My deepest heartfelt wishes for you during this transition, and may she pass into the great beyond with much light and joy.

Take good care of yourself, mum, you are a wonderful person.

I have a heaviness in my heart tonight that is not because of my mom's condition only, which is of course extremely hard and sad, but a rather normal course of events, even a blessing.  

But now.......my sister's daughter  is severely addicted and currently missing...it's been a yoyo of a life for the last year or so, but I never heard my sister sob the way she did tonight. She has given up (had to, just had to) and her daughter seems determined to end her life, or her addiction demon has determined that.
I am just so sad.  So much has been done, so many treatments, so many interventions, believe me when I say, it is the end for my sister....her daughter will either make it or not, but her body is already so severely damaged....oh it's just so awful.  This beautiful, highly intellegent young woman, near death by self loathing and the disease of addiction.  I will hold my children tight tonight (even if they squirm) because my sister asked me to, for her sake.

I apologize in advance for being so needy, I just have to say how sad I feel right now. and.....
Please, if angels exist, cradle my beautiful neice tonight....

Mum,

I am so sorry to hear of the extent of your neice's addiction.  I pray she will reach out for help.  I also pray your sister will recieve comfort and guidance and she enters a new phase of detatchment.  Addiction is "baffling and cunning".  I always feel sad when I hear of another casualty.  Hopefully, your neice will find an escape route and learn to live with sobriety.

p.s.  Thanks for sharing your needs, it gives me permission to do the same.

I am so, so sorry for what you are going through, mum.  Holding you and your family in my prayers.  There is clearly a huge amount of love in your family, and this is something for you to hold onto, like a plank of wood in the shipwreck.  I pray it will help you keep afloat together.

thanks all of you.  October, our family's love is like the plank of wood in the shipwreck.......only it's cell phones with free long distance!  (thanking God this morning for something simple.)
I appreciate all the love here so much.

MUM, Just now reading your post.

I'm sending you and all of yours the hopes of peace .  Having the time to prepare for her passing should be a comfort. She must have a lot of love in her life with a daughter as special as you. I hope she knows how special and lucky she is to have you.

Mum, My prayers are with you, your sister, and lovely niece. I know how helpless it feels to watch a wonderful person lose a battle with addiction. I'm glad to know that you have found a way to find a safe harbor in the storm raging in your family.

God's peace, and know that this too shall pass,
Delphine
