[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 650210, member: 17542"] HM your post is a wonderful testament to living in the now, acceptance and detachment with love...all desirable states for successfully living. I needed to hear that today, your thought process of looking at reality and appreciating the good times with your son. There is tremendous redemption in what you wrote. If your son becomes healthier at some point, what wonderful parents he will return to, people who value what they have had, and accept those times that were so hard and painful as a part of life. I am reminded today that the "perfect life, perfect family, perfect relationship" is a myth of gigantic proportions in our culture and world, and weighs us down with tremendous baggage that many of us spend the rest of our lives trying to unload. There is no such thing. The more we can accept, grieve If we must, celebrate those good times and keep moving forward, the happier we will be. And the happier those around us will be. Thank you for a beautiful stream of consciousness. [/QUOTE]
