    Definitely understand the "mixture of emotions". Wish the best for you.

    I'm so sorry. It's very sad that your children have never had a grandmother.

    65 seems very young in this day and age. Wishing you peace.

    Out of all of the ridiculous things that this religion imposes on their people, this is the worst type of transgression. I am so sorry.

    So sorry to hear this My heart goes out to you; I too understand the mixture of emotions. May you find peace (and may this cult just go the heck away...it's horrible what some people do - or rather, DON'T do - in its name. Most loving people, indeed!)

    Jb she was still your mom and I know this is a very sad situation for you. You didn't much say hello in later years, and didn't get to say goodbye. You have no feeling of closure. I would suggest getting some pictures together and making an album.

    the only thing you can do is accept that she was who she was, and this cult no doubt made her worse, and it was not your fault. I hope she rests in peace and you can take whatever happy times you shared and remember them well.

    Fulfillment of prophecy -- "no natural affection".

    Sorry for your loss and the emotional trauma it must be.

    I'm sorry for your loss. I felt weird after my father died. I hated him, but was sad when he died. My shrink said that the death of a parent like that is sad because it's the death of hope that one day there might be a change.

    Oh wow. Geez that is terrible. Best wishes to you and yours. Just know that in her heart she loved you but may not have been able to show it. Take care
