Hi Cris...I saw myself in your post. You are to be commended for loving and doing the best for your grandson and daughter.
Two years ago I did the same to my struggling daughter. I had had enough. I called DCF; however, I got custody of my granddaughter.
Let me tell you it was so hard to do. There were so many times I had to turn against my instincts and move towards what I thought would eventually help her, me and my family.
It worked.
Today she is working, has a network of friends from recovery whom she adores and they adore her. Her daughter is a bright, loving child with no ill effects so far.
So I say to you YES! This too shall pass. All things do pass, whether good or bad. Sometimes we are driven so hard by our emotions that we cannot see the light of day. That's ok, but remember...that will pass too and soon, the beauty of light, love and life shines brightly right before our eyes....and....we understand.
Peace, dearheart.
