Thank you....
We all had a wonderful Easter. My dear husband and Bug hunting eggs
as I took pictures will always be a memory in my heart. She is one of
the sweetest babies I've ever known. She is a lot like her mother when
she was small. Full of love, laughter, and inquisitiveness.

Thank you so much for your prayers. I feel so strongly that prayers are

I'm almost speechless, and that doesn't happen often.
It sounds as if my worst nightmare became your reality
in losing by death to meth.

I'm so sorry your son was taken in such a manner, by this horriable drug.
May his death not be in vain, and if the story of his life and death change the life
of one addict, or their family.

Your daughter gives me hope for my own... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (LdyOfWzdm) http://methamphetamineabusediscussionforum.yuku.com/sreply/26749 Sat, 29 Mar 2008 15:40:09 GMT http://methamphetamineabusediscussionforum.yuku.com/reply/26744/t/How-Enabling-Is-This-.html#reply-26744
Bug looks like she had a wonderful easter. She looks happy, healthy, well cared for and loved. What you are doing for her is such a gift - especially when you have your own needs and your husband to care for. My prayers will be with you and with him - looks like any prayers Bug had need of when she was born have been filled by your strength and love.

She did come round to visit, but she always ignored her son. Mostly she wanted to sleep and eat. I think it would have been better if she had just stayed away at that time.

Today my mind is in a different place. And right now I could care less if she sees Bug or not. She hasn't worried about it for over 3 months. And now when I have my hands full of Bug being sick with MRSA the past few weeks (3 ER visit last week), and now my husband she wants to try to make my life more complicated. Phooey!

Second, I'm so sorry to hear about your HepC. Stay away for alcohol because that would be like throwing gasoline on a fire, when trying to put the fire out.

I believe it would be easier for you to go here to read my husbands story....if you have any questions after that please feel free to PM me.

Lady, I don't want to sound negative here, but I guess you know the probability of her not showing up is very high. Don't expect anything okay?

Bug is adorable. How blessed she is to have you.

Prayers to your husband. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (XOutlaw Woman) http://methamphetamineabusediscussionforum.yuku.com/sreply/26628 Fri, 28 Mar 2008 07:18:40 GMT http://methamphetamineabusediscussionforum.yuku.com/reply/26620/t/How-Enabling-Is-This-.html#reply-26620 feeds@yuku.com (JamieJ1979) http://methamphetamineabusediscussionforum.yuku.com/sreply/26620 Fri, 28 Mar 2008 06:36:02 GMT http://methamphetamineabusediscussionforum.yuku.com/reply/26605/t/How-Enabling-Is-This-.html#reply-26605

The last time my oldest was in jail, she was still trying to orchestrate everything in her world, including begging someone in the family to call the bail bondsman for her. Anymore, no is an automatic answer for me, and I don't even have to think twice!

For me, I believe I did this even though I knew it wasn't the best choice because it temporarily numbed any suffering I felt over the million things I was unhappy about.

I have been taking your words to heart a lot lately and they have served me well and made much sense to me.

A lot of the time, my own words in my head don't make as much sense to me, even if they are saying the same thing you just said.

Sometimes-for me, a lot of the time, other people make more sense to me than I do to myself.

I'm not sure if that was just a rhetorical question or not.

But my experience with people pleasing is that I would make choices that I knew were not right for me because I so craved the 5 minute hit of happiness I would get when people expressed a need for me, or gratitude for something I'd done for them. Sometimes the "hit" was self-righteousness for proving I was going "above and beyond" any realistic... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Loraura) http://methamphetamineabusediscussionforum.yuku.com/sreply/26579 Thu, 27 Mar 2008 19:02:20 GMT http://methamphetamineabusediscussionforum.yuku.com/topic/2547/t/How-Enabling-Is-This-.html
