[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry, OP. Your mother sounds like a nightmare. But I think you're probably deluding yourself if you think she hasn't worked hard at turning grandma against you -- especially if grandma is infirm and dependent upon her. I understand wanting to introduce your daughter. I really do. My mom passed away before my child was born and it is an unfillable hole. What I do is talk about my mom a lot. I tell my child funny stories and try very hard to give my child a sense of who she was and how much she would have loved him. It's the best I've got. It sounds like you were very close to your grandmother in the past, and I'd bring that alive for you and your child. I know she's not dead, and there's always hope of reconciliation, but that sounds unlikely. Your therapist's advice sounds solid and hopefully can help you get to a more peaceful place with this.[/quote]
