Hon, you read me like a book. That's what I am looking for...the idea of a mother, because I've never had one either. My relationship with her is very unhealthy but its hard to cut ties, because she only lives 6 mi. away from me. I do go for weeks at a time and sometimes a month without talking to her and then she'll call me. Usually everything is okay, just small talk. As long as no emotions are involved, I can handle her.

My decision is based solely on self-preservation. My only guilt comes from the grandparents. Her parents are still alive and 300 mi. away and they expect me to be her savior, and that is unfair in my eyes, and makes me want to cut ties with them. And they're older and they were partly my saviors so...its complicated.

(((((HUGS))))) to you and to Kimmydawn.

Take Care.
Kimberly.
