[QUOTE="Rhonda, post: 250484, member: 6732"] RM - I already do the picture thing.. but i have them all out through her last soccer picture's, the ones where she was still going to go to college. But the truth is they all make me sad. I have a therapist that I talk to on the phone occassionally, but like you, I don't have insurance that covers it. I think I am at a point where "I" need to completely back away or do something... Maybe I just need to do something to make myself feel better and when it doesn't work then I can back away from this. I mean really how much pain can one person bear, sure does seem like a lot, or all of us out here would be bed ridden or in hospitals. Suz - Thanks for the information. I will look into what an attorney could do. Right now I don't have much in my life.
