I have come along way,,, because of people like you,,, I've educated myself on addiction, I've gathered every possible tool I could and realize the difference between helping and enabling,,,
This site ,,, God send,,,I came here looking for hope, I continue to come here to give hope,,,,,
The day she is sober,, and the choices in life exceed the bad ones she has made,,, the happy dance will be danced!!
Just keep your arms wrapped around me for strength!
I'm heartbroken, devasted,,, angry,,, oh the anger usually gets to me, in the morning,,,, when I wake up and think,,,, but then I continue with my day,,, and put the anger in a direction that will help others,,,, this so called love of her life,,,, omg,,,,, if him and I were the last two standing,,, I would and probably could punch the l iving daylights out of him,,,,,, right now he has this strong hold over her,,,, so it's hard to tell if its herion,,, or him (which quite frankkly he is like the drug),,,,
just pray that she finds her way home,,,, and the light will be on,, for her to see,,,, until then,,, my only tool,,, prayer of hope,,, and doing her job,,, taking care of her daughter,,,,
love ya
little miss ava,,, is the joy of my life,,,, and like anything there was a reason I became a G-mama at 40,,, so that at 46,,, I can still rock with this one,,,, I have four,,,, 24 (addicit),, 21, 17, and 16,,, so yep either I'm a old mom,,, or a young G-mamma,,,,,
thanks for keeping k in your prayers,,,,
this place is more then just a site,, to find hope ,,, but place that has walked with me through this nightmare,,, you all have been the light,, that comforts my fears,,,,
just please continue to put K in your prayers!
love you my friend!!

Sadly, I get what you are going through.. S has not been home since 2/14... somewhere in a neighboring town (he has texted a couple times)... almost positive he is not going to IOP... pretty sure he missed an appointment with his P.O.... man!!! What does he not get about having jail term over his head??
Sweetie, know that I am praying HARD for you and K.
