Yes, I see that she is using her sister, and I did gently tell the 14yo that as well. She gets it, as much as she can. It's been a long haul for both of them, and my youngest has learned things well beyond her years.
Thank you, L2L, for reminding me of the fact that leaving was her CHOICE and that it was against the recommendation of everyone involved in her recovery.
And thanks to EJG for the shelter reminder. I did hear that she is staying with a family tonight of someone she met in rehab, so she's not in the bushes or on the street.
Ah, the things we become grateful for..."the kindness of strangers," as Blanche said in Streetcar Named Desire. I'm tired and getting punchy, so I am going to stop now.
