Hey Victoria- Stay tough. We know you are because of how you have weathered your crazy journey of TOS. You are a supportive and giving soul and you have provided so much to everyone here.

The last time I lived with my mom was for a summer between school semesters when my daughter was 18 months old. At the end of that summer we totally agreed we would never live in the same house again. Being independent, it would be very very difficult fo me to have to go back on that and live with her again. Clearly your choice was not to live at home with your parents , you were there out of neccessity for a medical condition. For them to fail to understand that and throw you out shows that they really don't have a clue. They should grow up.

I am so sorry for your loss, because that's really what it is. Now, though, you can focus on purging of the bad parts of that relationship and healing the rest of you. Calgary... Wow. sounds like a beautiful place to settle down and relax with your man. To get away and work on creating a new and better lifestyle for the both of you- Perhaps just what the doctor ordered. I always feel most at peace in or near the mountains- that's why I am in California :P


Good luck to you..and may a dog bite your mom's foot!
