Is this how you want to spend your daughter's wedding?!?

I'm sorry about your sister. I do understand what it means to love someone who is so out of control. However, how she behaves and the consequences she is now experiencing because of HER behavior are completely out of your control.

I actually didn't invite my alcoholic father to my wedding because I was scared of how he would behave.

This is such an important day for your daughter and for you too. I hope that you can detach from your sister and enjoy and celebrate what is suppose to be a joyful event.

All of the energy you're putting into your sister could instead be use to support your daughter.

Best Wishes,
