My birth parents did not raise me and I was never adopted. I was raised by my birth moms sister. My birth mom has never been close and made about a dozen contacts with me from 9yrs to 39yrs. She is now ill with some health problems. My Aunt (the sister to my b-mom who raised me) plays on emotions to control my behavior. Had to learn that in therapy. In late 05 I thought my b-mom was going to die so I visited her, too say goodbye and give forgiveness. She didn't die and calls crying all the time about how things are (shes's lonely and left 3 other kids who are adults and none of us speak to each other) and what she should have done different. I am torn as to have a relationship with her, which is very difficult for me or to cut the strings. It is a one sided relationship where we talk only about her life, not my issues or her biological grandchildren and my family. Does anyone have similar issues out there? The emotional roller coaster has taken its toll, any advice?
