@Deb5 he ignores my messages so I don’t bother . I have tried to phone him but I’m blocked. After my happiness on Weds that things were getting back to normal, I now feel back to square one . My son is a very cruel young man and I’m ashamed to say he’s mine
My daughters the same , was never really one for hugging people whereas my wife loved hugs , it used to upset her that our daughter was like that . Crazy thing is now my daughter hugs me all the time , guess she’s afraid of losing me as well now this cruel world has made her go through this at just 18
Just dropped daughters familys easter eggs off, and because i’m going to my other daughters little ones birthday tomorrow along with my sons family, she let rip. All because my son didn’t come to her little ones 1st birthday. Bloody families I wish you could have a happy pill for them.
@Punto @Dino13
Just do what makes you happy. Ignore them and dont get involved or take sides. My Grandmother used to play my mum and her siblings off against each other. Some never spoke again, even after 50yrs. No on in the family was interested when she passsed, she was cruel and spiteful. So just live your own life. Good luck.

OMG ! That’s awful. I’ve lost 4 since 2012. My daughter 31, then my mum, then dad and now my husband. One every four years . I’m dreading 2028 cos I’d better get plenty done before then.
Yes, it has changed me too. Made me realise how much time I’ve wasted on “family” who don’t care. And being bothered about stuff that doesn’t matter. Now it’s my time to do what l want . Take care, here if you need to chat.
@Ilovehorses thank you ! I’ve only seen him once but it’s early days . I think new life gives us reason for optimism and joy . I don’t have any other joy in my life these days .
I’m so sorry your daughter would love another child but it isn’t happening. That’s difficult isn’t it . Hopefully one day she will finally have her baby in her arms ……
Take care xxx
@Punto well considering they’ve got an adorable new baby I really cannot see why my son seems so dissatisfied. He’s rude , spoiled and selfish. He isn’t grieving. He’s done with all that . Sadly I’ll be grieving for the rest of my life - something which he has overlooked xxx
@Ilovehorses
Thank you. I used to walk but got a bit of plantar fasciitis from walking on concrete floors at work, so I can’t walk far without my feet hurting. A few of miles and I’m limping. I keep going though. Plus my Bulldog can’t walk far either ! He’s allergic to all sorts, his airway closes off if I take him in a wood, found that out be accident when he collapsed and I had to use an inhaler on him. Scared to take him very far now, so he’s got a dog pushchair, which I feel stupid pushing. So I gave up.
@Ilovehorses well my son is being very selfish at the moment. Since my partner died very suddenly I’ve understandably needed support. I now find out that his wife has told him he’s not allowed to do things for me ( it’s been like this since around November) . I only found out on Saturday though . She told me on the phone that I’ve been too demanding. I’m in shock . This might result in them choosing not to see me , depending on what she decides. I’m sick of it all actually. I would trade in my partner for my son , his wife and the baby if I could . We were so much in love it breaks my heart every day that he’s not here
Hi @Ladysuisei6 it’s so hard without our special person. Nobody can understand unless they have been through it. I find it soul destroying. Was with my husband for fifty years and findjng life without him really difficult. Even getting out of bed is a daily struggle.x
@Ilovehorses
Just got to get on with it, l don’t want to sit and be miserable. I want to live a little before I’m too old to do it. Some days l could just sit and cry. There’s only 1 person l can depend on and that’s me, so I’ve got to get through it. Take care.
