well, things went completely pear shaped

[No Vested Interest]

9. I know you ache for your daughter and her children, and fizz as well,

going through this pain and hurt at this time, and you're powerless to fix it, as a mama always wants to do.

You're there for your daughter and kids, if only in love and empathy. That's got to help daughter, just knowing that she has the love and support of her Mom. Encourage daughter to leave doors open (figuratively) for children to have a relationship with their father (and his family). This is harder when they're so young that dad/husband hasn't bonded with them as personalities, but can be done when the adults are mature enough to see the long-range picture, and when/if daughter can put aside her grievances and hurt (not easy).

We here unite in empathetic support of fizzgig, and lend an ear to her pain.
