..wow Jess, that's actually made me cry..you're so young and you've been through so much and felt pain that you shouldn't have...you deserved a childhood, everyone deserves that and you didn't get one...I'm sorry about your dad, that you didn't know and that it was so hard for your mum to come to terms with and she probably lost her heart for a while with that and certainly lost herself...I'm glad that your sister is back in Ireland with her children and away from that guy and that maybe her grandchildren will help fix your mum and make her whole again
..I'm glad you met someone, I hope he makes your life happy and is always kind to you...and have the best time in Portugal, ok...
