Hello, I’m Melanie or Mel. I’m glad you stumbled upon my blog. I a mom on a mission diving deep (or maybe it’s digging out) to find the strength to get our family to the other side of health problem after health problem.  I decided to start blogging our journey for many reasons, mainly because it feels therapeutic, gets my mind off the stress of it all, and because I hope this will help someone else.

We are staring these challenges directly in the face: ADHD, OCD, Severe Anxiety, Depression, Celiac Disease and Lupus. If you are curious to see how one family handles all of these, take a peek around. If you found us because you are looking for help in the form of tips and recipes or what we’ve tried that worked or didn’t, I hope to give you that. Or, maybe you are just plain nosey, and in that case… you are welcome too. I get it.
