My ex-A who I refused to have for Christmas had to be hospitalised on new year's eve for high blood pressure. He is staying with me and is now watching tv. That might not sound so strange only it is ten years since he has staying away from the pub and watched television in a family environment. Unfortunately he is planning his getaway and is talking about getting an electric heater in order to go back to the other life. I have enjoyed this week though, having company, sober company and talking to someone I thought was long gone. I am going to have to detach and I know that this board will help me to do that. I have no control over this disease and will have to put it in Hps hands. I feel quite sad but this time instead of detaching with anger, I am going to try to detach with love.
You have us and you have a program that will help you along the way Maire. I know how hard it is to allow others the dignity of living their own lives even if we don't like the choices they are making.
I hope you keep coming, Maria123
