Were You Expecting to arrive at Heal and Forgive? If so you were re-directed to my new blog.

The Heal and Forgive blog was born out of the publication of my first book, “Heal and Forgive.” I am happy that the blog has been helpful to a robust readership.

After my publisher recently went out of business the book was re-released under the title, “Mother, I Don’t Forgive You,” which is more in keeping with the premise of the book. I decided to re-title my blog along with the book.

I hope you will continue to peruse the posts and join in on the various discussions including our right as survivors to decide our own healing journey, with or without forgiveness.

The back story on the title change can be found on the post directly below:

    Hello, I am looking forward to you being on Sallie's show. My name is Lori and I have a long standing relationship problem which I spoke with Sallie about and she told me you would be on her show. My problem is with my adult daughter who is 26 and has done many "unforgivable" abusive things, and even though I always let her know she is still loved, I am met only with rejection at least each month. I can only hope that time will help but at this point, i need to break all ties with her, even if it means not seeing my grandchildren as she insists on disrespecting and actually thinking of ways to hurt me. I say , " enough is enough"

    Dear Lori, 

    Thank you!

    I agree that sometimes, we need to take some time to heal.

    During my 14-year estrangement from my mother, our time apart afforded me the time to heal, deal with my hurt, anger, and the intensity of my emotions.  I also learned to maintain clear, respectful boundaries in a manner that safeguarded my own well-being.

    I wish you well on your healing journey.

    Warm regards, 
    Nancy

    "Get over it" vs. "Go through it"
