[QUOTE="janebrain, post: 145734, member: 3208"] If you can, think of the things you need to do for yourself (such as eating and resting) as the things that will help you be strong for her--if you feel guilty about doing them for yourself you can think that you are doing them for her because she needs you to be as strong, healthy, and stable as you can be for her. I absolutely know she does not hate you and will forgive you--probably thank you some day when she is old enough to understand all the things you have done for her. My difficult child 1 used to tell me how much she hated me and wished I was dead and I am sure she meant them in those angry moments but she now, at almost 20 yrs old, tells me she understands I did everything I could for her and she is very thankful for the things I did when she was young. Thinking of you, Jane [/QUOTE]
