[QUOTE="KFld, post: 121466, member: 2442"] TF, something made me check in this morning. Must just be my difficult child mom instinct. I know the word heroin is a scarey scarey thing and that you feel it's the end of the world. It is scarey, but it is not the end of the world. She can get clean, she can straigten out her life, but as you already know, it's all up to her. You have done a great job of not enabling in the past, please continue to do that. I went through over a year of feeling like you do today when I discovered my son was useing heroin. I felt like my world had ended. I'm here to remind you today that my son is almost 1 1/2 years clean, working full time, paying his own bills and was even able to get himself a car loan. He is in a wonderful relationship and so happy with his life right now. I never would have dreamt this was possible 2 years ago. It can happen and right now you need to continue on with your life and love and take care of that grandchild. The worst thing you can do for your daughter is to allow your own life to fall apart because of her choices. Your strength will give her strength. I'm so sorry she headed down that path, but she can get better. Don't ever give up hope!!!! I never did!!! [/QUOTE]
