To Destiny
by Gwen

Dear Destiny,

Hey little one! This is your mother Gwen writing this to you. I want to share how you became a part of my life. Nine months ago I was sexually assaulted. I have struggled with Anorexia since I was like 15 years old. After the rape I relapsed into Anorexia and I checked myself into the hospital. That's how I found out that I was pregnant.

I decided to carry out the pregnancy though I still wasn't sure what I was going to do. I now decide to keep you little one. You have brought so much love into my heart. I will always remember that. I never thought that a horrible experience could bring so much good out of it. But I now know that everything happens for a reason.

You have shown me that there's hope out there in the world of recovery. I have all clothes and a crib for you I can't wait 'till you ar here in my arms. You have brought so much joy in my life. It's just so sad how you had to come into my life but I will love you even more for that fact. If it wasn't for you I am really not sure how my life would be right at this point.

That's why I named you Destiny. Because recovery is my Destiny. I can't wait to venture out into the world as a wonderful mother of such a beautiful girl like you! I promise I will never let you feel the same feelings as myself I don't want to ever see you head down this very scary journey of Anorexia.

Thank you my little bundle of love, joy, and hope.
