It is very hard for me today, 41 years ago, she was on her way into this world.  Today
I am so sad, wish we could share the day again.

Dear Irenic,
Thinking of you today.  It is so sad that the happiest days of our life should be remembered like this.  My ODD is 42.  When I look back, it seems everything went downhill when she turned 40.

Love....Jill

Iranic,

My heart goes out to you. I know it's very tough for you right now but don't lose hope, it may take a while but she'll be back. Have faith, everything and anything is possible. I hope in the meantime you find peace.
                 
                            Hugs.

I'm really glad to hear that, Irenic!
This too shall pass.  All is well.

I am so happy you heard from her, it must have made your day. Hopefully it is the beginning of a reconciliation.

I did not respond to her, thought it might spook her, too much too soon.  I am going to wait for her
to call or text more, and yes, I have tried texting her a zillion times, I was so shocked, but nothing else from her
so I assume she still does not want contact.  Its in her court I think, I have tried and tried, maybe it has to be
at her pace.  Thanks to all of you, I know we all share broken hearts and pining for our loved ones.  I
am so wanting her to do more, but maybe it is a power greater than my hands right now.

Irenic,

I'm glad your daughter thought of you. Hang in there friend.
                                  Blessings.

Thanks Barbie, I guess I will never stop hoping she will do more than a text, it breaks my heart.....I am hanging in,
had a glorious Thanksgiving with friends.  I can't help but think she thought of me as we always had Thanksgiving dinners
together.  She was born on Thanksgiving, it was always special.  I know we all are in agony at this time of year, but
it helps if even like you respond.  Thanks so much.
