Son estranged due to controlling spouse

My husband and I are going through the same thing. It is absolutely heartbreaking and I feel it both physically and emotionally. As we walk through this, we lean on our faith, researching the topic, reaching out to other family and friends, and search persistently for a way to fill the void. I've come to realize a renewed and profound gratitude for those that are holding us up. Additionally, what I'm learning is that I feel OK for awhile and think that I'm moving on, but then an event or communication drags it all back and I'm clawing my way back to some kind of "new normal". I'm wondering if there is a group of people like us that meet in person?

I have been facing trying my best to have a loving relationship with my son, his wife and my grand children 8 and 10.
Very long story/ struggle. D.I.L. should be the adult narcissist poster child. That D.I.L masqueraded as a Christian is especially challenging. However trusting The Lord according to Roman's 8:28 plus other scriptures is vital. D.I.L. isolated herself and the children from my son and our small clan. It's turned into a tangle of court and D.S.S./ lawyers $$$ ordeal. Thakfully my son is now free to connect with us in person and the phone.
Regarding a support group? PI much prefer face to face connection with other people; in the same room = NOT ZOOM. However I very much appreciate the sharing that's happening here.
Thank you!🙏💗
