[QUOTE="AmericanGirl, post: 511478"] Sig, Glad you were able to see him today. Know it was difficult.... I live on Mars. Haven't spoken to my alcoholic and likely sociopathic mother in 3 years (since she attempted to blackmail me....long story). I stopped talking to one niece when I learned all the awful things she had been telling me about difficult child were a lie (digital phone recorder set up to catch difficult child really caught her). I gave her a chance to explain - instead I got nothing but more lies and vulgarities - so I walked away and she chose not to approach me. My other niece then left a horrid 8 minute curse filled voice mail defending her sister. Haven't heard from her since. Their father (my brother) then decided shortly thereafter to ignore my calls and texts. But he's an addict so I shouldn't be surprised. Kind of strange he sided with our mother as not long before that she called one of the nieces (his daughter) and told her things like, "I hate that monster came out of my body." What mother/grandmother would ever do that? While it is sad sometimes and lonely at other times, I do NOT miss the drama, the lies, the toxicity..... If I knew of something to improve the situation, I would do it. But I tried for decades....so Mars is a pretty good place. It's got a great group of friends who are kind and loving. I think you are doing awesome with all this...I know it is really really hard. [/QUOTE]
