I am so sorry, for your entire family. I hope with you,that your momma will want to get well, before it takes her life, but that is only in her hands. Seems you have done what you could, she knows you love and forgive her, and that is all we can do for them.

I am glad for you kids, though, on your determination to live lives not ruined by addiction. Be strong and take care of you, and your families. This is a good place to learn about how it affects the family. Alcoholism can affect us even after the alcoholics are not with us, after a lifetime of living with them. I am sorry for the pain you went through as kids, tho. I remember that misery well.

my best wishes to you. thank you for sharing and I hope being here helps you as much as it has me.
