Mother broken-hearted over daughter’s life

She is not in agreement with many of her 45-year-old daughter’s life choices.
“I came to visit because I hoped my daughter would listen to me. But I have never experienced in my whole life someone who is so blind, who cannot see. She is a different human being now, someone who I do not remember. So I go home and my heart is broken again.
“This life is short, but I have to keep believing there is still hope, you know?”
