I had a mother again and she was willing to be a parent

After she became a disciple, our relationship changed. She was sober, and emotionally 24 years old, only four years older than me. I had a mother again and she was willing to be a parent. It's taken me time and prayer, and a whole lot of gratitude, to get vulnerable with her, and to surrender to God, and switch roles in effect. I strive not to be self-righteous, and she has gone from being tough-skinned to tender-hearted. Although I'm still healing, I am eternally grateful, I can sleep at night knowing that I really know my mother's character, now that she's sober and I know she's home safe. She and I are letting God be God. He's in control and he's answered my prayer. My mom has a longer life ahead, God willing.

I don't know if this story is appropriate. since it's from a co-dependent point of view. but I thought I'd give it a shot.
