“But, I kept thinking, ‘Isn't this where the miracle happens? Isn't this like the stories you hear about where they were at the end of the rope?’ And then I thought, ‘You only hear about the ones that work out good!’ No one tells you the story about being at the end of the rope and finally letting go!”
