Your words aren't upsetting, they're the truth. We know that. Whether she has a year left to live or not I don't know. She denied it. Three months ago, after another long period of SD not speaking to her, she made up that she had cancer so SD would speak to her again - emotional blackmail of the worst kind. I don't doubt she has liver disease, she certainly looks as if she has, and I'm damned sure the doctors have told her to quit immediately. But, whether she's got a year, or more, or less I don't know. What i do know is that she has a nearly 14 year old daughter who her father & I love so very very much. That's why this woman's abhorrent treatment of her own flesh and blood kills me.
