Just to clarify in case I wasn't completely clear. I am cutting off contact. She has been constantly reaching out to bring me back in and I have constantly been cutting the conversations short or not responding. My point was that it hurts, despite the fact I know it's for the best. As for tricking someone into rehab, she has three children that are reliant on her at least for food and shelter. She's been in treatment for a month now, not waiting around for it. I just came to the realization that as someone else glorious put it, "The alcohol can go away, but the ism never does." Thanks to all for the continued support. I finally went a day where she has not contacted me... it has been both a blessing and a burden as I still care and wonder how she is doing. But I hold true to moving on and know it will get better!
