[QUOTE="welcometowitsend, post: 590405, member: 14356"] SFR - That sounded horrible and gut wrenching. I can't imagine being so far away from one of my children and not having a clue what was happening or why. Awful. I am glad that she is out of hospital and seems to be working on future plans - always a good sign. Do NOT beat yourself up. If you'd have thought difficult child 3 was as bad off as 1 or 2 you would have walked on water for her, you know that in your heart. You didn't think she needed what 1 and 2 needed or you'd have found a way to do it. But she does need you now and Insane had great advice. Don't pry or ask big important questions. Just talk about nothing. Stuff that is outside of her life, your relationship with her, the recent events. Talk about the news, talk about the weather, a pretty dress you saw that would look nice on her. Rebuild that comfortableness that she will need to start opening up with you. Then, when she is ready to open up you can have the more important conversations. [/QUOTE]
