[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 399124, member: 1233"] If you call and speak to her you are showing her you did not mean it when you said you want no contact until she has completed rehab and is ready to make sincere amends. Do NOT NOT NOT call her. It will NOT make ANY difference except to show her she can still try to manipulate you. Stay strong and stay away from her. You do NOT do yourself, your kids or anyone else any favors by begging this woman to get clean and deal with her addictions. She knows what to do. She chooses not to and it is NOT because of ANYTHING you do or don't do. It has NOTHING to do with you. Your mother in law is grasping at anything to use to keep from dealing with reality. I know she loves her daughter, but reality is that you cannot help and neither can she EXCEPT by cutting off the drug abusing person. They don't call it Tough Love because it is fun or easy, Know what I mean?? [/QUOTE]
