[QUOTE="Tiredof33, post: 594620, member: 13558"] My difficult child has acknowledged Mother's Day, my birthday, Christmas so very few times I don't miss it. My mother would be very upset if I (we) missed any of those days so I foucs on her. We are all (sisters and nieces) going to dinner and a movie next Saturday to celebrate and my mother received A LOT on Sunday. I'm so happy for all of you that our difficult child's took the time to remember a special day. Now that my difficult child knows without a doubt that I will give zero money I may never hear from him, he is that spiteful and always has been. The brief year(s) he was off drugs was amazing. I hold that close to my heart. Sadly, the NC has been so peaceful and 'letting go and letting God' gets easier each day. As RE mentioned, the sadness creeps in, but overall I can accept and forgive myself, also him, and each day I pray for us. I also don't share with my family, only hubby and difficult child's sister, and those only occasionally. Joining the Red Hat Society has been so much fun and a big distraction from difficult child. I never give up hope that one day he will call clean and sober, but I don't sit by the phone waiting - and never hold my breath lol!!! (((huggs))) [/QUOTE]
