Sue,

It takes courage to love your children with tough love. But sometimes, it is needed...painful to read, but empowering at the same time...may this be the jump start to a better future, for both of you. You are in my prayers, you and your baby girl.

(((((HUGS))))) and love, Karla.

This is a sad poignant write knowing where it is coming from. There is nothing harder on the heart strings then to have to say no to our children even when it is foe their own good. Be brave Sue I know you are struggling.

No matter how old they are, we, the mothers, still care about them. They will always be our "Baby Girl". Hope things will turn out for the better between your baby girl and you.

A heartful of parental love in this one you write. Very touching indeed!

Sue, You have written something I know a little about!]
Besides the fact that you have written this like a master;
You point is well understood and it's the only position a loved one
can take. It's incidious and there drags you right in ,...it's not her fault ! IT'S THE DISEASE! That is why I am backing you up!
I know people who have lost their loved one's for notloving tough enough!!!!!
be blessed ! y

That's right. Cut the umbilical cord and sit down to a nice meal. I too have had friends and relatives dine on poison ... cut their lines across the glass-topped kitchen table and laughed at their razor-blade and powder lifestyle thinking it is us who have the problem. Take a look at my tarot card The Navel, Sue. And then cut it loose. Blessed Be.
