[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 764752, member: 18958"] Wonderful Wonderful. It might. It could. In the 8 years that we've been together here New Leaf, you've never written a post like this. Two things can be true at one time. There is hope. But there is the reality it could change, that she relapses. Such is the nature of our situation. We are Fiddlers on the Roof. The best it gets for us is on the cusp, between hope and loss. It doesn't get better than that. The only way to do this is minute by minute. We need to stay in right now. Right now it is good. There is no other way to do this. I think you've done the right thing. You love her. She is your daughter. There is hope. It's right to hope. The Chinese have the same word for crisis and opportunity. We have to stand in crisis to arrive at hope. There is no other way to do this. That I know of. Closing down? To be in a place where everything is "no?" To be with hope. This takes superhuman courage. You have that. Your name is New Leaf. [/QUOTE]
