my thoughts have changed

My husband got a call about 2 am last night. The police wanted to confirm that all the equipment my AD was driving around with belonged to him. It is specific to his business, and had been stored in our barn. She told the police she had taken it with the intention of selling it in Newark.

I am not even angry. We are both hoping she gets arrested soon. We don't even have to do anything, she is taking care of it herself. The police said they did not know what the outcome would be last night. My husband just said, tell her I want the stuff back. He told them she has "problems" - and they knew what he meant, as she was leaving the home of someone else with the same "problem".

We are just waiting for it to all unravel. I am praying she gets what she needs, and comes out a better person for all of this.

Somehow, I am no longer afraid.

Jeep, I know with my AD the worse things get with her the more hope I have that some consequences will come her way and those consequences will be what she needs to want to get better. Praying the same for your daughter. Stay strong. Hugs, Marle

I am learning from you and marle to "let go of the addict"
It's hard when it's our own children, but it is a must for their healing and ours.

Thank you all for the support. The words come out, but then we have our somber moments. Tonight we found more things have been taken. I feel bad that my son's camera and video camera are missing, one more line addiction has crossed.

Possessions can be replaced. My son does not believe we will do anything about it. I feel between a rock and a hard place. I just hope they know we love them both and are trying to make the right decisions.

Jeep...I think know exactly what you mean an how yoou feel. SD now has discovered her sister has been stealing checks since the 1st of Feb, so far it adds up to $960 she s missing, I'm afraid it's going to be more when all is said an done. Needless to say she is pissed said as far as she is concerned her sister is "dead to her" she has had enough.
You love both kids it's hard ...is don't sound good I know but I think you know where I'm coming from when I say......I hope your daughter does something to get arrested soon.....Sending you an your husband hugs an prayers.

Gosh darn, it's hard dealing with the drama. You sure are doing a wonderful job of keeping your strength up, and using YOUR recovery.

Hoping and praying her H.P. leads her where she needs to be.

Hugs,

Hi Jeepgirl - I'm praying too that your AD comes out a better person - the hurt when loved ones lies or steels is unbearable maybe even worse than using.

Jeep I Feel Were Close To The Same Place. My As Just Stole A Lot Of His Younger Brothers Clothes Because His 15 Year Old Agf Burned His. And His Younger Brother Still "loaned " Him Money For Gas. I Thought I Was Crazy For Wanting My As To Face Consequences. But Like You, Were Weary Of The Drama. Sometimes We Feel He Would Be Better Off In Jail As Bad As That Sounds. We Pray For Your A And Your Family.
Take Care
