[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 59816, member: 1991"] Here's hoping, with you, that one heavy bout was enough to put her off. BF2 got plastered at difficult child 1's girlfriend's party (we were there also) and threw up in the car on the way home. It all went into a plastic bag of difficult child 1's, so the content went straight into a bucket with lots of water. Next morning we emptied out the bucket and refilled it. You could still taste the rum - and I don't think he will ever touch rum again! You mentioned "a place of acceptance" - I know what you mean. You will need it, so you can deal with the bits you CAN deal with. It does make it easier, though, because you have your place to help you cope. Can you talk to her at all in calmer moments? Or is it likely to trigger oppositional behaviour to do so? It really is so hard when they're like this. I'm glad your hands are better than I had thought - I have a friend whose work I re-type, who uses all caps. I know what her hands are like (not MS - it's a lifelong peripheral neuropathy, in her case) and I was worried you had similar problems. I wish my friend would use lower case! But she's got through life doing things her way with everybody else having to fit in, so I guess I'll have to keep plodding through the way I have been... Marg [/QUOTE]
