First off, thank you so much Hula for your defense and wise words of wisdom.
Secondly, Kim...I'm sorry that my last sentence hit a nerve. Shame that because of that you lost site of the entire post. It is a positive post, attempting to let people know that the lies and bunk we're being told isn't always an attempt to lie
Thirdly, I am not standing by my husband by a decision I made with the help of God. God alone made this decision as I was pretty much out the door. I just happened to hear and obey Him. We detached from him about 75% when I put him in prison. We detached the rest of the way when he continued to lie and manipulate from prison. Because of our detachment, he finally realized that if he doesn't get it together, he's lost everything, and somewhere, somehow humbled.
Last but not least, you said you made the decision to quit while high...how many times did you make that decision before you followed through on it? A decision is just a thought unless it is followed through on. Good for you! You did follow through. Allow me to give you the pat on the back you don't want because you deserve it. Now, food for thought for you...if someone else did everything to you that you did to your family...would you still be around? My husband told me he would have been long gone.
The family of meth addicts go through so much pain that the meth addict doesn't even see or get, and it continues even when they aren't around. I came home from the hospital after having major surgery....one month shy of being 43 years old, with a newborn and a toddler to take care of all alone, and my house dumped upside down because of the party that went on the day after I gave birth and then the pilfering before I got home to get things to sell for drug money. To handle all of this put my life in danger as I wasn't supposed to do anything but take care of my infant for ten weeks, and my doctor was terrific keeping me out of the hospital. I am now ten plus months into handling the boys on my own at my age without any help, and now and then I get negative....excuse me. I try to be positive, but sometimes it doesn't happen.
If you go back and reread my post without that chip on your shoulder because you did it (a one in a million shot), maybe you can see what I was actually trying to say.
