the cartoons were a great giggle! Isn't it the truth?

Like you I just genuinely wish my exabf could be well and happy. I also understand that this is not ever going to happen. He was told over a year ago that he had destroyed his heart with alcohol and had about a year to live. He's still going about as strong as ever but not even that was enough to get him to give up the bottle.

When I got divorced many years ago a shrink told me that I couldn't be mad at my ex-husband about not being able to get himself together for me when he couldn't even do it for himself, for his own sake. The years have proven the truth of that to me many times over.

I am more worried about my friend Edie than I am about stepson. Stepson spent time in prison over crack...is clean of that but is making up for it drinking...and predictably it is confusing her, becoming an obsession and she wants to save him and love him................

phone ringing...........
