[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 695459, member: 17720"] Thank you, Lil. Virtual hugs are nice too, especially rainbow hugs! The FB blocking turned out to be a moot point. He beat us to it. His hateful messages continued after he got off the bus: We don't love him, no one he meets understands how we can be so cruel, we think he's a "freak show" and enjoy his suffering, etc....eventually he stopped when he got no response. Then easy child called me yesterday morning, frantic because Difficult Child put a post on his FB page the night before: "Scrolled through all of my posts. Don't know who I am anymore." Then he sent her a FB message: "Happy belated birthday. Just consider me dead" and blocked all of his family and friends from his FB page. I am worried about him, of course. We really have no way of knowing anything about him anymore. At least I could see that he was alive out there, because I could see the last time he was on FB. A few days before he blocked us, he posted something like, "Hell is not knowing whether he's alive or dead." So he told us he was going to do this. That's pretty mean. I am also so *^$#!NG angry that he dragged his sister into this. She has neither the ability nor the inclination to send him any money. It seems like maybe he did it only as another parting shot? He can be just REALLY MEAN. Well, at least now he truly has the opportunity to fly or not, on his own, by his own choice. He is the one who severed contact, not us. Not that it is any comfort... I am also wondering, if his driver license and social security card were stolen, how did he take the bus? Don't commercial buses require an ID to board? Something is not right in his story. But I guess it doesn't matter now. Thank you for those kind words, Ready. It is easy for me to forget that I really don't know who he is anymore. Certainly the alcohol brings out the very worst in him, so I struggle to not get consumed with anger and resentment (a battle I fear I am losing badly) and focus on detaching with LOVE and HOPE for the day when we can maybe get to know each other again. I hope every one of us gets to see our sons and daughters come back to us, out from under whatever cloud they carry, with their sweet faces, now all grown up, turned toward the sun. [/QUOTE]
