Last night / early AM I thought I was going to die, I was scare - Blood pressure 240/130 I had some left over medication - I had stopped taking it (I knew better right?) so I took the medication, did not want to die alone in my bed with no one finding me for ever... This morning, I sent an email to my daughter, asking for forgiveness, I did not care who was guilty, I wanted to make peace, for my sake, for my peace of mind. Hugs.

My daughter and family abandoned me when a Hurricane destroyed our home 7 years ago. Last year she reached out and we tried to work on our relationship. On Christmas Day I received an email from her stating she will only have a relationship with me on HER terms-2 days before a major surgery. I too sacrificed everything for this 41 yo nurse at Mayo. There is nothing left to live for when your life once revolved around your only living child and grandchildren. God have mercy on my grandchildren.

Life is not what it once was. The adult children today are very different than we were. I call it the entitlement generation. The are so self absorbed with themselves and their life that others sit on the back burner including parents. They can be selfish, so self absorbed they only focus on themselves and their family and have entitlement issues. That about sums it up.
