I am impressed not only by your dedication to something that you believe in, but by your ability to get my head out of my self-pitying fog long enough to ask you if you might know of a support group for people who are co-dependants.. or who are living a life of care-giving to the point of losing who they are.. I have, for the last 6 months, taken care of a mother who is suffering from emphyesma, still smokes, is emotionally abusive to me and my family, and is responsible for almost ruining a marriage I have treasured for the last 15 years. Any ideas? imput? thanks... -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!106!729.0!Michelle.Pinkerton Internet: Michelle.Pinkerton@p0.f729.n106.z1.fidonet.org
