The Madonna Breaks…A Reflection on Outlander 2.7
A BROKEN MADONNA
I remember the blood most of all. The blood that wasn’t supposed to be there. The blood that was too much. The blood that wouldn’t stop. I remember lying on a sterile table in a cold sterile room surrounded by strangers. I stared up at the operating room lights and tried not to feel as I heard their efforts to clean my womb.

This Blog Is NOT Dead!
Wow! It's been so long since I have been on here. I have missed it. The reason I've been gone is because I just recently moved! Whew. So exhausting.
