Great post Debbie!! Very sound and wise advise. It is important that we surround ourselves with people who lift us up and aviod those folks who tear us down.

Like Debbie says.... you need to be your priority. You have to do what is best for you and your sister and others will have to accept you limits and boundaries. You deserve all the love you can give yourself.

You sound like a very special lady who has been short changed alot. When enough is enough its time to give yourself the extra love and support that you've been robbed of up till now.

You are so brave and so strong to be able to look at what is going on and wanting more from your life and your relationships. You will win the prize. You, honouring yourself is the prize.

All the very best to you..... take good care.
