How do you say goodbye to a life long friend and deal with it?

I've had this trouble B4. Not easy. If you feel you've made the appropriate step then my guess is only time will mend that wound. If your not sure you did then You made a strong point of telling her how you feel. The problem seems to be that she has nothing to talk with you about or that she is torn in too many directions. It's not the same having the 1st kid as it is the 2nd & they are years apart. The 12 yr old alone is a full time job. If your friend works then it's more. Taking care of a baby is hard work. You put those 3 with a husband & house & she is probably ready for a meltdown in the time department. when did you last see her? My friends & I have gone months with no word then find our ways back because life can eat us up. I hope everything can work out or you can make your peace because it can be harder than burying someone. You lose a piece of yourself & a person in your life & they are alive somewhere. Good luck to you.
