Been w DH a total of 10 yrs.Married 5 years to DH with 3 adult sd, ages 27, 30 and 35. I have 3 adult children from previous marriage, twin daughters aged 27 and son age 30. BM had serious alcohol and depression issues, some requring hospitalization, moved out of her own choice and left DH w sds when youngest sd was aged 7,smacking up cars, etc. bm moved back into house when middle sd had a breakdown at age 10, but remained in a back bedroom 24/7 while house somehow functioned around her.
