melissatwa's Journal, 06 November 2021

Tonight I attended, as a guest, the Brain Injury Alliance gala. My girl is a traumatic brain injury survivor who fights every day to continue healing. Five years ago she was hit by a car while walking in a crosswalk. She is a senior at university now, and we are so incredibly proud of her drive to move, with such bravery and grace, through a life that is filled with constant pain and struggle. It was an honor for me to be included at this special event.

I wore a dress borrowed from my oldest daughter. It seemed a bit scandalous, but what fun to be able to fit into her dress! Just a couple years ago I would never have dreamed it possible to share clothes with my girls. NSV!

Oh, friends, you are so kind! I am so thankful for the beautiful and encouraging words from you all. I am grateful to be able to share both the hardships and the joys in life. Please pray for my girl. Things are not going in a good direction physically for her lately. But, it was very special to share going to this event with her. We were able to connect with so many people who have touched her life and also those who have been touched by her and her story.

Princess, well at least saw the one photo of us before anyone else, since I sent it to you from our table! ❤️ I am sure I will never wear such a dress again, but it was fun! Wifey... You literally made me cry... I want so much to help her. I do love her with every fiber of my being. We are very close... As is often the way people bond who have battled together through really tough times. ❤️🙏❤️ Thank you all for your sweet words!
