I'm sure that your posts about what you're dealing with are actually helping the people that read them. We're all inspired about how others deal with adversity. I can still recall the terror when I was swept overboard in the Navy, and was hanging on for dear life. Getting through something like that will hopefully inspire someone else in the future.
We have a deep bench of good writers here on Hive and I hope they all find the audience that they deserve.
I am sure it was a terrifying ordeal you went through. All that training during the man overboard drills paid off though.
