I just posted a blog about the latest in this saga...<BR/><BR/>It's an odd feeling to be GLAD that my daughter is in jail... To have absolutely no control myself over this child that I love so much.<BR/><BR/>(I deleted one comment here, not that I didn't appreciate it - only because I am trying to keep my family somewhat anonymous - not for myself, but because I do truly believe that this, too, shall pass... and my daughter's own actions will be enough for us all to come to terms with, let alone the stigma attached to Heroin.<BR/><BR/>I would rather my blog represent the many inadvertent victims of heroin... I HATE how it manages to dominate so many things, obscuring the goodness that is in the lives of those involved, too... but there it isAthenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14824831201121143893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127114463030844612.post-31217730060834668762008-04-04T04:19:00.000-05:002008-04-04T04:19:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.cornbread hellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04044619147561532271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127114463030844612.post-11244832931233419432008-03-28T14:07:00.000-05:002008-03-28T14:07:00.000-05:00I'm really glad to hear that things are going well...I'm really glad to hear that things are going well for you and your daughter.<BR/><BR/>I know that it is hard not to be suspicious of this. My family had gone through that with me in the beginning. The reality is, the sooner you accept the fact that there is absolutely nothing you can do to keep your daughter from using...the better off you will be. If she is going to use, that is up to her (I'm not saying she is going to).<BR/><BR/>I think that her being responsible for that little life inside of her is going to be a big driver of her staying clean. She probably feels accountability towards her baby and in early recover...accountability goes a long way.<BR/><BR/>Congratulations!erinsavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12808493902626395342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127114463030844612.post-50338878652070523032008-03-14T19:08:00.000-05:002008-03-14T19:08:00.000-05:00I am so happy to hear your positive news. I too ha...I am so happy to hear your positive news. I too have children who are abusing drugs - and it's hard to ever really feel assured that they are clean or will stay that way.<BR/>Hearing that your daughter is staying clean during her pregnancy is great news. Made me feel very hopeful for my sons.Designer_NYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14461441272315488466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127114463030844612.post-51678384826626268302008-03-13T08:52:00.000-05:002008-03-13T08:52:00.000-05:00I'm happy for you and your daughter!

If the moment is good, it doesn't have to mean that the rest of forever will always be relapse-free bliss or that it's an illusion that's about to be shredded by a big, scary relapse. It just is what it is, and that's enough...<BR/><BR/>Good luck to both of you!joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01453075718683708291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7127114463030844612.post-89299528225377866102008-02-19T21:53:00.000-06:002008-02-19T21:53:00.000-06:00I'm so happy for you and your daughter.
