Update: Kids, Don't Do Drugs...

It occurs to me that I should update my entry of Nov. 2004...
She never went back to drugs. She's been clean for well over a year; my grandchildren are happy, well-adjusted, and making honor roll. Not only that, she made a "love connection" through NA and is happier than she's been in years. My husband and I both like him very much. And they're getting married!

It's especially wonderful that she has stayed clean through some hard times: my grandson's bipolar disorder, my granddaughter's rheumatic fever (which resulted in a slight mitral valve prolapse) , and the same granddaughter's scoliosis, which will require nasty, major surgery.

Not only that---my daughter and I have regained the closeness we had before she started using. It's so very wonderful to know that there is such a thing as a happy ending.
