Eva,

I hope that your mom is in a good program and they won't release her until she is ready. I hope they will involve you in the process.

I'm so glad that your daughter is back in rehab. I think guarded optimism is appropriate. I hope that she is ready for change, they are able to reach her in some way this time, and she takes advantage of some of the mental health care they will no doubt offer her to increase her odds of long term success.

I hope that she succeeds and is able to raise her daughter one day soon, but in the meantime, I'm glad that you are there to take care of her and let her know she is loved.

All four generations of women in your family are in my prayers today

Any prayers
In numbers stronger
Thank you in advance
Unfortunately not even 24 hours
She is out
Mom to Eva my grandchild
I pray she understands
That a meeting every single day is her medicine
She has been to so many facilities to even begin
This has been since her sister was born
However knowing my child and her behavior
It will never happen when fighting it
I know there are many professionals
Who do NOT know what they are talking about
Coming from someone who always needed to
find a way to release many of the difficulties I was handed
A young mother with a husband who lost sight of his children
Held monies from the
As in the divorce I asked for zero alimony
But to take care of our three babies
He was working a job that paid well
The GM Automobile industry
Skipped states over the river in our back yard
From NJ to NY
And child support never enforced either by the child support department or General Motors ordered to inform the child support dept and guess what evaded his fatherly duties
And added financial burden like you have no idea
Nobody can tell this mother who chose to raise her babies
As there were plenty who wanted to take care of my babies and me
I could write a series of books the experiences I have how through since very young
It has made me a strong person
Who I am today have so many other factors that help mould me into this very thrilled and blessed on so many levels sobriety gave me that
Point
I took life very seriously
Since the age of five
And to have to find a professionals to take situational genetic environmental addiction is much for one young mom to go through
I have my grandchild since infancy
She has been in a position where a long term facility taken seriously could have benefited
As I became disable as the age of 49
And get much help from my eighteen year old savior
any help she has to offer is help where ever need be
They have a very close bond
Mommy left the program
Out
Not even twenty four hours
Sad
Very sad

I'm so sorry Eva

I can only hope that she keeps trying and one day it will stick.

I can't imagine what your granddaughter really thinks or feels about her mother and the situation you all find yourselves in. It must be very confusing and painful for her. Has she ever been to a therapist to help deal with her feelings? These feelings will follow her into adulthood.

You have no doubt experienced more of your share of pain and suffering during your lifetime. I know you can never truly let go because of the damage that has been done, but please try your best to live in the present and look towards the future more. I know that your life now, and your prospects for the future, aren't ideal either, but it is better than living in all the pain all the time. It must be so overwhelming… please don't let it consume you

You deserve to have a life of your own and to pursue some happiness

Fortunately she has all the love
But grandma has to take custody
Until mom gets well
One moment at a time
She scored A's across the board
First report card
It speaks volumes
So proud
And was so excited to show me
The snippets of the overwhelming love
And approval
Having a great time with the Christmas music
My kids all musically inclined
Has a beautiful voice
We are very close as a unit
A very tiny family
Thank you Jesus
Amen
