Understanding this is the first step to that goal of professional success

Or willingness to put in the hard work. No, you have to create a new game, your game.

Catherina:
I need advice on how to write a letter to my mom in rehab?

Catherina:
Experiences, advice, anything helps.

Catherina:
If anyone has gone through a similar experience and has some advice, or even if you haven't but have some good advice, I would love to hear it.

Catherina:
I don't kow how brutally honest to be or how writing that letter will change things.

Catherina:
There's just a lot that I've never put to words before and there's a lot of negative emotions I don't know if I'm capable of expressing.
(23 August 2016)

Catherina:
I've tried to write that letter several times but I can't seem to do it.

Catherina:
She's in a rehab facility right now and her counselor wants us each to write a letter talking about how we've felt in detail.
(23 August 2016)

Catherina:
As you can imagine, that has affected our relationship and it's done some damage to everyone in the family.
(23 August 2016)

Catherina:
She's a wonderful person when she's sober, she really is, but unfortunately we didn't always get to see her that way.
