Thanks Dee,

The real bummer is that she continues to tell me I am a horrible person, despite the fact that I was (am) an alcoholic that was sick, and in need of help. My son gets it, he is proud of my accomplishments. I haven't had a relationship (to speak of) with her for years, she only calls when she needs money....and to remind me that I'm a terrible person.

Of coarse, I don't believe this. I know that she is holding on to anger, some of it placed on me without justification. She has chosen to blame all of life's problems on the fact that she saw my addiction. She refuses to take ownership of her own crap.....ugh. Sometimes I feel like she is toxic for me, she just isn't going to let it go.....all of these years later.
