[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 531455"] This is a hard one. I am not sure what I would do. I guess my first question is what is concerning you? Is it the care (or lack of) of the dogs, possible damange to your house and property, or is it that she will feel alone and relapse? I think if it is the first two then you need to make sure she doesn't stay there so that you don't have to worry about your property. If it is the 2nd then ultimately that is her responsibility and you can't prevent that and should go on your trip. I do have to say that staying in a motel alone seems to be more lonely than staying in your house so if the 2nd is your main concern I might take my chances and leave her at home. Could you have a friend or someone check in with her and take her to dinner while you are gone? It does seem to me that it is important for you to take the trip, giving up our lives for our difficult children is the ultimate in enabling them and we all need to keep working on living our lives I think.
