Hi, thank you to the creator of this site. I have a 16 year old step daughter who will be coming to visit in two weeks from boarding school. Before anyone reading this jumps to the conclusion that I am some evil step monster who had her shipped off to boarding school that is not what happened. In the years before I met my husband he had been widowed and left to raise two children. Their mom had an unexpected heart attack and past away it was sudden and I'm sure extremely painful for them.
