[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 470805, member: 59"] I am overwhelmed by the support and so touched with all of the personal stories that you have shared with me. I do hope this helps difficult child come to a deeper understanding about her adoption and we have had some talks about how her bm may have felt and the whole sense of not being able to take care of yourself let along a child and how that is not a reflection on the child. She must have a lot of conflicting feelings going on right now, how she spent so many years hating us for adopting her and how she has come full circle and knows that we will never turn our back on her and will always support her in trying to do the right thing. It is a big deal that she feels comfortable coming to us for help and yet she knows we won't just bail her out. She came over today to pick up her income tax return from last year to apply for aid. She had a job interview this morning at another animal hospital and is shadowing there tomorrow. I gave her something to take back to the sober house for her dinner and we had a good talk. She is working through her decision and not in self pity mode. She hasn't asked us for anything and seemed genuinely grateful and relaxed at home. She broke up with the jerk boyfriend last night, thank goodness. Nancy [/QUOTE]
