Then,
the very daughter, who I protected (from being by the AMA aborted), and who I lovingly nurtured & raised, & homeschooled on sheer FUN, so she could graduate from college with honors while only 17, - when she got married, she said to me: "Mom should anything ever happen to you, you can't come here to recover. Sorry."

So, because of medical malpractice I have needed a place where in fact I can recover. I can't even begin to describe, what it feels like to be abandoned, no less by the very people who you gave your life for, to protect.

Well, this is just another post to explain why I don't much come here anymore, aside the fact that most people don't bother responding, at the same time that I have positively encouraged so many here.

Oh well, carry on!

I'm very sorry you've had to go through this. I can't speak for your situation, but most of the families I know personally would never have completely abandoned their parents, including my own grandfather who was abusive to his children on many, many levels. His children don't particularly want him to live in their home because many of them have children, but we pay nearly $2000 a month just for his room in a nice retirement villiage close to one of his daughters.

I'm really sorry about what you're going through and the only thing I would recommend is finding out WHY your daughter feels this way and listen to what she has to say.
