My dad stopped talking to his dad, and now we have stopped talking to him (actually its he who has stopped with us - but it's a bit mutual...) so.. Yes... It has worried me for a long time that this would happen... I would be devastated if it happened with my own child. But I will be working so very hard and make conscious decisions about how I interact with my kids (if I get any)... So FX I can stop the cycle...

I miss my mum every day, and I wish she called me more. I hate that she always seems so busy. I wish she knew how to be what I need her to be, but I know that she too, for her own reasons, is just surviving... And in the end... It is DH and I that need to be there for each other, cause he is my everything, and he will be the one who gets me through. She can't. No matter how much I want her to. It makes me sad, because she used to be my everything. I just don't know how to get it back.

Sorry, I digress...
