Thanks - I needed that

you have a way with words
 

Thank you for your 'words of art!'

The truth is very sad isn't it? Another one to print and keep with me.

Wow....did I ever need to read this today. How beautiful...how eloquent. It brought tears to my eyes. Thank you.

Found this post and thought it deserved to be bumped. Full of insight, wisdom and truth. Thanks!

Back to the top...

Thank you for all the posts. I too needed them. AH gets out of rehab in a few days. I have made it very clear to him that he can't come back. His parents are going to let him stay with them for a while--thank goodness. I am determined to stay strong but I know that I will have many bridges to cross. I am completely worn out by all of the madness. It is amazing how fast time passes. I can't believe that I have been dealing with this for years. I have done everything I know to do only to realize that I can not do it for him. I am done! May need advice in the coming days. Thank you

Thanks Texas Girl for bringing this one out! I'm cried through the whole thing! I'm printing it now! I so want to be ready....

I thought today would be the perfect day to bump this post back to the top.

I love this - I found it the first day I came here and printed it off

it has helped me make decisions, I know it may sound swilly, but this has git me through many days .. and not just regarding G..

Thank you for this... I cant stop crying.... this is so hard but having this support helps so much!!!

The pain is finally stopping for me,it took a very long time,everything in that post describes me. Thank You.........

Well I'm sat at work with tears in my eyes now. Powerful post, thank you.

Wow! Thank you so much for this post. Very bittersweet..

I have shared this with a moms online group (support forum for a's and their loved ones) and now I know where it comes from so I can give credit.

It is one of my favorites and I read it when I'm struggling with my addiction and when I'm struggling with my feelings towards my father alcoholism.

Thank you so much.

It sure is strange how this VERY HELPFUL post....even though it's old....showed up on a day I needed it. Thanks.

I also needed to see this again. Thanks. . .
