Whether she shows or not (and I seriously doubt she will) keep the focus on you and your recovery. You're doing the right thing by pressing charges. There was a time when I could have done the same against my sister after she robbed me blind, and at the time I was so mired in "helping" her fix herself I decided not to do so. I regret that decision, and it didn't help her at all, it just allowed her to continue deeper into her addiction without consequence. Once we know better we do better.

After today, whatever the outcome, you can put this whole mess behind you and spend all of the energy that was previously spent worrying about her on caring for yourself. Leave the past in the past where it belongs, and press onward to a brighter tomorrow. You'll be in my thoughts today!
