sometimes, but I'm going out on a limb to ask for help.
My sister, an alcoholic for many years, finally reached the point today where I either had to step in and try to save her life or stand back and watch her die. I stepped in. I forced her to go to a hospital voluntarily by telling her I would commit her. She has become so ill, that she now weighs about 85 lbs and is unable to walk. She has not been eating or doing even basic personal hygiene. She attempted to detox at home on her own and has very nearly killed herself. I am asking for all you could offer to help her, in the way of prayers, good vibes, kind thoughts or if you have good karma to spare. At this point, my hope is only for her safety and comfort tonight. We'll deal with tomorrow when it gets here, eh? She is the last of my immediate family and has sworn to sever all ties with me because of what I have done today. That is O.K. I can live with that...I was going to lose her no matter what I did. I couldn't have lived with allowing her to continue as she's been. I am asking in the hopes of bringing her comfort and relieving her pain...I fear healing is beyond the realm of possibilities now. Your thoughts, prayers and spiritual energy would be accepted with much gratitude. |

Thoughts, prayers and all the good karma i can muster..all sent to you and yours!! Any one I have ever known in this kind of situation says the same things that every one else is telling you. Once they begin to heal, get better, they realize you are doing it out of pure love. They are thankful. It's tough road ahead, but that sisterly love will pull you through. Best wishes and good luck!

Thank you
. I am humbled and deeply grateful . My sister apparently had broken her ankle at some point - 2-3 weeks ago. She must have been in horrible...along with withdrawal symptoms. There is a question of a possible abdominal mass, but I am not sure, as she has forbidden them from sharing any information with me. She is saying all the right things and is cooperating with the hospital staff. The result of her being on her best behavior? They are planning on discharging her tomorrow . They are unable to keep her any longer, as she is eating "a little", oriented, cooperative and is not an 'immediate' danger to herself. She may very well go home and continue to wither away, but I am hoping she has taken this as a wake-up call and will decide to make her life one worth living. I'm not sure what else I can do at this point accept what you all have done...keep my thoughts focused on giving her strength and the will to live. Many, many thanks. I believe in the power that prayers and good spiritual energy has...now, if she would only decide to live .

I WISH I COULD HAVE DONE WHAT YOU DID FOR YOUR SISTER, MY MOTHER WAS A ALCHOLIC AND SHE WAS ONLY 36 YRS OLD,WHEN I LOST HER. I MISS HER EVERYDAY. YOUR SISTER SHOULD BE THANKFULLY THAT YOU CARE AND LOVE HER ENOUGHT TO WANT TO HELP HER. I LOVED MY MOM,JUST DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO HELP HER[ I was only 16 yrs old]. LOVE AND LIGHT TO YOU AND YOUR SISTER. Sweet 'p-n-c', I know a little of what you grew up with. My sister comes by her illness honestly...my father was an alcoholic, as well. It is a horribly destructive illness. The progression of my sister's illness has followed that of my father's with almost exact precision. Whether you know it or not, you DID do all that you could for your mother...you did all that a child could have done. You were dealing with an overwhelming situation. Sending hugs for all that you have been through and all that you have done. You have my admiration and appreciation for the loving woman you have become. You, and everyone, have my heartfelt thanks. If anything can help, it will be something beyond what those who love her can do. That folks here and my other friends have offered so much in this way touches my heart more than I can say. Thank you is simply not enough.
