I have closed those doors to the family but I haven’t closed the door to my daughter yet as I can feel her struggling with some issue surrounding me. I shared how I felt (saddened) and that’s all I can do. I would like all the anger and resentment to drain away and no longer feel like a victim that I don’t have decent family relationships.

*BTW, I had a difficult time finding my way back to this post on my cell phone. I thought there might be a link in the email I received but there wasn’t one.
