- I got an email from ES a couple days ago. He said:"Here are some pictures of your granddaughters...3 of them now. I can't seem to put a stem on the apples. Macy is almost 5 and has been asking about her "other" grandma and grandpa. I'm not sure...
- This may be the problem........I noticed that, when I started a new topic and clicked on "Submit", the tab at the top of the page showed the little 'wheel' turning and turning.......like it wasn't submitting it.So I walked away, got some coffee,...

- and I heard a quote that I think applies to us:"We must let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the one that is waiting for us."Joseph CampbellMaybe this resonates more with me because just the other day I said to my SIL "my life sure...
- Just a thought: I ran to the store earlier and on the way home I heard the Leona Lewis song "Better in Time". I know that she's talking about a husband/boyfriend, but a couple of the lines struck home with me re: estrangement. It will 'all get...
- I was poking around Facebook today and happened on (really wasn't looking for it) a pic of ES and DIL. I thought I was in a pretty good place (considering). But as soon as I saw his picture, I immediately got angry. That surprised me a bit. I...
- I just saw this on Facebook today:"When you come out of the storm you won’t be the same person that walked in. That’s what the storm is all about."I'm not quite sure I get the meaning.........so we need to go through storms to become a different...
- Thinking of you all today.........be kind to yourselves........ :-)
- ES had sent me an email re: expecting new baby (the third one). I did not answer. When he didn’t get an answer he sent me a long email……blah, blah, blah. Same crap, different day. He’s tried so hard….I don’t care about my...
- Just received the first email in over two years from ES. Here's what he says:"Just wanted to let you know that you have another grandchild on the way so you don't have to hear it on facebook; i feel bad for letting it happen that way last time. ...
- As usual, I was on Pinterest this morning. (There needs to be a group here for "Pinterest addicts").I saw a quote and immediately identified with it......maybe some of you all can, too:"If you're tired of drama in your life, quit being the...
- I'll admit that I'm hooked on Pinterest. I saw a quote that seemed to apply to us:"What screws us up most in life is the picture in our head of how it's supposed to be". That's how I feel. We're not supposed to get older and have to deal with...
- I hope, despite our issues, that we all can smile and say we're thankful for what we have. Our family is estranged from our son and his family, but there's also a little 'twist' to my story: When I was a teenager I had a baby and had to give him up...
- I'm just curious: how many of us in this situation have EC who live far away, or nearby? My ES and his wife and 2 little ones live on the other side of the country from me. I think that that's a blessing. It's hard enough to have been put through...
- Hi everyone.....I've just joined your group, and want to say 'thank you' for having this discussion group. Already I don't feel like such a freak....LOL. I can identify with just about everything you all have said. My story....middle son, age 37,...
