    Oregon: Part 8 - The Reasons

    A very tricky episode to put together. I hope we all feel like it worked out.

    If you're not feeling it, feel free to bail in the middle.

    NOTE: It is essential that you’ve heard parts 1 through 7 before giving this a try.

    Thanks, everyone.

Love this podcast!

My teen kids and I have been listening to this podcast on our trip to Vermont. It is a fascinating story. It’s very thought provoking. Thank you for doing this podcast. I think it can help those who are really depressed and feel like they don’t have a way out.

Life is hard

Great story.... wish maybe this is something I should have done for my son! Maybe he would still be here today. But like you said you just don’t know how things would have been different if you haven’t had went to OT. Parenting is hard and you just pray the things you do for your kids is the right thing to do for your kids. Or what you don’t do is the right thing for your kids. Life is hard! Thank you for sharing.
