[QUOTE="Star*, post: 320322, member: 4964"] I'm glad to see you back. My sympathies for the loss of your grandchild. I'm sure that was a very difficult time for you all. I think that few things can be as much of a revelation as a parent to have survived living with our children, suffering right along side them and finally having someone else look at you after ALLOWING TOUGH LOVE to occur and literally ruin everyone than for someone in a position of real authority to say "You know what? You're right. I agree with you. How awful this has been for you both." I don't need sympathy, I need - encouragement. I don't need a hand out, I need - a hand up. I don't need your empathy, I need a break. Because YOU have NO idea what it's like to live with a kid like this. The people HERE do. But outside of us? Nope - you couldn't possible know what a day in our life is like. If one more person outside of here casually tells me to hang in there? LOL - I may invite them for a sleep over and bolt the doors from the inside with keyed locks. (We're equipped) :raspberry-tounge: As a parent who understands and is waiting for a day like yours? I'm very happy for you both. Especially for your daughter. May this be the break she needs to have some quality of life, and so that you actually get a little breathing room. WE get it.....we really do. Hugs. Keep us updated. Hugs Star [/QUOTE]
