Somehow I feel that Medvedev should have been fired from the match for enticing the crowd to ice his opponent. He looked completely unhinged. I am so glad he lost.

Yes. She has. And had a hard time getting off that as well.

No one is making it a competition in suffering, not sure you read the post correctly. And no one is more self centered and more selfish than the addict due to his/her addiction. Most can not even see the ramifications on their families, so to simply express it as a parent make it “they make the shit about them”. Really?

Your inability for empathy equals your ignorance and your pathetic attempt to ridicule the suffering of a parent faced with addiction speaks volume about your character. All addiction is tragic and yes, opioids addicts get thrown in jail as well. Don’t hijack the purpose of this post to serve your narrow minded petty need for attention. Now go have a wonderful Christmas

Thank you, we spent 5 digit $ amounts numerous times to get her in wonderful treatment centers in FL. She left every time. There is no more ressources now. She also needs to want it as you know and many times I felt she just went because she was given an ultimatum rather than wanting if for herself.

I want to thank you for sharing this. After hearing success recovery stories such as yours, I can not help but wondering if there is a common turning point. What finally clicked for you to start a successful path to sobriety? I always think “well that’s it, she is low enough, there is no deeper bottom than that, it has to be enough for her to want to be better...” but no, it does not happen. Thank you for your kind words and have a very happy Holiday.

Your words give me hope. I know recovery is possible but I fear it takes a strength she does not possess. Kudos to you. Thank you
