The beginning of this year, my father was diagnosed with stage four uncontrollable prostate cancer and he's only 50.

Yeah.

So that was a big deal.

I had a brother exit the military last year and he was not transitioning well this year.

So we had to get him some help.

My mother-in-law, who is very dependent on us, she had some major medical challenges this year that are continuing.

Probably the second.

Um, no.

So part of the, I think what contributed to the depression I had earlier this year was I hit capacity and then I had to keep going.

And so I found myself deep in burnout with nothing to give.

Yeah.

And like there, there was no, there wasn't anything I could offload.

And I think it still feels like that sometimes.

And when I try to have that conversation of, hey, we now have yet another baby, I can't do the entire farm and the kids.

And we have to homeschool our oldest because he can't go to school.

So, I mean, it all kind of falls on my plate.

Not that he's dumping it on my plate, but...

that's just what our circumstances are giving us right now.

And so when I bring those up, I think he perceives that as failure.

Yeah.
