There has been posts about this matter many times and even tho we say or we think we know what we’d do if it were one of us, I don’t think we really know until we’re face to face with the hard decision.i hope if she does ask, you’ll be able to find in you're heart the love and compassion you both can live with, no matter what decisions are made. 🌺
