Hi Ruth,
I have nominated for the Narcissism Slayers Award. I did not post to your site that I had, I apology for not doing so sooner.

I think you write beautifully and help me see my own journey with a new perspective. The kind and gentle manner in which you approach the recovery process is inspiring. Thank you.
