Everyone's moving!<BR/><BR/>I can feel the pain radiating off this page. What you're facing is so incredibly complex, and to have little to no support wherever you turn makes it that much harder.<BR/><BR/>Would there be any way you could have a conversation with your mother specifically to address the issues that you feel she isn't supportive about? Perhaps you could write them in a letter as you describe above - briefly, not in detail, and with a request for her to set aside some time to have a long conversation with you about them. Her dismissal of YOUR experience seems to be a quick reaction designed more to avoid having to think and talk about the past. It would be more difficult for her to react that way after hearing from you, in detail, just how hard it is to live without your daughter.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps when she understands how completely wrong she is to think you could have surrendered your daughter casually, her mind will be more open to your experience. I hope so.Third Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06310395341252295955noreply@blogger.com
