Guest guest Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 , Thank you for your kind words and well wishes. I'm very close to my daugthers...Keeley has a younger sister named Meghan, who is 12....and there is NOTHING I wouldn't do for them. I'd walk through fire if it was something one of them needed. I was raised by a single mom, who DIDN'T put me first, in fact, she was verbally, emotionally, and sometimes physically abusive. It took me years to get over that, and even now I don't have a great relationship with her. I am careful not to say bad things about her in front of my girls, but still, they don't like her much either....they can feel that she's not a loving and caring person. Thankfully, they get all the love they can handle from my husband's parents, and my dad. I promised myself that my children would know that they were loved, wanted, and the most important thing in my life. Keeley knows that my taking her to see this psychiatrist is not meant as a punishment or because I think she is " bad " , but because I love her so much and want her to get the help she needs, so that she can grow into a strong, healthy, and happy woman. I didn't get help until I was well into my 20's, and a lot of damage was done before I did. I don't want her to suffer like that. Honestly, I don't really care if she ever realizes what I went through for her....that's not important to me. The most important thing to me is that she remembered that she was loved.
