Hi Julie, Have you looked into a gamanon face to face meeting YOU can attend? That would be a great starting point for you to come to terms with your own...
Hi Again, Someone responded to my message and asked how my dad can be oblivious. I didn't mean to say that he doesn't know. He has had to pull money out of...

Happy Friday, everyone. I have a question that I have been trying to figure out the answer to on my own, but just can't seem to. A couple months ago, my CG...
