Quote:
But if she really could read my e-mail and have no emotional reaction, go have fun with others, and have "the best day ever!"-- then I truly am at a loss for words. When I asked her before (shocked!) about why she listed me as her emergency contact, she said it was because she had no one else and I was the only responsible person she knew who was still there for her. Every time I thought about cutting her out of my life before, that line replayed in my head and it made me want to give her another chance. It was hard for me to send the e-mail, cutting her off, because I was afraid she'd have no one left. I was afraid about what might happen to her.

Two thoughts:
1. She might not believe that you would actually cut her off.
2. With regard to being an emergency contact: cutting that off seems to particularly trouble you. Therefore, you could consider keeping that status. In other words, you would respond if the hospital or the police call you, but otherwise you would not respond.
