Hi guys:
Popping in late tonight asking for some prayers and
My MIL has fallen off the wagon and we've found out that my FIL has been enabling her buy buying and bringing her booze.
We checked her in the hospital for detox tonight and will most likely get her in the morning and have her stay with us thru the weekend while we look to get her out of town to a rehab clinic.
She has done quite a few programs around here and not had sucess, but always comes home to the same issues with her husband, FIL.
She is at a very low point and during the past New Years holidays she had 2 attempts at suicide. This was not the first time for this all became very clear to us when this all came to light.
Hopefully we have gotten between MIL & FIL this time to get her to a place that she can recover and make better choices. I'm just at a loss. I just spent the last hour online looking and not knowing what and where to turn.
It's hard being the outside DIL the boys (Paul and his brother) aren't assertive with there father and clearly he is not making the situtation better for MIL.
Wish us luck and strenght in dealing with this over the next few days and weeks.
I'll be here as I can, as I know the support you guys offer is so sorely needed to get me thru.
Nan
