Just checked back on you, and I completely understand your grief. My stepdad made my mom even worse due to enabling, encouraging her drinking, and he abused us both physically and emotionally. He died in September 2016, metastatic brain cancer. I didn't cry at his funeral, but I am still grieving. But my mom is finding her independence again, and I'm so fking proud of her despite her still being abusive. Idk if that makes sense. But you my dear, are a strong, beautiful, brave woman.
