You are so doing the right thing!! It even comes across in your posts how much better you feel about life

Your grandma is just concerned for you so you did well in letting her say her piece but don't let her put you off your future!!!

As for your parents, at the end of the day it will be up to them to keep the lines of communication open between them and you. You are hoping to have contact with them but if they choose not to then it is their problem and their loss!

Don't dwell on the past - thats over and done with and it can't be changed or repeated. Things are on the up for you!!!! and we are all here for you to help out in any way we can - you will never be alone
