I apologize. I did not realize you’ve been doing his care for so long and why. I just hate how she reaches out and appears to want to make things better, and then she just treats you horribly Thank you for caring. I know you all do and I appreciate it. I know that's why I have been on edge too. I'm waiting for it to happen again. Other than some really terrible text messages during this time, I've been able to catch a break from it and it's been alright maybe even a little bit peaceful. And how do you as a mother say that? I love my child. Its terrible to have lost one like I did and then to think I might not be able to have a relationship with my remaining one. 😪 The thing is I know she has it in her to get her shit together. She is considering going in the navy. She told me the Navy recruiter told her that all her court fines must be paid and her driver's license must be reinstated in full and then she can go. I am hoping so much that she does. do you think some of Chloe‘s issues have to do with the grief around Esther’s passing? Maybe the structure of the navy would be good for her. |

Yes, I know grief is heavy for her. And because of her instability and my own grief, I have had a lot of trouble helping her deal with it. I keep encouraging therapy. I have offered to pay for it even. But she won't go. |

naby64 - would you consider doing another section of it? I’m hiking a section next year, super excited. Most definitely!! My goal was to start in SJPdP and cross over the Pyrenees. I had a 14 day short list to make it from start to finish with some accommodations. It was lofty. However, I psyched myself out at Pamplona and called it. At this point, at some time I do want to go back. Sarria to Santiago to get my compostela. I would love to walk the Meseta part. So maybe I just do sections. Which section are you walking? |

I am hoping so much that she does. My youngest is a Navy recruiter. If you have any questions, let me know. The Navy was the best thing for him. He was the baby and didn't know what he wanted to do. The structure of it was wonderful. I want to say he blossomed but probably better to say he grew up. He is engaged and getting married in December. His contract is up next June. 9 years. I think he is going to go reserves after that. I will say this and say it gently, she needs to have her sh%t together. In boot camp if someone isn't pulling their load or goofing off, etc., the division calls out their own. They have to get through battlestations at the end. YDS's division had one guy who just didn't get it. Didn't want to work as a team. The RC gave them the option of starting over for another BC session or they needed to handle him. They handled him and all graduated. I am a very proud mom of all 3 of my kids but this one has done well. |

That's why I say, I *know* she has the fortitude to get her shit together. Esther was different. She had very little fight in her. The depression overcame her. Chloe is a firework. She's got what she needs, she just needs to get away from alcohol, the boyfriend, and take care of her mental health. I think she would thrive there. And I am glad your boy is thriving there too. |
