Happy New Year Everybody:) I'm looking forward to 2011!
I'm also saddened at my loved ones visit "home" who lives cross country from here and I saw very little of him. I'm letting him lead, so did not suggest much and just let things be. It's been this way for a few years and my heart just misses him! I turn him over to God and trust this too shall pass one day. Sigh....but it remains he's still my child and I Love him dearly. I plain miss him in my life, but do Not miss any disrespect. I know very little of what his life is like now, he is a newly wed since July. All their time home was with her family. Thats ok. But, we did not have a single face to face coversation (or phone, I'm waiting for him to call as he usually doesn't answer anyways). He's been gone from "home" for 16 years. He use to call regularly till life got tough for him, and yes, I believe he is an A.
Anyone else have something similar and words of wisdom for soothing your heart?
Our perfect little family fell into disary when due to a series of events I had what can only be described as a breakdown and I checked out of life completly and my son fell into his addiction my daughter who is my heart decided to totally disconnect herself from our family as we were no longer "the family she knew". she lives only about 25 miles away but very rarely contacts us, not even for the holidays. I keep in touch with her anyway by email or sending her cards. This has been going on about 3 years now. And as much as it hurts that she is not in my life I pray every night that HP keep her safe, healthy and happy and what keeps me going is that I know All Things Are subject to change. So in time she may very well come back into the family fold. she is not an A. I pray for peace of heart for you Blessings
