes when I?m really scared and all alone I hold my boy friends picture and I can feel his love surounding me. I can almost feel him holding me tight. I?ve made a difficult decition to go into an inpatient treatment facility in March five hours away from my home. I know this is the right choice for me and my recovery. My partner and I will miss each other very much. He has been my very biggest support before I got into recovery and throughout the entie process. My raccoons and boy friend are the loves of my life. I want to stay close in my heart despite being so far geographically. Please vote for me to get Creative Memories scrap books and supplies to keep those I love close by. Although I have listed this as greedy one day when I feel alone these albums may very well save my life. Please tell your friends about my wish.

***** from me because you obviously love animals and they mean a lot to you! I know how much animals can help people through hard times, too, and I think the scrapbook would be great therapy for you while you're away. Animals are wonderful creatures and it's too bad more people can't appreciate them. Best of luck to you!
Also please check out my wish for my daughter. Thanks.
Five Stars from me! I am actually a Creative Memories consultant, so maybe there is something I can help you get started with the scrapbooking. Feel free to send me a message! Good luck!
Good luck for your efforts!! God bless you!

Good Luck!!!!!!!
Good luck, Alethia! If we could vote more than once, I'd vote for you a hundred times! Your decision to go to an inpatient treatment facility must have taken a lot of courage, and you should be proud of yourself for deciding to go. Come back here when you're out of the facility and let us know how you're doing!
