Feeling Deflated
After 2 1/2 years of waiting for my girl to reconnect with my husband and myself, the message finally came last week that she would like us to visit. My forum family know the heartache I have been experiencing all this time waiting and hoping for this day. So spirits were up, emotions all over the place and just plain and simply eager to see her and give her the biggest hug and love. Then she changed her mind 😞. No explanation but did txt me asking for money, nothing more, zilch. I was really getting close to acceptance of her estrangement and now it feels like all the work I put into getting to that space has dwindled away overnight. The heartache has returned with a vengeance. Does she comprehend this? Does schizophrenia totally rob one of empathy? I’m just tired of this roller coaster ride of emotions. Okay just sad.
