[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 128970, member: 84"] Carolanne, You've come a looooong way. You ought to be proud of yourself. Because I know you're worried and hurting, and wanting so darn bad to find out if difficult child being sick is true and what is going on. I know because I would be, and so would probably all of us. But it's true contacting her would do nothing to stop her behavior. So, you'd be right back at square one, actually maybe a couple of steps back from square one because she's not gonna think you've got the strength to stand up to her games and she'll just work harder on you. And you always run the risk she's just saying she's sick to tug at your heartstrings. But you stood strong. ((((hugs)))) I know that was hard. Stepgfg stepped out of our lives 5 yrs ago. And I still have a day sneak up on me when I [B]want, need [/B]to try and find her and the grands. Doesn't seem to matter that my brain knows that's not the answer. My heart occasionally over rides my brain til I can get it back under control. Sending warm (((hugs))). Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
