time out for my sister

my sister is in the first stages of chirrosis. this information I received from her doctor when she was last in the hospital after 2 seizures at home and another in the ER (not her first experience with seizures).
she called last night and I could hardly understand a word she said. when I called back she told me, "leave me the f*** alone. it's none of your business", even though she called me.
she's most likely going to die from this disease and try as I might, there is only so much I can do to help.
There is no law against drinking yourself to death.

I'm so sorry I hope you keep reading and posting here. You can't change HER, but you can definitely get support for yourself from people who "get" what you're going through.

Hugs and prayers,

Amy

You can't make people change, you can only change yourself and how you react to them.

I'm sorry you're in this position.
