Forrest, One thought comes to my mind and its in the title of a song...........
Altho this was a son / father relationship it holds very true

The cats in the cradle...........llalalla

My father left me emotionally at about the age of 13, I always thought i was a daddy's girl.....He was an alcoholic workaholic.
I felt devastated!, If he had only reached out to me, if only he had tried to have a relationship with me..
If only's.......Have plagued me alot of my life.

My Dad committed suicide when i was 27 he was 52, We never formed a bond.....he actually killed himself after we had a blow up about my boyfriend ( Whom is my Hubby for 28 years now )
We spoke words of anger, and things went silent.....

Please try to connect with your daughter...It just takes a little effort on both parts.

Mach.gave U very good advise.

I'm sorry your in the situation U are. Im a long time lurker on this site..and I have read every post of yours from the beginning.

Best Wishes; Sunny
