[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 352211, member: 4264"] Thanks everywoman. The enabling is the part that is making my s/o and I crazy at this stage. It is one of the few things we can control in this situation, and we've gotten better but those kids come in and are hungry and we give in. We have resolved it will not be happening again, not at all. If we know the kids are hungry we are going to contact her husband and tell him so. It is beyond obvious that nothing matters to her anymore except keeping on about her business of getting high and staying high. She's taking super strong oxy's, lots at a time, many times a day. She is also taking methadone, which she doesn't measure even! She simply takes a swig out of the bottle it comes in (she buys it illegally). She is also using massive sleeping pills. Its ugly for sure. I'm going to insist that my s/o call her husband tonight and tell him how we are here to attend a intervention if need be, where our line in the sand is, and ensure her husband that he really has no choice but to protect his children and do what he needs to do in a intervention himself. Beyond that, s/o just needs to say what he needs to say to his sister. I'm going to suggest that if he cannot figure out how to word it in person, we can always put it in writing and make sure she gets it. (She's the type who would read it so not worried about it just getting tossed) I have decided that tomorrow morning I'm going to contact her GP and let him know that the entire family is worried for her life and her future, and what is going on with her. He needs to know. Those dang sleeping pills are coming from him and he doesn't know shes into all this stuff. He also needs to contact the local er and the walk in clinics that they are NOT to prescribe for her as we have been told she is doctor shopping. She popped by here a while ago. Because s/o isn't here, I simply didn't answer and pretended I wasnt home. I'm finding it hard to see her at all. [/QUOTE]
