No you should write it down/talk about stuff now while it's still relevant to you! Folks used to tell me I should do this, cause of some very unusual and tough experiences I had to go through but I thought I'd wait until I was older. They were pushing me to talk to teens about what I'd gone through to help others but I was really nervous to talk about it.
Unfortunately I have forgotten some of the small details that make a story really good and I have changed so much since then that it no longer feels relevant. I mean it's not that I didn't still experience the trauma but I don't feel like the same scared kid turned survivor anymore. It almost feels like it happened to someone else now. So write it all down or talk about it now!!! Someone could learn a lot from what you have to share!

Sunny's right. I can relate to the part about forgetting details. After strokes and a brain tumor I've actually lost years and special things I'll never remember.
I added yours and I have like 700 spam emails I need to go through. Hope I haven't missed any more or even deleted any.
OK, let's forget emailing me the info. either post it here and I'll add from here or pm me. I don't want to leave anyone out. And if I find anyone else in there I'll post it in the order I recieved it, Sorry if anyone was waiting to be added and wasn't.
So tear gas in Oakland and I missed where, but 4 bears are wondering an area and they ate a man's chickens for lunch. Wish I had heard where.
I'm putting in a winter garden and I have things to compost, but no compost bin yet. I love the idea of what was done with the tomato cages as well as the cages themselves.
