This is going to sound really rude, but trust me long enough to read the rest of what I have to say.. but what business is it of yours whether she 'slips up' or not? Don't get mad.. just a question.

I KNOW you are concerned, and frightened.. I would be too. From what you're telling us, she's not done, and it's only up to her hun..

I'll repeat what's likey been said over on the F&F side, you can't control it, didn't cause it, can't cure it.. or something like that.

Her addiction is her own, and has nothing to do with anyone. Same w/ her recovery, if and when she wants it. She's been the detox route, so she knows about that.. she knows of AA, and I'm assuming knows how to call 911 if things get dire..

She might want to change, but ultimately she'll decide when that happens, and that time doesn't seem to be now.
