I was awakened by the phone this morning--slept in--It was my daughter. Mom I need you to go get on your computer.......I need you. She felt awful when she saw I was not there......!

OMG my heart did flips and joyous screams. She is having a hard time with a lot of stuff and all she wanted was her "mama" ! I can't stop smiling and THEN

She said she was participating in a facebook "thing" where you list things people might not know about you. She told me about several of the things she wrote and then she said that one of the things was

"I am working on accepting my mom for the person she is now instead of the person she use to be."

Can I be any happier? Only if she was sitting in front of me and I could hold her while she cried!
 
Very nice GH. I'm touched. One of the things I so hope for as I recover from this disorder is to be able to resurect relationships with family and friends. Your story is an inspiration to me.

Patrick,

While I don't know the dynamics of you family issues, I can tell you that as the bad parent I fully understood my kids feels and even acknowledged that she had every right to feel as she did. But

The minute she picked up the phone and called me, "I" felt as if none of the crap between us never happened. I know it took a lot of courage for her to call me, but I am so grateful she did. She is working on her side of "us".

We are really not discussing "the crap". She won't go there. W e are living in the here and now. She told me that was how she wanted to do it and I am respecting her wishes.

CALL YOUR FAMILY
 
That is just so beautiful Grama_herc.
She acknowledges and has let it go....and she is working on her side of the two of you...just great news Grama-Herc. Thankyou for sharing it here with us...
the good news I read and hear about here helps to keep me going, and for that thankyou again from me
