      Thank you for your encouraging words. As for advice, sorry but I really cant say anything but keep praying for her. That was what my hubby did for me and evidently it worked. As of the first I have been clean from cocaine for 10 months. I am ready to celebrate that year! I havent had a drink in 10 days and that is incredible for me. I grew up in a house with 2 alcoholic parents but my mom quit about 10 years before she passed away. As for my dad he drinks about a case of beer a day, but he lives on the other side of town and we have little contact with one another. Like I said though keep your faith high and your prayers even HIGHER! What part of Florida are you from? Jacksonville here. I am here if you ever need to get things off of your chest....Brandy
