Thanks Heather and Shari for your responses. I feel like I have moved on. There are just days that it all creeps back up and makes me really wonder how someone could be so unconscience and selfish -and damanged - to get involved with this devil of a drug. On those days, I go back to the astonishment that he did this to his daughter and his family -and my saddness and anger come back for that day. My daughter has had to pay a large price for his stupidity, and I am the one left to pick up the pieces and handle everything (including a lack of finances since he stopped paying child support). I know there is nothing I can do -it is all completely out of my control. My daughter has refused to speak to or have any correspondence with her fathers family. I don't believe she will ever change her mind on that and I have given up trying to be the mediator. I have let that go. My mom said something yesterday that is so true "There are givers and there are takers". Being that I am a giver, it's just in my nature to want to appease everyone, help those who are hurting, and wish for the best for everyone in my life. That is just me, and at 38, I don't think I will change much. I'm not sure if I will ever NOT wonder how he is doing, if he is okay, hope he gets help. I guess it will just get easier with time...??..
