The lady did not cause the accident. It was obvious from the beginning of the story that she was at fault. She ran a stop sign and the blood tests proved she was intoxicated.
@@NilDreamsthe lady that hit her had to be driving to fast to have that kind of an impact to kill someone in a residential area. Makes sense that she was reckless and she was at fault. I don’t think it was Rosie.
Every now and then, we meet someone here. You just feel like scooping them up, holding them tight and telling them it's ok. I'm so sorry this happened to you Rose 😢
Can't tell you how many times the thought of my pets not being cared for has stopped me from making a permanent choice... They really are the best antidepressant!
Same. But lately I'm. Planning on who will take care of them. I don't like this planet anymore. Society is worse eland worse and I'm tired. Being used screwed lied about and basically. Humans are inhumane. And I'm tired.
I Known Rosy since she was 15 and when I'm telling you she is a beautiful soul, pure, and just a good person by nature, and she is a true warrior, she deserves only the best, life has giving her so many obstacles and reasons to just quit and she won't , she can bve bitter just for all that has happend to her and still she is an amazing kind human been.
The hospital and/or physicians who cared for her after the accident really didn’t do their job. How do you almost die and get out of care the next day? No one set her up with therapy? Disability for her job? The police didn’t help. Shame on the system.
The hospital can only give resources and it’s up the the patient and family to do the rest. I also died in an accident , coma for a couple of weeks and when I was deemed able to go home to 6 children, I was only given my discharge papers and that’s it!
Same I got into a pretty bad accident got hit by a drunk driver , I broke my ankle completely all my toes and my sternum .. I went home 6 days later I got physical therapy but it was just very minimal for my foot to make sure I can move my toes but that’s it !
There's no statute of limitations on grief. Loss is real, it's a fact, and it doesn't stop being a fact. People who say "get over it" really don't understand loss at all. You don't ever really get over it, you just learn how to live with it and learn how to ignore it.
Yes, I agree with. What used to really frustrate me was people saying ‘you need to move on with your life’. I know they meant well, but ‘move on’ implied forgetting, and that’s impossible. I know it’s only a word, but I prefer ‘move forward’, as I’m taking the memories of my wife with me in what I do.
I agree to the point where, had the woman who t-boned their vehicle was honest at the time, the outcome would definitely be different but it wasn't. I hope the woman was charged for causing the accident.
12:52 this resonated. I held the hand of my wife nearly 10 years ago as she took her last breath. She was 38. Awful. This is a brave lady telling her story like this.
I tried that in Ireland they broke my fingers and illegally beat and detained me same as the U$ ..you have the right not if you are handicapped or a woman-but in the states at protest always write down the number of a pro bono lawyer whom is backing the protest whom will you bail you out and bring a sharpie with you to copy it- why i left the U$ 20 yrs ago wtoseattle and tanks in my neighbourhood - prophetic but Ireland is BADD if you ar e an immigrant or not a white man
@@douglassnell408 press F to L. also, original poster is absolutely correct. alternate versions; "Lawyer me.", "Lawyer me now", "Me needing lawyer a lot now", and.. oh, para-rephlecting as I am, you and your ingenous ways, go wild with those facts in contemplative form.

Some of these comments. People are acting like they were there and knew what happened. Weird behavior towards a stranger. This could have happened to any of us. Thanks for sharing Rose. 🌹 I wish you well.
My mother and 11 year old niece were killed when the driver of the other car fell asleep and hit them head on. His vehicle had drifted across the road and his foot had gone dead on the gas pedal causing him to hit them at 80 mph in a 30mph zone. He hit them so hard, the frame behind the front seat was broken. He survive with a couple broken ribs. My mom died on the scene. My niece died two days later. When we went to see the vehicle, the salvage yard worker thought we were just oglers. We were actually there to retrieve personal items from the trunk. But the salvage worker just started casually saying how, oh yeh, she was going over 80mph…making it her fault. I said, “Shut up! Just. Shut. Up! My mother NEVER broke the speed limit. She had her GRANDBABY in that car! A grandbaby that she loved DEARLY! So SHUT UP ABOUT THINGS YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT!” He slunk off somewhere. It’s disgusting how people will just assume. Or hear rumors without knowing facts and spread them.
That's truly horrific I lost my wife and 2sons life is truly unpredictable I can't stand being alone with my thoughts I have been alone for the past 6years since losing them my friends say get over it and I say you never truly get over something like that you carry it with you Forever and always I am Dead inside a shell of a person
@@RobertMajor-jq2ke Unless they’ve experienced a loss of this magnitude, there’s no understanding it. I had people tell me I should seek help three months after it happened!! Get out of here with that! I will always grieve their loss!
I’ve become so addicted to this channel, new subscriber here! This woman’s story tugs at my heart. I’m older but someone who was my significant other for a very long time died not long ago and I still beat myself up because I always wished I could have done more for him. It’s the same kind of feeling. I have bipolar disorder myself. I’d honestly be willing to send her a card and some money to try to help her out in some way. This has also made me realize how judgmental I can be, because when I first saw her with the purple hair and tattoos I felt dismissive of her, but then when I listened to what happened I just want to give her a hug and let her know how much I care. This kind of thing could happen to anyone.
Rose, before you told us what you do for a living, I noticed how beautiful your hair & nails are. Then, I noticed the candles on your arm. Ma’am, I’m in Texas. And proud to share my state with you. You are the opitome of survival beauty. I thought ptsd & then you said bipolar and I realized that someone could have both. Your strength is remarkable. To see you not only survive, but thrive is inspiring. Remember, it’s ok to have bad moments, hours, days sometimes. That’s part of grief and there is nothing abnormal about it. All the things you feel about the tragedy, is valid and completely natural. And there is no time limit on it. You process how you process and frankly, it was fantastic to hear your story to the end. Bravo.
I question this. I’ve worked with several psychiatrists and none have ever spoke to a person like this. This likely her interpretation of what he said….not reality.
You are taking one side of the story… of course. Purple tattoo girl has the greatest memory. She just wants money. I know you all think the hospital and paramedics did her dirty. Typical.
I really hope that woman who hit them gets what's coming honestly...she destroyed so many lives and couldn't be accountable for it....thats frustrating...so sorry for your loss and I pray you have so many blessings coming to you ♡
I couldn’t finish watching, I was so mad that I know it’s not her fault and they blamed her. Please tell me, how was it found it wasn’t her fault..how did she find out? Thank you!
Rose was failed by so many people especially the professionals whose care she was in. A psychiatrist calling her a junkie?!?! Wtf. I’m so glad she survived all this and is thriving. Good for you Rose. Proud of you!
And prescribing her a shoebox full of medication right off the bat including xanax?? Wtf is that. Statistically speaking, people who are in poverty or are the most vulnerable get prescribed for the most drugs. This medical system needs to change
Psychiatrist absolutely say that type of shit to people. And if you think they don't, you're part of the blind population that also thinks facilities are more helpful than hurtful.
I survived childhood cancer. But many of the friends I made in hospital didn’t. Survivors guilt comes in many forms no matter how unreasonable it is when you think about it rationally. I don’t think I’ll ever forget the faces of my friends and still wonder sometimes why I was allowed to live and they weren’t.
Live your life to the fullest!! For you and memory of them! Gods plan is real. You’re here for a grand purpose. Don’t waste it feeling shame, those feelings don’t come from the Lord. Live laugh and love!!!💗
@@blessedbythebest1003 I hate when people say it’s gods plan to have children suffer and die. How is that supposed to make anybody feel better? I’ve heard it often as a kid too that it was meant to be and that just made me mad towards a god who’d let that happen. Rather than say god somehow thinks it’s good to have kids suffer, I’d love if people just accept that terrible things happen and you can lean on god DESPITE that to get through the tough times. Not everything has to be rosy and not everything has a simple explanation, it’s better to say we don’t know why terrible things happen to innocent people but if god gives you strength to survive that then I’d rather say that is his plan.
I lost 2 of my loved ones to a drunk driver. He ended up going to prison, but I felt such hatred for him. He never admitted or owned what he had done. Later we learned he had led a terrible life, left his children and a spouse - no reasons for driving drunk but gave us a bit of insight or reason for something that makes no sense at the time (if that makes sense). You never know what's going on in someone's life. I thank you for recognizing the part you had in these events. I wish you a good life, Rose.
I relate to staying alive for your pets. Not too long ago I was in a really dark place. I kept reaching out for help and I wasn’t getting it. No one took me seriously. Anyway, one night I was screaming in my bed and sobbing about certain ideations RUclips doesn’t like. My dog came in the room, jumped on the bed, and licked my teary face and cuddled up on my lap. It was in that moment that I realized if anything happened to me, she would be so confused and sad. Her love for me knows no bounds. That’s what I needed. I owe my life to my Sunbeam💖
Honey💖💖I pray if the same dark place ever happens to me I remember you and your story. You're brave, really brave for sharing and it's people like you we remember, and maybe you save lives and souls and you'll probably never know it. I'll remember you, with so much regard.
@@meggrim5993 I'm so glad you feel that way! Because it's very true and I hope we stay in touch. We are friends now and this is exactly why I love RUclips 💖🍫 here is a Choco candy bar for you to enjoy and please give Sunbeam a kiss from me as long as she doesn't mind if I smell like kitties😻
Rose, your story has left me speechless and in awe of your courage and strength. Oscar would be so incredibly proud of how far you’ve come, even though you stumbled, you continued to get up and fight. An inspiration if I ever saw one.
I am so sorry for your pain. When I lost my husband he was 28 and I was 24. Talk about trauma. No one can truly understand unless they have lived through it. Head up and try to stay strong. Sending love and prayers ❤❤❤❤ Lisa Las Vegas
it's one of the most surreal experiances_ traumas one can have. It happens in the blink of an eye but feels like it's slow motion,time almost stands still..
What a freaking strong woman! These types of testimonies help me in my own struggles. I wish she would’ve showed off her tats and their stories. YOU GO GIRL! RIP Oscar. Big Ups to Fiancée for being strong for you also.
Most people will not have to experience one of these traumatic events in their lifetime, yet she’s been able to survive multiple and also be clear, calm and articulate while reliving them to relay her story. She’s stronger and more resilient than most will ever be.
We are looking forward to hearing how your next chapter goes. Truth be told, I don't think it would be possible to feel any other way than how you felt. What a horrible time for you to have to endure. Keep moving forward Rose.
Shame on these entitled people who inflict this type of pain on others. What a horrendous and egregious act on another human being. This young woman just lost ten years of her life. I hope that she now really knows that she deserves to be happy and at peace. Her resilience is incredulous, but it’s also a beautiful thing. I would like to give her a piece of advice: Don’t let ANYONE play their movie on your screen. It’s all projection on their part. Please know that you are loved. Many thanks to Mark for letting you tell your story.
Perfect example of how a survivor’s journey turned thriver in life. Surrendering to what is the truth and letting go of the self blame for one’s actions takes strong grit and determination to know how you serve a purpose. Thank you for sharing your vulnerability with us and being alive today witnessing your presence that which gives us hope. Grateful and no longer hateful of life. Bless you on your journey as you have blossomed into the Rose you are. 🙌❤️☯️☮️💟✝️🕉️☸️💯
Rose, thankyou for sharing your story and telling us about the loss of Oscar. You have overcome gigantic obstacles and finally are putting yourself and your health first. Your fiance sounds like an incredible and loving man and you deserve ALL of the good things that are happening. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. ❤❤❤❤
Her voice transitions later in the video. Lighter,free, proud of sharing this story to the world. ❤ Sorry that happened but happy you’re alive! Use your life to help others through your testimony.
Some people are so incredibly cruel when they pass moral judgement. Rose, you deserve to be loved and alive on this earth without so much pain. You will feel whole again one day
Rose, I am so glad you have Carlos. He sounds like a good man and a keeper! You should be proud of yourself to have come so far and to have overcome so much. Oscar would want you to live a happy life. Keep going! Many, many blessings.
Life is a delicate balance, where each moment holds the power to change everything in an instant. It can be unpredictable, leaving us questioning the reasons behind it all. But amidst the uncertainty, there is one thing that shines through - resilience. This story is a testament to the strength and courage it takes to share our experiences with the world. Thank you for sharing your story. 🙏🏾
the police get the driver that hit her, and her husband (that was not at the scene of the crash as her witness) and blame her. priceless. no actual work done. The family lashing out is their way of grieving but totally not ok. She had a concussion, that goes with not remembering it. The truama of the entire thing....goes with blocking it out. Just wow, HUGS Rose
They have accident investigators that use measurements to ascertain who was at fault and the speed of each vehicle. If the other lady was speeding, they would have known. It’s math, nothing personal.
To be 21 years old an experiencing a traumatic devastating event such as she describes is unimaginable; to even try figure out how you would have handled it & cast judgement is uncalled for. All of her actions after the crash was her way of trying to cope & deal with the emotional turmoil. Anyone that blamed & shamed her would not have been as strong as she was to get to where she is now today. She’s a beautiful strong wise intelligent smart woman who got through a nightmare that wouldn’t be wished on anyone. Thanks for sharing Rose you are a genuine caring person keep shining. 🌹
She was loaded when the accident happened, she stayed loaded for years afterward. Your laughable attempt to justify a fatal DUI reveal your character, or lack thereof.
I lost my boyfriend in a motorcycle accident that we were in. My boyfriend didn’t make it and I did I definitely feel survivors guilt about it and I can’t even wrap my head around what happened but this video helped me so much to get a glimpse into the future of this grief that I’m going through! I admire you and I send you a big hug 🫂🫂❤️
Thanks Rose! You showed us how resilient & strong you are, even with such adversities you've been through. Wishing you the best of a happy & healthy life.
I feel for you. I'm so proud of you and don't even know you. My fiance shot himself in front of me . Soon after his ex started rumors that either his friend and I did it or that I did it myself. Drugs and alcohol was what caused it...not him or me. Thank you for sharing and encouraging me to make better choices and make something better out of my life.
Thank you for sharing your story. I think this will help others who experience survivors guilt. You deserve this happiness. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!
Mark...more up lifting stories lie this...she's incredible, and it's such pleasure to hear her story and how it came together for her. Best of everything Rose!!
I can relate to Rose so much. My first love also died in March of 2014 and my life spiraled out of control. His family treated me so bad and I wasn't even allowed to attend his funeral. Every year, I feel bad because I've managed to make it to 27 (I'll be 28 on Friday) and he died at 21. Life has a crazy way of teaching us lessons and revealing things to us. I'm so glad she's doing better and she took control of her life. I'm sure he's so proud of her ❤
Cathartic watch.. my best friend in college hung himself and his girlfriend found him, she was calling me all night that night to come over and help her/not be alone. I remember her describing the color he was when she found him. I told her i was coming, id be there soon. I just couldnt bring myself to go there and see that whole scene. I still have so much pain and guilt from that situation, and thinking i somehow could have prevented it. even though i know he would have wanted the same thing - and she holds no grudges either. I know he was already gone but i still feel so badly sometimes. This was 10 years ago this year and im still undertanding it all. He was supposed to come over and hang out the day he passed and stopped answering everyone, it took me so many years of misdirected anger and selfishness, that eventually turned into empathy, and finally into compassion that i try and practice now. It didnt help that he was isolating a lot there at the end, and i was one of the few people he wanted to be around 😢. Some looked to me for answers or some type of sign as to why it happened - but i know thats not my weight to bare. Im an only child and always wanted a brother - he was like that to me. Its taken me this long just to understand how much he loved me. Love you, Patrick. When he passed was when my life transitioned from partying and having fun to using to fill a void that i had it was a very shifting moment, il never forget that night and how it changed the trajectory of my life. Better now, but it does take a long time to heal. I wouldnt say it gets "easier" as much as the pain becomes more familiar 🤔 and can be dealt w in that way. Just sharing my story. Thank you to anyone who reads for letting me share that, the 10 year anniversary of his death was a few weeks ago
Though I don't know you personally Rose, still I'm so very happy for you and extremely proud of you. It brings joy to my heart to see you overcome loss and found redemption. You deserve everything great thing that life has to offer. Godspeed to you Rose! 🙏
Thank you for your story. You were failed by so many people that are supposed to make sure that you are okay. I am so glad that you came thru the other side. You are a beautiful soul, inside and out.
"failed by so many people".....this says a MOUTHFUL. Once people "make the connection" that there are VERY SPECIFIC PEOPLE in their lives who are bringing them to their knees and destroying their chances for happiness? That's when they can make BETTER CHOICES by ending contact with those people and cultivating relationships with people who positively impact their lives❤.
never had the urge to comment on a youtube video but this.... im a psychologist whos recently found an interest studying the phenomenon of something called post-traumatic growth and this woman is the epitome of that term. as a survivor myself seeing the genuineness of her smile near the end of the video made me incredibly proud. no story can ever be lost to despair.
What an amazing story about survival, courage and strength! You are so unbelievably strong, Rose! I thought I had it rough but your story really put things in perspective! Thank you so much for telling your story and being so honest ❤️ I'm so sorry for the loss of your boyfriend. I can't even imagine losing the person you love the most so sudden and the way it happened.
I’m so proud of her. I relate to a lot of her story and this video really helped me come to terms with what I’m feeling. I now know what I need to do in order to have a long happy life her. Keep going girl, you’re doing great at this life thing.
Thank you Rose for sharing your story 🩵 Survivors guilt is so hard to explain to others, but you did such a great job at conveying it to people who may not understand. Don't stop being you, don't stop living❤
Amazing outcome, I cannot imagine the last 10 years of what you endured.... thank you for sharing and so glad you fought through to get proper help, it started with YOU wanting the change and that is tremendous ❤🙏 ps MARK YOU ARE THE BEST! ❤
Yes closing chapters in your life is the greatest feeling of freedom. You’re ready to elevate above the past and thank goodness for the little sister giving her that blessing to move on. So happy for her and proof work is therapeutic and when you work you achieve goals and have money to support yourself. Rose you are so strong and thank you for sharing your story with me and us. Also thank you to your fiancé for understanding you and allowing you to grieve in your own way and just being there because he cared. Beautiful.
This hit me so hard. I felt her pain through the screen. Rosy we wish you the best in your healing and journey in life. You deserve the whole wide world
You’re such a strong person for enduring all that heartache and sadness and still being able to pull yourself up and push forward. You do deserve happiness. Congratulations on your engagement, and on the new chapter in your life.
Good Morning Mark from Sunny San Diego! I just recently purchased and received your signed book and i cannot tell you how super pleased i am with it- gorgeous photos!!!! Also whoever does your packing foe shipping- hats off. It was impecable and ao carefully and thoughtfully done. I thank you Sir- it will be a cherished part of our collection 🌈🥰
Hey Rene!! Trust me your book will arrive in mint condition!! It would be an amazing coffee table display and ice breaker/conversation starter!! Mark is a genius and we are all indebted to him for all these eye opening life lessons and for bridging the gaps of humanity. God Bless you Rene & Mark L.🌈💚🥰
I’m in tears at 1:07:00 because of how staggeringly beautiful forgiveness is. Of course we can all understand the pain and even the undeserved resentment Oscar’s mom and sister and family might have felt. What is difficult to understand is forgiveness, and I say “staggering” because it has the ability to trip us up in an unexpected and good way. It has the power to bring us to a new realm of being. Thank you Rose for living your best life and for honoring your love; thank you Oscar’s mom and sister for blessing the happiness of your son’s love.
Absolutely. Well said- forgiveness can be so healing. Rose living her best life and truly doing better and her gratefulness for the good things in her life is beautiful to see. The human spirit is resilient- you can go through Hell and claw your way back if you truly want it and work for it like she has done.
It’s So Crazy how you can be going through something and hear someone else’s story and Realize just how Blessed and Protected You Really Are. Thank you Rose for your Courage and Strength. For telling the Truth about your Poor Choices and Owning up to the Decisions you made whether good or bad. I feel so much better about what is happening in my life right now after hearing how you fought against your addiction and are continuing to push through No Matter What. You’re Truly an Inspiration ❤
It is so nice that this video came out on the anniversary of Oscar’s death because it helps a bereaved person to memorialize their loved ones. I’m so sorry for your loss Rose. Thank you Mark.
Thankyou Rose, for sharing, so sorry for your loss, but a wonderful story of courage and determination you are extremely gifted and successful. To hear your recovery helped me greatly in my life at this time, thankyou x Kylie Perth Australia
You are a brave, strong woman. And you are not only honoring but yourself too. You deserve it. You are brave and a warrior for going through all of that, and going to get help is huge! Brave to come on here as well... peace and love to you, my dear. 💙🌎 You are inspiring...
Damn that was a bad one. Poor Rose. I’m glad she has mostly recovered from that nightmare. Sounds like she got the Texas treatment through the help she was getting. Kudos to you Rose. You do deserve to be happy and healthy. Big hug.
This is a very heartfelt and moving story the pain Rose has endured from a young age, the rejection, the pain, humiliation but then the accusations, injustice, the horrific treatment and throughout she keeps her composure and suffers in silence. She has been blessed. A true survivor.
Carlos sounds like such a great boyfriend for you! 🎉❤ I can relate to a lot of your story, having lost my soul mate to HIV and me not ever even contracting it myself. Then turning to self destructive behaviors and in and out of rehabs, on meds, and getting arrested in NY for having a loose pill in my purse after a traffic stop. My mother left me there overnight and then told me on the ride home that I should have just offed myself years ago bc all I am is an embarrassment to her😮😢. You are such a strong willed successful survivor, and thank you for sharing your journey with us 🎉❤😊 You look a lot like my beautiful Mexican soon to be daughter in law🎉😊
That's quite a story, Rose. I liked the way you explained things, it wasn't confusing to understand. Wouldn't it be cool if Oscar was the one that sent Carlos to you? I'm one of those people that thinks in terms like that. Well, you've been through a 10-year process and have learned much about yourself. Hope you have a wonderful wedding coming up! Best wishes for continued blessing and success and the mindset to always stay grateful. 🙂💒👩❤👨♥
Rose, you a beautiful and resilient young lady. Remember, you are strong, loving, beautiful and compassionate. You have come a long way, sister. You are uplifting and you would be a great mentor for folks going through psychological shifts due to trauma. God bless you!
God bless and God speed you in your life's journey!! So proud and amazed by your strength and ability to pick yourself up from all that grief and misery!! So happy for you!!
Never expect any type of privacy, on personal stuff posted on social media. I’m glad that Rose finally got her act together and is finally for once truly happy
Hi Rose, thank you for sharing your story. You know, ive seen so many things that are not mere coincidences. Seeing the name Mark recently. I went to a creative writting workshop, and was thinking of the playwright Oscar Wilde. I went to the library, and a young man that looks like him points me in the directionof the meeting.. Today i wear a purple pony tail holder. I see your hair is a pretty purple. I too had ptsd., and i know what thats like. Survivors guilt, i know alot of people that have had that over a passing of a childhood friend. I had it too. I think your story will help so many people feel that they are not alone. I think you are brave and courageous, and you give alot of hope to others. I think Oscar is a guardian angel for you, watching out for you always. ❤ 🌈 And a very special thank you to Mark for letting us hear your story. 🙏
So glad that you are doing better after your diagnosis & you are no longer addicted. Congratulations on your engagement. 🎉🎊 I hope your journey continues to move forward. 👍😊👏 You are certainly goal orientated & motivated. Grief will take as long as you need...there is no time limit on grief. Thank you for sharing this video with us. 👍🇨🇦😊 Life is about the choices we all make. Just as there are consequences for all of those choices. Here's a great quote that someone wrote about grief....it hangs on my fridge...so, that I can look at it every day. 👍😊 "Grief, I've learned, is really love. It's all the love you want to give but cannot give. The more you loved someone, the more you grieve. All of that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes and in that part of your chest that gets empty and hollow feeling. The happiness of love turns to sadness when unspent. Grief is just love with no place to go." J.W.A.
Rose, thank you so much for sharing. When you said “I am not ashamed of what I did, was it the best thing? No, but I did what I needed to do at the time to survive.” you don’t know how healing that was for me. Thank you 🤍
I lost my soul mate 9.22.23 I just turned 32 on 3.28, he was only 46, together for almost 11 years. He had a heart attack while driving his dump truck. They couldn’t save him. I miss him so much. I’m soooooo lost. My family just doesn’t understand my grief, doesn’t help that my mom and brother are both narcissistic. I’m super depressed & also just lost my job. I’m really having a hard time. This world can be so cruel.
Don't lose hope. Keep getting up everyday! Keep practicing "self care" and make yourself and your "healing" your number one priority in life. You are enough. You are worth it. You deserve healing and happiness and a blessed future ❤. One day at a time, you can do this ❤.
I hope the lady who caused the accident watches this. I’m proud of you Rose ❤️
The lady did not cause the accident. It was obvious from the beginning of the story that she was at fault. She ran a stop sign and the blood tests proved she was intoxicated.
✔️
@@NilDreamsthe lady that hit her had to be driving to fast to have that kind of an impact to kill someone in a residential area. Makes sense that she was reckless and she was at fault. I don’t think it was Rosie.
Every now and then, we meet someone here. You just feel like scooping them up, holding them tight and telling them it's ok.
I'm so sorry this happened to you Rose 😢
Remember the cops drew her blood meaning she was intoxicated
Love that this was posted on Oscar’s angelversary. Rest in peace.
Can't tell you how many times the thought of my pets not being cared for has stopped me from making a permanent choice... They really are the best antidepressant!
This is very true. They would miss me. My 🐕 & tortoise 🐢. Ok, maybe the dog lol.
@@BeccaJean415 yeahhh maybe just the dog. Although yurtle would miss the grand salads! ♥
Everyone needs a pet. Dogs are my best therapy.
I recently thought what if something happened to me, who would take care of my 2 cats?
Same. But lately I'm. Planning on who will take care of them.
I don't like this planet anymore. Society is worse eland worse and I'm tired. Being used screwed lied about and basically. Humans are inhumane. And I'm tired.

The picture you paint is exactly how Rose comes across. I hope things work out for her. She didn't deserve any of these things
Agreed. What a sweet lady ❤ she seems to be@@Kirkland-rv5jf
Ty 💝
She seems like a sweet person
Teach her how to breathe.
Rose, i am so happy that you had your cat and dog at the time you needed them the most...
I wish you a long and happy life!
That part brought tears to my eyes. I had a close family member in the same situation and our family dog saved her life 💕
pets can definitely help
The hospital and/or physicians who cared for her after the accident really didn’t do their job. How do you almost die and get out of care the next day? No one set her up with therapy? Disability for her job? The police didn’t help. Shame on the system.
It’s because she was found at fault. She’s lucky she didn’t end up in prison
buried in the story is bipolar...her words,not mine.
The hospital can only give resources and it’s up the the patient and family to do the rest. I also died in an accident , coma for a couple of weeks and when I was deemed able to go home to 6 children, I was only given my discharge papers and that’s it!
Hospital discharge papers give medical instructions. Everything else is up to adult.
Same I got into a pretty bad accident got hit by a drunk driver , I broke my ankle completely all my toes and my sternum
.. I went home 6 days later I got physical therapy but it was just very minimal for my foot to make sure I can move my toes but that’s it !
There's no statute of limitations on grief. Loss is real, it's a fact, and it doesn't stop being a fact. People who say "get over it" really don't understand loss at all. You don't ever really get over it, you just learn how to live with it and learn how to ignore it.
Thank you for this comment, it's very much appreciated!
Yes, I agree with. What used to really frustrate me was people saying ‘you need to move on with your life’. I know they meant well, but ‘move on’ implied forgetting, and that’s impossible. I know it’s only a word, but I prefer ‘move forward’, as I’m taking the memories of my wife with me in what I do.
I totally agree!!😢😢
I agree to the point where, had the woman who t-boned their vehicle was honest at the time, the outcome would definitely be different but it wasn't. I hope the woman was charged for causing the accident.
12:52 this resonated. I held the hand of my wife nearly 10 years ago as she took her last breath. She was 38. Awful. This is a brave lady telling her story like this.
Sorry you had to experience that. And sorry for your loss. 🙏
I am so sorry for your loss
I'm so sorry for your loss, I couldn't imagine

imagine killing someone and then blaming it on the grieving girlfriend... wtf

Wasn't it the mom? The man's mom blames her.

Fellow sufferer of survivors guilt. Your story resonates deeply. Thank you for sharing your vulnerabilities, strength, and story.
Some of these comments. People are acting like they were there and knew what happened. Weird behavior towards a stranger. This could have happened to any of us. Thanks for sharing Rose. 🌹 I wish you well.
NOT ANY OF US ......UNLESS YOU ARE AN UNACCOUNTABLE XANNY HEAD
this coldness and judgmentalism is unfortunately way too common on the Internet. We don't know people or their stories, really. Be kind.
My mother and 11 year old niece were killed when the driver of the other car fell asleep and hit them head on. His vehicle had drifted across the road and his foot had gone dead on the gas pedal causing him to hit them at 80 mph in a 30mph zone. He hit them so hard, the frame behind the front seat was broken. He survive with a couple broken ribs. My mom died on the scene. My niece died two days later. When we went to see the vehicle, the salvage yard worker thought we were just oglers. We were actually there to retrieve personal items from the trunk. But the salvage worker just started casually saying how, oh yeh, she was going over 80mph…making it her fault. I said, “Shut up! Just. Shut. Up! My mother NEVER broke the speed limit. She had her GRANDBABY in that car! A grandbaby that she loved DEARLY! So SHUT UP ABOUT THINGS YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT!” He slunk off somewhere. It’s disgusting how people will just assume. Or hear rumors without knowing facts and spread them.
Im sorry for your loss
That's truly horrific I lost my wife and 2sons life is truly unpredictable I can't stand being alone with my thoughts I have been alone for the past 6years since losing them my friends say get over it and I say you never truly get over something like that you carry it with you Forever and always I am Dead inside a shell of a person
@@RobertMajor-jq2ke😢
@@RobertMajor-jq2ke Unless they’ve experienced a loss of this magnitude, there’s no understanding it. I had people tell me I should seek help three months after it happened!! Get out of here with that! I will always grieve their loss!
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💔
I’ve become so addicted to this channel, new subscriber here! This woman’s story tugs at my heart. I’m older but someone who was my significant other for a very long time died not long ago and I still beat myself up because I always wished I could have done more for him. It’s the same kind of feeling. I have bipolar disorder myself. I’d honestly be willing to send her a card and some money to try to help her out in some way. This has also made me realize how judgmental I can be, because when I first saw her with the purple hair and tattoos I felt dismissive of her, but then when I listened to what happened I just want to give her a hug and let her know how much I care. This kind of thing could happen to anyone.
Rose, before you told us what you do for a living, I noticed how beautiful your hair & nails are. Then, I noticed the candles on your arm.
Ma’am, I’m in Texas. And proud to share my state with you. You are the opitome of survival beauty.
I thought ptsd & then you said bipolar and I realized that someone could have both. Your strength is remarkable. To see you not only survive, but thrive is inspiring. Remember, it’s ok to have bad moments, hours, days sometimes. That’s part of grief and there is nothing abnormal about it. All the things you feel about the tragedy, is valid and completely natural. And there is no time limit on it. You process how you process and frankly, it was fantastic to hear your story to the end. Bravo.
❤❤❤
Thats a beautiful thing to say ❤❤
this is such a beautifully written comment. i hope she sees it
"Survivor" being the operative word in this title! Good for you, Rose. I hope you live a long, happy life.
Mark, thank you for sharing this inspiring story of survival.
That psychiatrist who shamed her at the facility should loose his license...geeze
She was in the wrong bringing drugs in.
@@jjkatz and giving them to someone there
I question this. I’ve worked with several psychiatrists and none have ever spoke to a person like this. This likely her interpretation of what he said….not reality.
@@LAan0201 ruclips.net/video/jO9nzq9xfLA/видео.htmlsi=_uKu7nGBHTnJtLTB
You are taking one side of the story… of course. Purple tattoo girl has the greatest memory. She just wants money. I know you all think the hospital and paramedics did her dirty. Typical.
I can't believe her mom would let her go back to Mexico knowing her lunatic father would be waiting to do her unspeakable harm?!!
I really hope that woman who hit them gets what's coming honestly...she destroyed so many lives and couldn't be accountable for it....thats frustrating...so sorry for your loss and I pray you have so many blessings coming to you ♡
Only one woman was driving under the influence, and it wasn't the woman who hit them - who was also the woman with the right of way.
@@originalbluebuddhacould you reference any proof
I couldn’t finish watching, I was so mad that I know it’s not her fault and they blamed her. Please tell me, how was it found it wasn’t her fault..how did she find out? Thank you!
In all fairness, she admitted to driving drunk many times after the accident.
Rose was failed by so many people especially the professionals whose care she was in. A psychiatrist calling her a junkie?!?! Wtf. I’m so glad she survived all this and is thriving. Good for you Rose. Proud of you!
do you really think the Psychiatrist said that to her? You don't have to believe everything you hear....
@@bruce274wow....just.. Wow
And prescribing her a shoebox full of medication right off the bat including xanax?? Wtf is that. Statistically speaking, people who are in poverty or are the most vulnerable get prescribed for the most drugs. This medical system needs to change
he could have said it differently but that was the meaning
Psychiatrist absolutely say that type of shit to people. And if you think they don't, you're part of the blind population that also thinks facilities are more helpful than hurtful.
I survived childhood cancer. But many of the friends I made in hospital didn’t. Survivors guilt comes in many forms no matter how unreasonable it is when you think about it rationally. I don’t think I’ll ever forget the faces of my friends and still wonder sometimes why I was allowed to live and they weren’t.
Very deep.
So true ❤
Live your life to the fullest!! For you and memory of them! Gods plan is real. You’re here for a grand purpose. Don’t waste it feeling shame, those feelings don’t come from the Lord. Live laugh and love!!!💗
@@blessedbythebest1003 I hate when people say it’s gods plan to have children suffer and die. How is that supposed to make anybody feel better? I’ve heard it often as a kid too that it was meant to be and that just made me mad towards a god who’d let that happen. Rather than say god somehow thinks it’s good to have kids suffer, I’d love if people just accept that terrible things happen and you can lean on god DESPITE that to get through the tough times. Not everything has to be rosy and not everything has a simple explanation, it’s better to say we don’t know why terrible things happen to innocent people but if god gives you strength to survive that then I’d rather say that is his plan.
@@oceanstaiga5928 Amen.
I am so happy for you Rose. You 1000 percent deserve to do well.
I lost 2 of my loved ones to a drunk driver. He ended up going to prison, but I felt such hatred for him. He never admitted or owned what he had done. Later we learned he had led a terrible life, left his children and a spouse - no reasons for driving drunk but gave us a bit of insight or reason for something that makes no sense at the time (if that makes sense). You never know what's going on in someone's life. I thank you for recognizing the part you had in these events. I wish you a good life, Rose.
I relate to staying alive for your pets. Not too long ago I was in a really dark place. I kept reaching out for help and I wasn’t getting it. No one took me seriously. Anyway, one night I was screaming in my bed and sobbing about certain ideations RUclips doesn’t like. My dog came in the room, jumped on the bed, and licked my teary face and cuddled up on my lap. It was in that moment that I realized if anything happened to me, she would be so confused and sad. Her love for me knows no bounds. That’s what I needed. I owe my life to my Sunbeam💖
Honey💖💖I pray if the same dark place ever happens to me I remember you and your story. You're brave, really brave for sharing and it's people like you we remember, and maybe you save lives and souls and you'll probably never know it. I'll remember you, with so much regard.

Rose, your story has left me speechless and in awe of your courage and strength. Oscar would be so incredibly proud of how far you’ve come, even though you stumbled, you continued to get up and fight. An inspiration if I ever saw one.
I am so sorry for your pain. When I lost my husband he was 28 and I was 24. Talk about trauma. No one can truly understand unless they have lived through it. Head up and try to stay strong. Sending love and prayers ❤❤❤❤ Lisa Las Vegas
Hugs
I can’t imagine how terrifying it would of been to experience a car crash like that☹️
it's one of the most surreal experiances_ traumas one can have. It happens in the blink of an eye but feels like it's slow motion,time almost stands still..
What a freaking strong woman! These types of testimonies help me in my own struggles. I wish she would’ve showed off her tats and their stories. YOU GO GIRL! RIP Oscar. Big Ups to Fiancée for being strong for you also.
Most people will not have to experience one of these traumatic events in their lifetime, yet she’s been able to survive multiple and also be clear, calm and articulate while reliving them to relay her story. She’s stronger and more resilient than most will ever be.
We are looking forward to hearing how your next chapter goes. Truth be told, I don't think it would be possible to feel any other way than how you felt. What a horrible time for you to have to endure. Keep moving forward Rose.
Shame on these entitled people who inflict this type of pain on others. What a horrendous and egregious act on another human being. This young woman just lost ten years of her life. I hope that she now really knows that she deserves to be happy and at peace. Her resilience is incredulous, but it’s also a beautiful thing. I would like to give her a piece of advice: Don’t let ANYONE play their movie on your screen. It’s all projection on their part. Please know that you are loved. Many thanks to Mark for letting you tell your story.
Well said....Ty 💖
Perfect example of how a survivor’s journey turned thriver in life. Surrendering to what is the truth and letting go of the self blame for one’s actions takes strong grit and determination to know how you serve a purpose. Thank you for sharing your vulnerability with us and being alive today witnessing your presence that which gives us hope. Grateful and no longer hateful of life. Bless you on your journey as you have blossomed into the Rose you are. 🙌❤️☯️☮️💟✝️🕉️☸️💯
Rose, thankyou for sharing your story and telling us about the loss of Oscar. You have overcome gigantic obstacles and finally are putting yourself and your health first. Your fiance sounds like an incredible and loving man and you deserve ALL of the good things that are happening. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding. ❤❤❤❤
No child should ever have to live with the fear that her own dad will find her and SA her. I wish I could give her a hug ❤❤❤
didn't she say her father died?
Exactly. Her pattern of anxiety was set in early life.
Mine had threatened to SA when I turned 16....haunted me til 17.....that part of her story killed me. So grateful you are still here luv. So grateful❤
What about her brilliant mom who sends her for the summer straight to where he was?
You're right. That chronic anxiety and childhood trauma could have affected her response to therapy. So glad she made it through to share her story...
I can relate to so much of your story rose, thanks for sharing. You're not alone.
Her voice transitions later in the video. Lighter,free, proud of sharing this story to the world. ❤
Sorry that happened but happy you’re alive! Use your life to help others through your testimony.
Incredible story. Very well told. Congrats on all your progress, Rose, and rest in peace, Oscar.
Some people are so incredibly cruel when they pass moral judgement. Rose, you deserve to be loved and alive on this earth without so much pain. You will feel whole again one day
It's just inflicting more wounds.
Rose, I am so glad you have Carlos. He sounds like a good man and a keeper! You should be proud of yourself to have come so far and to have overcome so much. Oscar would want you to live a happy life. Keep going! Many, many blessings.
I'm so happy to see that you succeeded in life after all of the trauma. Keep up the good work!
Life is a delicate balance, where each moment holds the power to change everything in an instant. It can be unpredictable, leaving us questioning the reasons behind it all. But amidst the uncertainty, there is one thing that shines through - resilience. This story is a testament to the strength and courage it takes to share our experiences with the world. Thank you for sharing your story. 🙏🏾

Beautifully written 🫶🏼😥
@@stacielewis4912 Thank you for the kind words! We need more of those on this internet!!! ❤
the police get the driver that hit her, and her husband (that was not at the scene of the crash as her witness) and blame her. priceless. no actual work done. The family lashing out is their way of grieving but totally not ok. She had a concussion, that goes with not remembering it. The truama of the entire thing....goes with blocking it out. Just wow, HUGS Rose
They have accident investigators that use measurements to ascertain who was at fault and the speed of each vehicle. If the other lady was speeding, they would have known.
It’s math, nothing personal.
Thanks for sharing your story, Rose.
To be 21 years old an experiencing a traumatic devastating event such as she describes is unimaginable; to even try figure out how you would have handled it & cast judgement is uncalled for. All of her actions after the crash was her way of trying to cope & deal with the emotional turmoil. Anyone that blamed & shamed her would not have been as strong as she was to get to where she is now today. She’s a beautiful strong wise intelligent smart woman who got through a nightmare that wouldn’t be wished on anyone. Thanks for sharing Rose you are a genuine caring person keep shining. 🌹
She was loaded when the accident happened, she stayed loaded for years afterward. Your laughable attempt to justify a fatal DUI reveal your character, or lack thereof.
I lost my boyfriend in a motorcycle accident that we were in. My boyfriend didn’t make it and I did I definitely feel survivors guilt about it and I can’t even wrap my head around what happened but this video helped me so much to get a glimpse into the future of this grief that I’m going through!
I admire you and I send you a big hug 🫂🫂❤️
Thanks Rose! You showed us how resilient & strong you are, even with such adversities you've been through. Wishing you the best of a happy & healthy life.
You have an amazing story and you tell it beautifully. You’ve been thru so much - thank you for sharing your very personal story.
I feel for you. I'm so proud of you and don't even know you.
My fiance shot himself in front of me . Soon after his ex started rumors that either his friend and I did it or that I did it myself. Drugs and alcohol was what caused it...not him or me. Thank you for sharing and encouraging me to make better choices and make something better out of my life.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻💔
Thank you for sharing Rose 🌹
Keep moving forward ❤
Thank you for sharing your story. I think this will help others who experience survivors guilt. You deserve this happiness. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding!
I just want to give her the biggest hug. She has had such a hard life at such a young age.
Mark...more up lifting stories lie this...she's incredible, and it's such pleasure to hear her story and how it came together for her. Best of everything Rose!!
I can relate to Rose so much. My first love also died in March of 2014 and my life spiraled out of control. His family treated me so bad and I wasn't even allowed to attend his funeral. Every year, I feel bad because I've managed to make it to 27 (I'll be 28 on Friday) and he died at 21. Life has a crazy way of teaching us lessons and revealing things to us. I'm so glad she's doing better and she took control of her life. I'm sure he's so proud of her ❤

Cathartic watch.. my best friend in college hung himself and his girlfriend found him, she was calling me all night that night to come over and help her/not be alone. I remember her describing the color he was when she found him. I told her i was coming, id be there soon. I just couldnt bring myself to go there and see that whole scene. I still have so much pain and guilt from that situation, and thinking i somehow could have prevented it. even though i know he would have wanted the same thing - and she holds no grudges either. I know he was already gone but i still feel so badly sometimes. This was 10 years ago this year and im still undertanding it all. He was supposed to come over and hang out the day he passed and stopped answering everyone, it took me so many years of misdirected anger and selfishness, that eventually turned into empathy, and finally into compassion that i try and practice now.
It didnt help that he was isolating a lot there at the end, and i was one of the few people he wanted to be around 😢. Some looked to me for answers or some type of sign as to why it happened - but i know thats not my weight to bare.
Im an only child and always wanted a brother - he was like that to me. Its taken me this long just to understand how much he loved me. Love you, Patrick.
When he passed was when my life transitioned from partying and having fun to using to fill a void that i had it was a very shifting moment, il never forget that night and how it changed the trajectory of my life.
Better now, but it does take a long time to heal. I wouldnt say it gets "easier" as much as the pain becomes more familiar 🤔 and can be dealt w in that way. Just sharing my story.
Thank you to anyone who reads for letting me share that, the 10 year anniversary of his death was a few weeks ago
Appreciate you sharing 🙏
R.I.P Patrick- til you meet again
Hi there, hope u are holding up okay. My neighbors name is Patrick. I think ur friend is with you, watchingout 4 you. 🙏 🌈 ❤
@GardenHomie thank you this means a lot!
Though I don't know you personally Rose, still I'm so very happy for you and extremely proud of you. It brings joy to my heart to see you overcome loss and found redemption. You deserve everything great thing that life has to offer. Godspeed to you Rose! 🙏
Thank you for your story. You were failed by so many people that are supposed to make sure that you are okay. I am so glad that you came thru the other side. You are a beautiful soul, inside and out.
"failed by so many people".....this says a MOUTHFUL. Once people "make the connection" that there are VERY SPECIFIC PEOPLE in their lives who are bringing them to their knees and destroying their chances for happiness? That's when they can make BETTER CHOICES by ending contact with those people and cultivating relationships with people who positively impact their lives❤.
never had the urge to comment on a youtube video but this.... im a psychologist whos recently found an interest studying the phenomenon of something called post-traumatic growth and this woman is the epitome of that term. as a survivor myself seeing the genuineness of her smile near the end of the video made me incredibly proud. no story can ever be lost to despair.
What an amazing story about survival, courage and strength!
You are so unbelievably strong, Rose!
I thought I had it rough but your story really put things in perspective!
Thank you so much for telling your story and being so honest ❤️
I'm so sorry for the loss of your boyfriend.
I can't even imagine losing the person you love the most so sudden and the way it happened.
I’m so proud of her. I relate to a lot of her story and this video really helped me come to terms with what I’m feeling. I now know what I need to do in order to have a long happy life her. Keep going girl, you’re doing great at this life thing.
I’m so sorry for everything that you went through. I hope you have complete healing. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
This interview is probably the one which hit me the hardest emotionally. Rose deserves to be happy and proud of what she has accomplished.

You are such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing your story. I am so sorry for everything that has happened to you.
Thank you Rose for sharing your story 🩵 Survivors guilt is so hard to explain to others, but you did such a great job at conveying it to people who may not understand. Don't stop being you, don't stop living❤
Amazing outcome, I cannot imagine the last 10 years of what you endured.... thank you for sharing and so glad you fought through to get proper help, it started with YOU wanting the change and that is tremendous ❤🙏 ps MARK YOU ARE THE BEST! ❤
Yes closing chapters in your life is the greatest feeling of freedom. You’re ready to elevate above the past and thank goodness for the little sister giving her that blessing to move on. So happy for her and proof work is therapeutic and when you work you achieve goals and have money to support yourself. Rose you are so strong and thank you for sharing your story with me and us. Also thank you to your fiancé for understanding you and allowing you to grieve in your own way and just being there because he cared. Beautiful.

I’m in tears at 1:07:00 because of how staggeringly beautiful forgiveness is. Of course we can all understand the pain and even the undeserved resentment Oscar’s mom and sister and family might have felt. What is difficult to understand is forgiveness, and I say “staggering” because it has the ability to trip us up in an unexpected and good way. It has the power to bring us to a new realm of being. Thank you Rose for living your best life and for honoring your love; thank you Oscar’s mom and sister for blessing the happiness of your son’s love.
Absolutely. Well said- forgiveness can be so healing. Rose living her best life and truly doing better and her gratefulness for the good things in her life is beautiful to see. The human spirit is resilient- you can go through Hell and claw your way back if you truly want it and work for it like she has done.
It’s So Crazy how you can be going through something and hear someone else’s story and Realize just how Blessed and Protected You Really Are. Thank you Rose for your Courage and Strength. For telling the Truth about your Poor Choices and Owning up to the Decisions you made whether good or bad. I feel so much better about what is happening in my life right now after hearing how you fought against your addiction and are continuing to push through No Matter What. You’re Truly an Inspiration ❤
Random capitalization detracts from your statement.
@@la3800no it doesn't😂 but so glad you are perfect.
Ugh this was so painful to watch, I can only imagine how painful it was to live it and retell the story. Thank you for sharing, Rose
It is so nice that this video came out on the anniversary of Oscar’s death because it helps a bereaved person to memorialize their loved ones. I’m so sorry for your loss Rose. Thank you Mark.
This episode was so sad. I cried at the end because I'm so happy for her. To be treated the way she was and her strength to come back from it all ❤
You’re an amazing woman, Rose. You have the strength to get your life back and you did! I wish you all the best of luck.

You are a brave, strong woman. And you are not only honoring but yourself too. You deserve it. You are brave and a warrior for going through all of that, and going to get help is huge! Brave to come on here as well... peace and love to you, my dear. 💙🌎
You are inspiring...
Thank you so much for sharing! Love the ending and i dont usually sit for long listening to addiction stories as I struggle myself. Much love xox
Seeing that it’s the 28th of March today..I hope Rose is doing better🥹
Bless the program and bless this woman. Keep going on day at a time 🤍 you deserve all good things. Thank you for sharing.
Damn that was a bad one. Poor Rose. I’m glad she has mostly recovered from that nightmare. Sounds like she got the Texas treatment through the help she was getting. Kudos to you Rose. You do deserve to be happy and healthy. Big hug.
This is a very heartfelt and moving story the pain Rose has endured from a young age, the rejection, the pain, humiliation but then the accusations, injustice, the horrific treatment and throughout she keeps her composure and suffers in silence. She has been blessed. A true survivor.
Carlos sounds like such a great boyfriend for you! 🎉❤ I can relate to a lot of your story, having lost my soul mate to HIV and me not ever even contracting it myself. Then turning to self destructive behaviors and in and out of rehabs, on meds, and getting arrested in NY for having a loose pill in my purse after a traffic stop. My mother left me there overnight and then told me on the ride home that I should have just offed myself years ago bc all I am is an embarrassment to her😮😢. You are such a strong willed successful survivor, and thank you for sharing your journey with us 🎉❤😊 You look a lot like my beautiful Mexican soon to be daughter in law🎉😊

Such a healing video not only for herself but I’m sure plenty of others… one of my favorites and I’ve never felt happier for a stranger 💜
That's quite a story, Rose. I liked the way you explained things, it wasn't confusing to understand. Wouldn't it be cool if Oscar was the one that sent Carlos to you? I'm one of those people that thinks in terms like that. Well, you've been through a 10-year process and have learned much about yourself. Hope you have a wonderful wedding coming up! Best wishes for continued blessing and success and the mindset to always stay grateful. 🙂💒👩❤👨♥
Rose, you a beautiful and resilient young lady. Remember, you are strong, loving, beautiful and compassionate. You have come a long way, sister. You are uplifting and you would be a great mentor for folks going through psychological shifts due to trauma. God bless you!

Thank you for sharing this very difficult story
Never expect any type of privacy, on personal stuff posted on social media. I’m glad that Rose finally got her act together and is finally for once truly happy
Hi Rose, thank you for sharing your story. You know, ive seen so many things that are not mere coincidences. Seeing the name Mark recently. I went to a creative writting workshop, and was thinking of the playwright Oscar Wilde. I went to the library, and a young man that looks like him points me in the directionof the meeting.. Today i wear a purple pony tail holder. I see your hair is a pretty purple. I too had ptsd., and i know what thats like. Survivors guilt, i know alot of people that have had that over a passing of a childhood friend. I had it too. I think your story will help so many people feel that they are not alone. I think you are brave and courageous, and you give alot of hope to others. I think Oscar is a guardian angel for you, watching out for you always. ❤ 🌈 And a very special thank you to Mark for letting us hear your story. 🙏
Awesome Story in the end.. so far. Good Job forgiving yourself 💜 You are worth having a great life!
Congratulations. This is the best story I've heard on this channel. You do deserve to be happy. I'm glad you chose to live.
Wow, she has been through so much. So happy that she’s come out on the other side and is doing well. It’s great to hear a story of triumph ❤
So glad that you are doing better after your diagnosis & you are no longer addicted. Congratulations on your engagement. 🎉🎊 I hope your journey continues to move forward. 👍😊👏 You are certainly goal orientated & motivated. Grief will take as long as you need...there is no time limit on grief. Thank you for sharing this video with us. 👍🇨🇦😊 Life is about the choices we all make. Just as there are consequences for all of those choices.
Here's a great quote that someone wrote about grief....it hangs on my fridge...so, that I can look at it every day. 👍😊
"Grief, I've learned, is really love. It's all the love you want to give but cannot give. The more you loved someone, the more you grieve. All of that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes and in that part of your chest that gets empty and hollow feeling. The happiness of love turns to sadness when unspent. Grief is just love with no place to go." J.W.A.
You are a truly beautiful soul. My heart goes out to you and what you’ve been through.
Rose, thank you so much for sharing. When you said “I am not ashamed of what I did, was it the best thing? No, but I did what I needed to do at the time to survive.” you don’t know how healing that was for me. Thank you 🤍
I lost my soul mate 9.22.23 I just turned 32 on 3.28, he was only 46, together for almost 11 years. He had a heart attack while driving his dump truck. They couldn’t save him. I miss him so much. I’m soooooo lost. My family just doesn’t understand my grief, doesn’t help that my mom and brother are both narcissistic. I’m super depressed & also just lost my job. I’m really having a hard time. This world can be so cruel.
Sending you much love and blessings
Don't lose hope. Keep getting up everyday! Keep practicing "self care" and make yourself and your "healing" your number one priority in life. You are enough. You are worth it. You deserve healing and happiness and a blessed future ❤. One day at a time, you can do this ❤.
Praying for you. I’m so sorry
Take care of you like he would. Oxoxo
Sending you love and healing
