[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 621935, member: 13542"] Tryagain, well, it sounds as if things are moving along. You sound more resolved. Those shocks are tough on us, and in our world, unfortunately they are way too common. I'm glad she has a good doctor and some plans are in the works. Our 'Nomad' here has dealt with her young, bi-polar daughter very well, making strong, unbreakable boundaries with consequences that are working well for everyone. So, it can be done. And, her daughter lives near them too. You've always mentioned that your daughter is "lazy" so perhaps this next step in her life will push her to her capabilities and offer her more of a sense of accomplishment and success if she has to work and meet certain criteria. I think that is a wise tactic for most of us here. Remember to take VERY good care of yourselves, keep up the self care.........and try to have some fun, some playful times completely void of difficult child stuff. We need to get away from all of it periodically. SO and I are taking off for the ocean today, we'll go on a long hike, breathe in the salty air, have a nice lunch and a good drive and laugh. We take these outings at least once a week and it is an enormous help. Getting "out of Dodge" even for just the day, does wonders. As always, I'm keeping you and your family in my prayers and wishing you peace of mind......... [/QUOTE]
