Life did get better for me. My mom died around Mother's Day 3 years ago,that pack of canker sores that used to be my family, and myself are permanently estranged. Life is good after all! No lousy, good for nothing relatives to play off you.

Hopefully for me, mum should die after me. I would'nt be able to bear her death. She means to much and without her I would never be able to move on.
