Hey, Soren!

How are you doing? It snowed the day before yesterday, leaving some on the ground the next day. It’s all gone now, but it will get cold, so maybe there will be more. Has it snowed at home this winter?

I’ve not done much again. I finished a short story, so I suppose it’s on to editing now. I’m close to finishing a drawing, always nice and rather rare. But mostly I am tired and do not like doing anything at all. The few people close to my age at work have said that they went to college and dropped out but may go back eventually. I know two others who’ve said this; neither have gone back. I hope I do not get too depressed and anxious that I also drop out. If there aren’t help-resources, I suppose I should find some Xanax or adderall (depending on the situation) and keep on through. I do not want to work at the grocery store for all my life. Perhaps college should be longer to prevent overwhelm.

I am mostly emotionally distant right now, firmly inside the bell jar. Sylvia Plath’s metaphor was brilliant. I have never described it in such clarity. I need to put some documents in PDFs to apply to a school, but I am too lethargic to stand up. On good news, we’re going to Disneyland in May with cousin Laura. That will be of comfort. I hope you have gone since we were little.

All will be well eventually, I’m just behind the jar glass. I hope you’re well. It is too self-absorbed in this series of letters when I have nothing new to say but that I am sad and you are gone. There is never resolution. I love you.

With love,

Alice

Jessica

I was married to a woman for a decade. In 2015, she suddenly abandoned our eldest daughter and withheld our youngest. Soren has been taken from her primary home, mom, sister, and everyone on our side of her family since she was 10. Our purpose is manyfold: we want you to know Soren's story, advacate for Soren in Eugene, OR, champion LGBTQ families to help stop abuse, and help ensure no child lives with: psychological abuse, withholding, abandonment, alienation, or parental kidnap again. These are sides of the same coin.

Letters from Sister

Yes, it’s Thursday — you’ll never guess what I’m doing, but I’ll tell you the Friday after this. How are you doing? I got back to England, and the jet lag has never been worse. I am so so tired. I had my first test yesterday: it was open book and lasted 23 hours, but…

Back from Disneyland now, going to fly soon, will the planes ever end? Probably not. How are you doing? Mom found a picture of you online from some article about prom. It was the first photo of you I’ve seen since you were thirteen. Or maybe I was thirteen. I had to do a double-take…

I’m writing this on Thursday because we’re gonna be doing the airport tomorrow. We’ve been at Disney since Tuesday. Tuesday was weird since we were at DCA the whole day (unprecedented), but not bad. Cousin Laura hadn’t arrived yet so we did stuff we otherwise wouldn’t care about like the big rollercoaster and Ferris wheel….

And also Mom’s birthday. And also Weed Day. Mom made me a little basket of treats — it was very nice. Do you still do anything today? It’s nice to have a little something. Not much has happened in the past few days. We watched a public egg hunt where Aaron and his band were…
