[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 626111, member: 17542"] Blackgnat, your feelings today are so right on. First, when you heard what happened and why, you were angry and cynical about why he did this. Today, you are shaky and upset. Stages of grief, blackgnat. We keep cycling through them when "things" happen with our difficult children. Perhaps depression, bargaining and acceptance are next in line. I used to think all of my feelings were unique and they would hit me like a ton of bricks. I learned over time that I would go through this cycle more and more quickly as time went on, and I would recover more quickly. Info that might be helpful: [url]http://psychcentral.com/lib/the-5-stages-of-loss-and-grief/000617[/url] Having said all of that, I am so sorry that he did this. From a mommy standpoint, we hurt when they are hurt, and we despair over the long-term outcome. Today, I pray that we all can just simply accept what is. And then have a good day anyway. Hugs and blessings and prayers to you this day. Take care of yourself today. [/QUOTE]
