I grew up as the son of a compulsive hoarder. For many years, this had been my secret, lonely shame...but now I know that I am not alone—and that there is no need to continue feeling ashamed.
I've come across a wonderful new blog by a fellow child of a hoarder, and I've added it to my blogroll. Please check out Maintenance Free when you get a chance - the blogger is a very good writer, and she has some pictures that look very familiar.
