I just had to let everyone know that my daughter has been clean for 15 weeks
If you can only imagine how i feel.
She spent 8 weeks in jail, then moved to a rehab facility for 7 weeks, now she is in a half way house for the next 6 months. CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN...
She came to the house yesterday, this was the first time i have seen her since her jail time, tho we have talked on the phone several times. What used to be a 98 pound, scabbed arms, ulcers on her face, ratty notted hair, pitiful looking and starving is now a 135 pound, clear beautiful skin,
healthy body, beautiful hair and teeth, wonderful human being.
She surprised me. I was sitting at the kitchen table drinking my coffee and reading the Sunday paper when she walked in the door. You just can't know the emotion that went thru me. I held her for many minutes and we both cried. She apologized over and over again. We talked about up comming Holidays here at the new house. She is beautiful. My sweet baby girl is back. I smelled her hair, and touched her beautiful face, my baby is home and in my arms like the day she came into my world.
So to anyone out there who feels hopeless, please please have faith in your child and please beleive. I never lost hope like so many other family and friends did. I love her so and i prayed every single day for God to please help her. He did, for sure. I just talked with her a few minutes ago on the phone and she wrote me a poem. She will e-mail it to me and i will post it here for all to see. Then i will frame it and hang it in our bedroom so i can see it just before i close my eyes at night.
Thank you God and thanks to anyone here that has given me hope.
And a special shout out to Jenny, our site administrator, for telling me not to give up, i could feel her concern and caring.
The sun shines in my life again, i could dance, i don't know what to do with my happiness, i think i will just bask in it, it feels so good to know my girl is healthy and safe and well on the road to recovery. Thank you, thank you, thank you. |
