I will accept your virtual hug. It’s always going to hurt no matter what I tell myself or others.

I would give ANYTHING to have a brother again, even a crap one.  (both my brothers died in accidents)
TMI sorry.

I am past anger, but I understand your profound feelings of helplessness and frustration nonetheless. 

It is crap.

But everyone else is right…you just have to worry about you and your own little family. Sorry you have to go through it!

You want to hope but you protect yourself from hoping too much…that may not make much sense but that’s what I have felt. I love my brother too. Jail stopped him for a while, rehab for another bit of time, and a heart attack from damaged valves has been a wake up call for the last several months. 

I’m powerless to stop him but I can love his kids and be there for them, I can stop him from being around my kids if he’s high, and I can tell him to knock it off when he’s giving me bullshit and then tell him I love him and hope he’s around to see his daughters graduate from college and high school.  

(((un abrazo))

Thank you so much.

I can relate more than you might think – – – my hubby’s been to rehab. I hold my breath every day praying and hoping he never goes back to his substances of choice.
E – mail if I can be of more help even just as a set of ears.

I’m sorry you are going through this cycle with him again. Sending love your way and praying for you.
