[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 747336, member: 18516"] Beta, the only way I have been able to come to terms with this is through acceptance. I too played the "what if" game to the point I was losing sleep. Always wondering and worrying. I finally had to accept that yes, my very worst fear could come to pass. I had to accept that he could die and I may never know. For me, it comes down to this, I'm either going to live my life to the fullest or I'm going to waste my life worrying about things that I have zero control over. In order to maintain my own sanity I have to stay detached from my son. I will always love him but he is toxic to me and I must keep my distance. Don't be too hard on yourself. This is not easy and it takes time. You will get there. ((HUGS)) [/QUOTE]
