Here I am, but it involved her being in a nasty car wreck and getting Hep C. Those things were and are completely beyond the control of me and my husband, and only she could own them.

I had to work really hard at recovery for her to stay here. My husband didn't want to permanently kick her out and I wasn't going to make that decision for him. So I had a choice, move out or learn how to deal with both of them. I chose the latter. There were times when I had to show her the door but it always remained open for her, when she was ready to do the work.
