Thank You!

Thank you Nancy.  I do remember some of your struggles with your family that were occurring right after I joined here.  I know that tough love is the way to go, but like you say, it's hard to be "the bad guy".  You are always so giving and so helpful to others.  I really appreciate you!

My thoughts and prayers are with you.  My sister is bipolar so I'm familar.  We can talk now but there was a time I wasn't able to.  I wasn't able to handle the ups and downs to the point I had trouble caring for my own family.  Thankfully, in one of her better moments she asked our mother to care for her two daughters (1 & 2 at that time).  At least we knew they were safe.  Then she moved out of state.  She has the diagnosis now and is on medication so she is doing better but will never be normal.  I'm glad you have been able to come here with this. 

Thank you, Diane.  I'm sorry that you have lived through bi-polar hell with your sister.  Yes, I do understand.  Chris has not yet been willing to admit she has a problem and needs help managing it.  I worry for my other daughter who will inherit this mess when I am gone.  It's an unfair burden to place on a sister.  I appreciate you sharing with me.  It helps to know we are not alone.
