Update on the mess.
It's been a long, long day.
I went up to see my RAD at school after dragging my tired butt out of bed after only about 3 hours sleep. When I had only started out she called and said the police were there again and wanted her to go and make a statement.
Now she knew nothing about what was going on, just didn't have a good feeling about the whole relationship, that really started this past weekend.
She went and told again what she knew, was very co-operative and wanted to know what might happen to her, the answer nothing as she didn't seem to be involved in any way with his actions. Her only dealings with police have been traffic accidents and shoplifting when she was a teen.
It seems that he had gone out Monday ? night while she was at work and robbed a store and last night tried to get rid of some of the items. The cops were called and he was arrested. Now he's been in jail a few times and only off parole a few months. Bail denied, thank God. Had he relapsed? no one knows and right now RAD doesn't want to even see him nor does she want to know if drugs were involved.
RAD had called his mother to tell her what had happened and that poor woman was ready to kill him for being so stupid and dragging RAD into it. She had also called my house and left me a message apologizing for his actions.
I took RAD out for some food before class. She wasn't sure she could sit still for a class and went instead to the mental health unit on campus. She only waited for 5 minutes before she was talking to a nice lady, therapist ?, but it helped her a lot. She got rid of some of the anger and hurt, but I'm sure that will come back. She's got to go every week and work thru it, guess she's using the tools at hand for right now.
There is a good side to this whole thing, it has strengthened her recovery and saved her from marrying a real looser. So I guess there is a plan, just not one that we would wish for.
And her ex-bf is exactly where he should be, a good place for him especially with 3 angry women after him. He wouldn't stand a chance.
Please keep everyone in your prayers......

Thanks for the update and I will say a prayer for you and your daughter.
It sounds like she is being as level headed as possible given the crazy circumstances. It must have made you feel good to be able to be there to give her some support at a time when you know it is doing good, when she is in recovery.
Remember to take care of yourself as well.

It sounds like your daughter is really strong in her recovery. You are a wonderful mom to go there and give her some much needed support. Prayers for her, you, the boyfriend and his family. Hugs, Marle

Thanks for the update.
You're right...having RAD AND 2 mama's after him? He's safer in jail.
Sounds like your daughter is doing exactly what she needs to, and is surrounded by loving support.
Hugs and prayers!
