Hello, I am new to the list and finding out we are not alone. my family, my daughter and her husband left my life. I have a year old grandson i've never seen. my son-in-law removed her and my grandson from my life, over religion, and what he thinks my sins are. It was over money too. There was a trust. I have several friends, and my son, who are in my life. I am blessed I know that, as you can't really count on family all the time. My family is spit and I am in pain over it, facing a very ruff future with all these surgeries. I wonder why I should bother sometime, but I do have these friends who do help me to cope. There are people on this list I am finding who can help. Religion can so devide us. it shouldn't be that way. ginnie
