[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 638882, member: 13882"] Hi GM, The deed is done. What you have going for you is the truth, and the fact that the gov't is a huge bureaucracy and may never investigate. What hurts most of all is your difficult children betrayal, but you cannot dwell on that much longer or it will destroy you, even worse than a government investigation! Please try to put in perspective that she is ill, and it is a manifestation of her illness. It won't erase the hurt, and it's so difficult, and you surely didn't deserve this, but with some degree of compassion and time, you can get past this. I can say this only because my difficult child betrayed me in such a horrible, hurtful way a few years ago, that I wished the ground would swallow me up and I would disappear. My husband's family, who are all "perfect" knew all about it, and I had to face the shame of seeing them through all of this day after day. It didn't matter that my difficult child was manifesting some sort of lack of mental clarity due to drug use and other issues, because my hurt was so real and so raw. Time and distance and perspective will eventually mend things. Hang in there. [/QUOTE]
