@Buffy01 I hear you. I have not found a way to make grief go away except by focusing my attention elsewhere. Gratitude has helped me a lot. Also my biological parents were an important part of my life, but now my extended family and friends are here for me.

When dad died 6 years ago, I realized that all my hopes for a different childhood could lead nowhere now that he was gone. I gave up on those long lost hopes and it seemed to start to drop away. I was free now to live as my heart led me to live. It was a whole new beginning for me.
