[QUOTE="Weary Mother, post: 695242, member: 20487"] Hello everyone, I am posting a new thread and since I am new to this am not sure if this is how or not, I am following the help of others on this site to do so. My 46 year old daughter who recently became homeless (she actually has technically been homeless for a while but living with this one and that one) has turned a corner. She has a job, small though it may be and after several weeks of her snotty attitude and feeling sorry for herself, has turned a corner. I have sent below the text she sent me last night. This is the first sign that she may at least temporarily have begun to heal. I am trying not to be pessimistic and think that the other shoe may drop and am taking this as a blessing, for now. she says: I am really liking life at the moment. Feeling Better, working, no drama. Figuring things out. I want you to know I appreciate everything you have done and I am very sorry that I was so into my own mess that I have disrespected you. I love you Mom So, thanks everyone here for helping keep ME on track, which is all I can do. Letting her figure things out and make the effort to improve her own life is hard, because I think I have all the answers and in order to ease my aching heart and lesson my own pain, I fix her instead of letting her suffer enough to find her own fix.
