SHORT AND CUTE --- I stand corrected!!! Don't EVER send her a card, call her, or see this so-called "mother' again. She is TOXIC. She is NO mother to you. And I wish she could be arrested for what she put you thru.

This just makes me sick to my stomach.
I hope you're in therapy honey -- if memory serve me correctly (and it rarely does) I seem to remember your saying that you were in therapy. I sure hope so. You need someone to talk to - a therapist, to try to deal with this nightmare of a childhood that you had. How I wish I could help you!!! If you ever feel like venting or just talking, feel free to message me sweetie. I'll be there for you! Big hugs, Lee
