[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 92129, member: 2211"] {{{MWM}}} I know your [mother-heart] is hurting and I am so sorry for that pain. Wanted to send you some supportive hugs. If it were me, I would send at least a card for every occasion that I normally would. Not in the hopes of getting a response, but for myself, because it would be a gift of thought and love, from my heart to my ds/daughter, because he/she is my child, because even if he/she can't reach out to me at least I can reach out to him/her. Giving a gift under any circumstances is usually about the giving part, not about what you receive in return, correct? So, if your heart is telling you to send a card/gift/both, then do it. I know that if it were my difficult child, she would think the reason I didn't send a card or gift is because I am angry or feeling resentful or trying to punish her. Go with your gut and your heart, MWM. Hugs~♥ [/QUOTE]
