Band Back Together is the brainchild of Aunt Becky from Mommy Wants Vodka. When Aunt Becky delivered her third child, Amelia, born with a previously undiagnosed neural tube defect called an encephalocele, she realized (with the help of her amazing Band of Merry Pranksters) that there was a tremendous need in the blog world for a place where we could all come to put our stories down. A place we could put our stories together and find comfort and solace in knowing that we were not alone. We are none of us alone.
A group blog that we could share our struggles and our triumphs.
A place that we could Band Back Together.
So we invite you to put on your most comfortable pair of pants (or none at all, as the case may be) grab a drink or three, pull up a chair (I recommend the leather ottoman), make yourself nice and comfortable, do just that. Share your stories. That's what this place is about. Sharing your stories. It doesn't matter who you are, where you come from, or where you're going: we're all the same here.
Everybody needs a place where they can let it all out.
Now you have it.
So don't be shy now. Introduce yourself. Have a look around. There are all sorts of nooks and crannies for you to explore. Some may be empty now but soon will be brimming with people and stories. You'll make some friends here; find some new people. Your people.
It's safe here.
All the comments are moderated, all judgment checked at the door with your soggy wet clothes. Inside it's warm and dry. We're not here to judge how you feel or why you feel the way you do. So let it out. Write when you want to, support when you can and remember: you never know who might be helped by your words.
We're none of us alone. It's time to Band Back Together.
