[QUOTE="Elsi, post: 741453, member: 23349"] Tish, I am so sorry you are facing so much right now. Sometimes it feels like life just throws everything at us at once. Anyone would have a hard time coping with everything coming at you right now. It sounds like you are already doing the right things - support groups, leaning on your husband, building positive relationships and memories with your son in recovery and grandson. So I don't really have any advice for you - the crises you are facing right now with your sister and brother in law are things you just have to endure and get through right now. I am so sorry, and I hope things start looking up for all of you. I understand the sadness you are feeling over your estranged son. I hope you can let go of the guilt, anger and regret over the past. I don't know your story but you clearly are a mother and grandmother who loves her family and has endured through some very tough situations. Be gentle with yourself right now. Lean on your supports. Ask for help where you need it. Write your feelings here and get them out. Focus on the things in front of you that need your time and attention right now, and let the rest go, as much as you are able. Hugs to you and your family. [/QUOTE]
