[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 561899, member: 4264"] I am glad my response helped you affirm your own mind in some fashion. This truly is a place where sometimes our responses, being personal, can be hit or miss. So when one resonates from sharing my own experiences, it makes me extra glad for sharing my personal perspective. I do hope that she keeps it together and you two can enjoy the holiday. And all in all, if she doesn't rush off to slip again, this truly is the definition of "bump on the road" and need not discount or disqualify pride in herself for working hard and making progress towards a healthier, sober, life. I do believe she wants this. That isn't to say she will fly through the process of recovery easily. But she's back there, and I'm glad you are able to see past this relapse and see the encouraging news that she returned and is for today, working at it. I'm glad you have the back of plan, just in case. Now you can leave it there as just that back of your mind knowledge of how to respond "if". But meanwhile, that you can be excited to share your holiday table with her is a great thing. She's still the pre addiction daughter you love and miss. I hope she's happy at your table this year. Enjoy! If she knows about the board, tell her this board auntie is rooting for her and truly believes in her. [/QUOTE]
