[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 632919, member: 17542"] Oh Alb. I am so sorry that you have been going through all of this over the past two weeks. I am just so sorry. Your letter is right on the money. It shook me to my core. The honesty and the right-where-we-all-live authenticity of your letter is....well, it is real. I could claim each word myself. I think there is value in writing---and sending---these letters, value for you and for me. In the dark of the night, in the dark night of our souls, when we are in agony, like we so often are, those of us here on this board, we will KNOW that we spoke our agony and that we spoke that agony to the one who holds the keys to the kingdom. It may not change one single thing. But we will have said it. We will air it out in the clear light of day. We will have spoken our love and our despair, because of that love, over our adult children. There is value there. Value for them, surely, in some small or large way, and value for us, and then, value for those we share the letters with. To love like this is a gift and a curse. We are here for you Alb. We are here. Warm, warm hugs. [/QUOTE]
