I'm having to do a very difficult thing and cut my mother out of my life, possibly for good. Though she is a Christian, her attitude and personality are so negative, critical, judgmental, and every other negative trait, that I can't be around her anymore, nor can I allow her to affect my life negatively. I'm 43, a Christian of 30 years, and through all my years in therapy for various reasons, this is the hardest move I've ever had to make. I need God's strength and His wisdom to know that even when she gets mad and reacts to this, it is her who must take responsibility for her words and actions, not me.

I have acute Bronchial Asthma as well as Bronchitis that lays dormant all the time. I'm into my 2nd week of Acute Bronchitis taking Prednisone and on my 2nd anti-biotic. I have 35 medical issues altogether, but this one lasted 12 weeks last time flat on my back in bed. I live alone but with a cat. I do have contact with family and friends, but hate Bronchitis. I never smoked, did drugs or drank. I've been faithfully pure since age 13 and I'm 43 now. Thanks and PTL.
