What was one of the hardest things you've ever had to do or decisions you've ever had to make? (59)
Ccincy: Although i didn't like doing so but I broke off a 30 yr friendship with someone who I treated like they were one of my own.I stood by that person through all their good,bad and inbetween times when their own family turned on them.I guess I was way too busy being kind and helpful to them I couldn't see that they were only taking advantage of me.Mostly for their own financial benefit.
What's that saying that 'No good deed goes unpunished'.I'll still continue to help when I'm needed no matter what.I'm not going to let one negative thing take that away from me.

I made the decision to go to therapy to stay in good standing with a family member. I'd rather not elaborate why but it was the hardest decision I ever made. I had to do it in order to keep peace in the family and because that person was important to me, I did it. The important thing is that what needed to be accomplished was accomplished so it was a good decision.------ This thread is Archived ------
The hardest thing i ever did was walk away from a woman who I still loved but who was definitely bi polar. I tried so hard to fix her and in the end it almost destroyed me too. That experience in 95 cast a long shadow for years afterwards

I will not go along with any family member just to get along or keep peace if it's something I don't really want to do.I would feel like I was being bullied into doing it.

The hardest decision I ever made was back in 2001 when I decided to move out of state, 1000 miles away from my children and family.

Now that would be a really tough decision when it comes to family and children.
Having a son and family of my own I can imagine how you must've felt.

Having to tell my parents that their son of 35 had died in Sri Lanka.
He was on holiday with his wife and dropped dead in the Indian Ocean early in the morning. Due to communication difficulties ,my sister-in-law was unable to phone the U.K. and everything had to be done through Columbo.
One of the worst days of my life when I took that call.

You are right Ccincy. I did come back a few weeks later to see my oldest granddaughter born. I finally moved back in 2002. It was a hard decision to make but one that I have never regretted.

online today!I cannot just name one. I have to name the top three. They are equal in the pain I felt having to do them. To tell the doctors to let my father go it was past time. They called me and told me they thought his heart was fixing to stop and wanted to know if I wanted them to revive him if it did. To hold my moms hand as she drew her last breath. And that one I really wanted to do. She had been such a good mum and I wanted to be there with her when the time came. Even though I was prepared it still hurt greatly. And the third was to let my husband go with as much dignity as I could. These three events happened in less than a five year span. Not only were they hardest thing I have ever done they were the most painful.

I feel for you as I did the same, but on my Birthday.I willed him to stay, then realised it was better for him to be free of pain,as my own would slowly ease over time.

I know the feeling. You really want them to stay. But you know it is time. In my fathers case it was past time. And I know he would of wanted to go. I felt like an orphan my mum and dad passed a month apart from each other. And even though I had been caregiver and I was an adult I still felt like an orphan
Your birthday for some reason that seems so sad and so wrong that life deals us cards like that------ This thread is Archived ------
