You often have wishes of *what if*.You are an amazingly strong person to come through what you have. All I can say is that everyone has demons and we all choose to deal with it in our own way.I had a mum who chose drink and then an ex hubbie (who was drunkenly violent and didn't remember)and 2 ex son-in-laws one of whom died due to his drinking problem leaving two young children behind. All of them had a sort of *justifiable* reason (problems in childhood etc). But it didn't make things easier for those on the receiving end.I came across your blog not knowing it beforehand. But felt that I had to give you a passing *hug*.All I can say is that given time you will find that you now have the chance to do things that you never could have before.Please have hope, you will meet someone who will *see you* and *appreciate you* for the amazing soul that you are.I found my soulmate when I wasn't looking and so did my daughters.There is life after this trauma so please put yourself out into the universe someone is waiting there for you. It will take time and if you were my close friend I would say please speak to someone (a counsellor?) about your feelings and your sense of loss.But please see the amazing future that is there waiting for you. :) Take care hunny bunny, and *big hugs* <br />love Goldensunflower xxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978906014166411621.post-22035679741308638432022-01-13T14:26:25.055+00:002022-01-13T14:26:25.055+00:00It's a fabulous film, isn't it, Addy?

Because of a traumatic childhood and teenage years (he came to live with us at 14) I think drink is his way of coping. Unfortunately he is in the music business and drink comes with the job it seems.<br />I'm not sure if there's a way of helping someone like that, I've tried talking.<br />I'm hoping that as he gets older the appeal may fade.<br />Briony<br />xcrafty cat cornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06251582085392890533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3978906014166411621.post-23303835433545303542022-01-10T12:41:10.457+00:002022-01-10T12:41:10.457+00:00If I were your doctor I think I would have prescri...If I were your doctor I think I would have prescribed "I'll Never Love Again" because it made you cry and allowed you to release some of the pent up feelings inside you. It's good that Kay was with you at the time because she would have understood precisely where those tears were coming from.

I find crying (which I do very rarely) somewhat cathartic and cleansing. A new me often emerges, more ready to take on the days tasks.<br /><br />Happy New Year Addy. I wish you a good one full of excellent health, some close friends and the love of a dear daughter.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09895379382598203558noreply@blogger.com
