🍬 Candy Day: Win your very own candyfied portrait!

@Crazy Cat Lad

Let me tell you a story......

The year was 2007 I was in the U.S. military for over 17 years and I was thriving at work and in life. I was currently deployed to another country working with people from all over the world trying to help people live a better life. While doing so life for me did not turn out as well as I would of hoped. When I returned to the U.S. in 2009 I was diagnosed with severe P.T.S.D. and everything that was I thriving in was suddenly falling apart. I was hospitalized with other people with the same condition and given so many different kinds of medications but nothing worked. In 2010 I retired from the U.S. military so I could start fixing the things in me that was so obviously broken. I was told by many professionals that I need to find something that would take my mind somewhere else so I could start to heal. They recommended some mind games and that didn't work because it was not something that I enjoyed. Then just by chance I saw someone playing this game and I asked them if they enjoyed it. He said Candy Crush Saga was his favorite and asked me if I wanted to give it a try. So I started to play it and before I realized I was playing this game for over an hour. I had no flash backs or anything I just got caught up in winning each level I was playing. I don't know if anyone knows what it like to be have PTSD but it was the first time I had hope that I could get better.

So why do I love Candy Crush Saga? That's because it was there for me at a time when I needed it the most. By no means was it a cure cause to this day I'm still working on myself to get better. But the hope candy crush saga gave me at a time when I thought there was none will be something I will never forget. Do not underestimate hope. At a time when my life felt so dark and so lonely, hope is where it all began. I will always be so grateful for that moment in my life, it changed it forever.

Some days I am stuck waiting for them to call my name at the Drs.office and other days I am stuck laying in bed staring at the same four walls & ceiling. I had an old flip phone that I called my one friend that I have left who comes over to help me a couple times a week. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis yrs ago and it controls the flow my life has taken. Then my phone broke so my friend got me a fancy new phone and I found Candy Crush games.OMG these are a BLAST, I don't even notice the walls or ceiling anymore,or how long the wait is!!! I love the picture of you and your cats. My service dog &Best Friend of 12yrs do died and her Playmate & Best Friend has just joined her I would 💕 to have one of those Avatar pictures of Our Family together because I don't have a picture of us together!! But either way Thank you for the game.I really enjoy it.
