[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 676732, member: 19522"] My three easy children want nothing to do with their two sisters, as long as they are using. It has been a hard road for them as well, so much turmoil and loss. It is hard for them, phone calls or texts usually mean a request for [I]something. [/I]They miss the relationship they had, before drugs came into the picture. For now, they have completely detached. It is sad, but they are tired of the cruel game, addiction becomes with family members. For years concentration was on trying to help our two D cs, especially because of the grands. My easy children are determined not to get sucked in, and have drawn a line. For now, they have stuck to it. Blossom and Hoku are extremely close, and spend a lot of time together. Son is busy with school, band, paddling and his friends. He adores his sisters and has been hurt by the craziness of it all. I had him see a therapist, to talk confidentially and get his feelings out. She released him after about six sessions, saying he was a solid kid. So far, so good. He despises alcohol and drugs, because of what he saw with his two sisters. Hopefully, that will stick. He confided with me that some of the kids were passing around some kind of "Apple drink" before practice, he was disgusted and refused. Yay. Phew...... It is sad, but my two d cs have pretty much turned their backs on their family, replaced us with their drug friends. Not giving up hope, just know the reality of this, for now......still praying the "wake up call" will come. Not holding our breath til it does. Addiction sucks, if you will pardon my language.
