[QUOTE="Tymica, post: 672148, member: 17612"] Sea--Been there, as I'm sure most of us have. Wanting to just ease your aching mommy heart with 1 "normal" conversation, just to get slapped in the face with their terrible choices yet again. The only peace I was ever able to find in it was through complete cutoff. Periodical "Hey I'm here and I hope you're doing better" texts and FB messages and nothing more. If he was doing better and wanted to talk, that was my way of opening the door. If he wasn't better, I didn't want to know anyway. We went 4 months that way. All the while telling myself every day, multiple times a day "no matter what happens, he did it to himself through his choices. I can't change his choices, and I am too tired to try anymore." I am not through my journey, you are not through yours, and our children are not through theirs yet either. Where there is life, there is hope. [/QUOTE]
