For those of you that don't know me, my name is Amy. I'm a 36 year old cis-gendered woman who is currently in college studying Social Work.I'm currently engaged to Piper.

I joined BC to give and get support. I also plan to write stories when I have some time. I may not struggle with the same demons you do, but I have my own I struggle with on a daily basis, which explains the username.

Now for the Gratitude part of my post:

Piper--Thank you so much for accepting me and loving me for who I am. You mean the world to me and there is no one I'd rather be with. You make my days brighter,and make it easier to face the world when I don't want to. Thank you for accepting the fact that I have Dissociative Identity Disorder and being so good with all of my alters. Thank you for being there when I am having a bout of endometriosis pain or during a fibromyaligia flare up. You can make me smile through the pain. Most importantly, thank you for helping me raise our little ninja baby,and being an awesome Mama Piper for him. He loves you so much, as do I. Always remember, sea turtles <3.

Cat--Thank you so much for being there for Piper and being such a good friend to her. Thank you for accepting me into your life and becoming my friend. You were there for me in person during one of the hardest times in my life, when my grandmother first fell ill, and during the first bit of my being postpartum, which was really tough. It means more to me than you realize. I'm honored to be your good friend. <3 <3

Joyce--Thank you so much for being there for Piper during rough times. Thank you for becoming a friend to me. I appreciate it more than you know. Finally, thank you for allowing Piper to be a part of Janglewood, and having something to leave for our son if he chooses to become involved. That means so much to me. <3

Finally, all of you that have supported Piper over the years before her and I met. I appreciate you helping her through tough times. Also for all of your prayers/ good vibes when I was pregnant with our little ninja baby. It meant a lot to us.
