I am so sorry New Leaf. Hope is such a double edged long sword. Hope can sustain us and it can also bring us to our absolute worst state. It is a gift you had the days you had with her. That is a win along with the non blaming behavior your daughter is now exhibiting. That is wonderful. We think there is nothing we can do but I have learned with mending relationships and communicating better, we can, at least move something in them. It's hard work, very hard work, for us to be in recovery ourselves, and for our loved one, to do theirs.
