Ghosts N' Stuff

Family Crisis! Yikes sounds stressful, well it is. We have been discussing this topic this week in class and I have learned alot. There are so many ways to deal with crisis, and I have learned you can either gain something positive from it or let it pull you down. A major crisis that we have had in our family is that my dad has cancer. At first, the majority of the kids pulled away from everything especially each other. We all dealt with it in our own ways, but know looking back at it I can see that now this experience has brought us closer. We still aren't as close as we could be but things are definitely better. That experiences has also really benefited my life personally, and I can see the growth that has come from it. For the most part in the beginning I can see that a lot of us dealt with it in an avoidance pattern of copping. However it has all turned out for good.
