[QUOTE="so ready to live, post: 700472, member: 20054"] Oh Tanya. I am so sorry. I know so well that even with our acceptance of "where they are" mentally and physically, the contacts are exhausting. I too am a cancer survivor, many times when I should be grateful just to see another sunrise, I've wasted my time with worry. My worry, as our son seems to be chronically in turmoil and yet doing nothing to change it. Is he worried? Only the day before rent is due, or he doesn't have cigarettes or police want to "talk to him". We don't accept phone calls from him if we can identify number. Texts are less painful. Sometimes he leaves messages-convoluted, drunk,strange... If we respond "yes, sorry your car's broken down, if you buy parts, Dad will help you put them on", we get even stranger texts back--"you don't understand, I don't have $". Yes, [I]we don't understand[/I]-the only thing we agree on! It never ceases to amaze me how many of our children are "cut from the same mold". It is very hard for me to listen to the rantings regarding how their lives have been trash since the day they were born and not have it reflect on me as a parent. I work hard at this each day, to know I've done my best and that this is on him now. We have all done our best. No truer words. The tough job is remembering that it's HIS cycle. Prayers. [/QUOTE]
