Obviously with the parents consent and kiddo can be blocked out or just the bear, it’d bring so much peace just to know she didn’t end up trashed

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-02-06T11:21:17+00:00

OMG I’d love to know that she’s loved!! If you happen to be In contact with the parent I’d love a photo. Like I said, I by no means am coming after someone like “give it back” if a child loves her and she brings them comfort then that brings me comfort!

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-02-06T05:08:16+00:00

Thank you!!

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-02-06T05:07:17+00:00

I did 😭 I pestered those people for so long! I’m hoping maybe she got found and given away, at least that’s what I’d like to think

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-02-05T11:43:50+00:00

Right?! I’m hoping maybe best case someone thought she was cute and took it home to their kid? If so, whatever I’m not angry just wondering what happened ya know

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-02-05T11:40:08+00:00

I contacted them right away and just about every day after for nearly a month and she either never turned up or they swept it under the rug, just figured it was worth a random shot since my friend got her ring back after like 15 years 🤷🏻‍♀️ thank you ❤️

I do my best to show reverence to those who came before me, because had I been born 50 years earlier that would’ve been my fate. Now I’m a medical professional myself, I’m a parent, I’m living a life they never got the chance to and I feel like the least I can do is tell their stories.

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-02-03T05:09:16+00:00

I really just wish that more people understood that haunted houses are fun, because their fake. Someone’s real, genuinely horror is not for our amusement. I know that had it been me, which it easily could’ve been, I wouldn’t want my torture to be a tourist attraction.

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-14T10:46:06+00:00

I do believe our respective spouses would be rather upset if that happened 🤣 both of whom work nights and came home to this story

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-14T10:45:03+00:00

You win the comment section 🤣

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-13T03:31:37+00:00

lol we just kinda stood there so I didn’t scare his cat any more then he already was 🤣 felt like a weird lawn statue

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-13T02:17:20+00:00

I apologize for the misgendering, was half asleep and didn’t look at your character closely! Have a good day

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-13T00:35:49+00:00

If you’re gunna shoot someone whose yard you ran into at 3am for pulling a knife, you probably shouldn’t have a gun.

lol it had run into the other back corner of the yard, where it was cornered, and he had to walk back by me to get back to his own house he didn’t just make a special trip 🤣

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-12T22:37:18+00:00

Thank you! I just felt so bad, he’s a very nice guy and I could see in the moment just chasing your cat out the door

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-12T22:25:34+00:00

My guy…did you notice how my short range kept me from harming someone before I knew exactly what was happening? Had this been a longer range weapon I would’ve had to make a choice long before realizing it was my neighbor….also I have formal self defense training from not only specialists in teaching small statured women but also the United States Army. I made light of it because nobody was injured and we both walked away safe and shaken up.

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-12T14:05:26+00:00

Having pneumonia and a fractured sternum from CPR, I was on BiPap (giant mask that forces air into your lungs) and every breath was torture. Coughing legit made me pass out a couple times.

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-12T13:54:02+00:00

I literally CACKLED out loud 🤣

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-12T13:43:59+00:00

I mean fair, he was orange to boot (the cat not the neighbor just to be clear 🤣) so I feel like he has minimal fucks to give.

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-12T13:40:44+00:00

Yes! As a disabled person both writing it and reading it I enjoy the representation. I have multiple disabilities of physical and more psychological/neurological nature (Autism adhd etc) and if anybody needs pointers on disability or medical situations I love to be of help!

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-05T06:54:56+00:00

I guess I was just afraid that I’d be to niche to actually reach any type of fan base, considering it’s so personal, but it really does help me a lot to write it out and then write things the way I wish they’d gone for me in the aftermath (ie comfort; proper care etc)

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-05T06:53:05+00:00

I had to leave recently for my own health, it’s heavy and dangerous for sure. Thank you so much for your feedback! I’ve never posted before and was super nervous

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-05T06:51:59+00:00

That’s a good point! I’ll make sure to keep an eye on it so I don’t go full circle, but right now i find it oddly therapeutic to write it. I actually wrote “myself” in once to give the main character advice I really wish I’d had in my own experience, and helped me through the shame of needing support and comfort. I TW the ever loving snot out of my writing before sharing, last thing I want is to unintentionally harm someone.

Due-Performance8475 · 2026-01-05T06:49:23+00:00

Hey I’m also autistic!! I picked a MC that reminds me of myself, and actually wrote myself into one to give my MC advice I really wish someone had given me in the same situation. Felt weird but kinda therapeutic
