      From EthelM March 11

      You are so right about the wanting something. He is the same way. He acted like he loved us so much, but once he was home for the visit he took off, of course we were carpeting, which was a huge mess. I love it now though. I am to the point where I don't like getting my hopes up. I would rather detach once and for all. I know that sounds bad.

    • Open Families & Friends Of Addicts

      I am 54 years old and have a daughter 24 1/2 that has been addicted to meth for 10+ years. She had a beautiful baby boy 6-1-07. That still did not help her turn around. Neither did an intervention with sending her out of town to a pricey rehab. My grandson is with his father now who seems stable but also an addict that has??? been clean for almost three years. I worry so much for my grandson. I do get to see him pretty regularly.
