Dear MIP family

I did two posts about my missing and later found sister, Gini....I want thank the souls who replied on either board to give me some support in my time of great anxiety and fear.

Gini has Alzheimer's and is married to an abusive AH , his drinking and abuse caused her to kinda "shut down" a long time ago...Decades of abuse eventually wears even a fighter like her down.....She would just zone out, with her Itunes in her ears and just tuned out the world...It was hard for Patsy and me to get a call into her cell b/c she didn't hear it

The long term, ongoing abuse that she has suffered at his hands, had taken its toll...A couple of years ago we began to suspect that she was "slipping" sorta....Like I would talk w/her and oh yea, the past she was spot on, but current events is where I would notice something was "off"..Her daughter is a physical therapy nurse w/good connections and she took her in for tests......It was confirmed early this year...Alzheimers.........

Last night the AH came home , drunk, as usual and this time he 4got to hide the car keys and she found them...She took off in the car, and noone knew till this am, that she was GONE

Of course the kids called the cops and friends where she might be b/4 Patsy and I were told about it

WE posted on facebook, her picture and appealed to anyone in the MA area, please be on lookout

Well, she was found today by the cops at the beach....I had to kinda laugh when my sister told me that b/c  HEY!! Its summer...Shes no fool...Where do ya go when U R a runaway and is hot???   The Beach...

By now, I am sure the girls have her home, its a double edge sword...Yes we know where she is and yes, she is back with "J" the drunk and his mental and emotional abuse

I wish we had the money to get her out of there and we could alternate taking care of her, but who has money these days and can afford to not work???

It is what it is...One day she will pass on to the other side and be free once and for all from any abuse, until then, All I can do is hope I can see her at least one more time b4 she does leave and let her know what she has meant to me

If I didn't have my program, I would have obsessed and fretted, worried, gone into a flurry of activity that wold lead to no where but my being exhausted....Thanks to program, I was able to assess what little I could do...Did it.....Let the outcome go....It was hard, but I did it

I even swam today...I did my laundry....Didn't feel up to the back yard, but maybe tomorrow I will catch it...

Thanks to all of you who responded to post #1  or Post #2 

I am kinda exhausted..Mentally and my back is kinda bad and my left leg is hurting....soft tissue pain is hard b/c it takes forever to improve if I even can

oh well, another thing to let go...AFTER I have my soak in the tub

Good night, all....Its been too much experience overload for me today...Gonna curl up in bed after bath and watch movies on my computer and go to sleep

THANKS
