Obsessed,
Hugs to you, sweetie, this trying to be a detached mom stuff, is hard work.
Detached doesn't mean we don't love them, or want the best for them, it just means we have to survive too. And with all the craziness our addicts seem to project towards us, we have to try hard to maintain our sanity.
(Boy...that was a lot of words...wasn't it?)

Anyway, what I mean to say is...never give up hope. Never.
I am praying she comes to her bottom soon.
In the meantime you take care of YOU.
Meetings, meetings, meetings.

One more little thing I was thinking.
When "others", (or "Earth people" as I call them) don't mention our addicts, it's because ,there is no possible way, unless you have a relationship with an addict, to know what to say, or even HOW to ask. Plus, I found...it makes THEM very ucomfortable.

Hugs to you,
