Thankfully my sister did not show up at the party so I was able to relax. Nobody at the party even asked me about my IF except my grandmother. She told me to eat lots of pasta and turn the TV off at night. Then she said "I hope you don't think I am being fresh" I love her =)Simonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707429755251982900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035913905233652003.post-79366225785458486972011-04-11T11:02:38.498-04:002011-04-11T11:02:38.498-04:00I am so sorry for your recent loss. So horrible! ...I am so sorry for your recent loss. So horrible! IF is really so hard and nasty!! I hate that your sister can not be there for you and understand all the pain and heartache that you are feeling. I hope one day she will see this and reconnect. Sometimes, we just need to allow time and space for healing and clarity. I do feel your pain.<br /><br />My mom is mostly ok, but she makes remarks that feel like sniper attacks, "instead of buying a house, why dont you just adopt". Yes, I feel like saying to my mother, I will live in a 674square foot apartment with my DH and adopted baby! Like, I can not have a house and a child! O, and remarks "via text messages" from a friend recently just sent me batty! I decided I can not talk with her anymore...just too painful!<br /><br />My thoughts and prayers are with you!!St. Rita's Roseshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13817034377529765683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035913905233652003.post-8633954771554003202011-04-11T10:55:02.841-04:002011-04-11T10:55:02.841-04:00This is so sad :( But it sounds like your sister ...This is so sad :( But it sounds like your sister needs a lot of prayer. She is obviously lacking compassion. I will pray for you too, that this will one day be resolved. And not just because you will have a child someday.

I'm so sorry f...Thanks for sharing your story. I'm so sorry for the hurt you've experienced. I think I would feel the same way as you do. IF causes so many rifts and divisions. <br /><br />For me, it's between my mother and I. She is like your sister....no understanding or sympathy, hurtful and inappropriate comments, no desire to understand, etc. I haven't spoken to her in months because she can't get past the fact that I haven't made her a grandmother yet...as if it's my choice. And the hard part about rifts in a family is family doesn't go away like a bad friend could. <br /><br />Prayers for you and your relationship with family members!Perfect Power in Weaknesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03863765696254711267noreply@blogger.com
