I am a mother of 2 daughters, ages 21 and 16. My older daughter has left home and is on her own living with some friends in a rental house. She works as a waitress; she's a good one and seems to like her job. My younger daughter is a high school junior and is doing well in school. Lately I have been getting very sad because I realize that my daughters will soon be gone from home and living their own lives. This is good, of course, but the passage of time is breaking my heart. I cry off and on all day. I'm 57 years old, have a part-time job as a cleaning lady. I still feel guilty about my past relationship with my older daughter. She has diabetes and her teen years were difficult because of that plus I was having mental problems at the time. I'm afraid that when she was about 9 or 10 years old there was some abuse involved. It has never happened since then, and she seems to be getting her life back on track, but I still feel guilty for how I treated her. We have a cordial relationship but are not close. She has also abandoned her faith, and I'm sad about that as well. I'm very close to my younger daughter but wish I could make it up with her sister. Please pray that the Lord will heal the hurts between me and my older daughter and will help me keep the close relationship I have with her sister. Please also pray that I will be able to adjust to my new dentures, which is a little difficult. My teeth being pulled for some reason triggered all this sadness about my children. Why, I don't know. Thank you.
