I had told all of you some time back about her problems and the
family's insistance that I was a terrible person for not supporting
her and buying lavish presents. My husband is an ex navy seal. We
took his christmas bonus and donated food and toys and toiletries to
a spouse abuse shelter. It was amazing to see these women and
children, with no homes of their own, laughing and smiling. To see a
simple tube of chapstick make them so happy. To see dollar tree toys
so eagerly recieved. I came home grateful that I had a happy loving
home where I was safe and loved. We were home for a few hours when
she came to the house. When we refused to let her in, it was obvious
she was drunk, she threw a rock through the living room window. I was
shocked as she stood at the
> broken window screaming and threatening. My poor little chihuahua
Ozzy was so scared but then she started throwing things at me and he
got so angry. He lunged at her, I had to struggle to hold him. He was
so intent on protecting me that he stepped on a piece of glass and
didnt even realize he was hurt. I had to press charges. At least in
jail she cant get drugs or alcohol. I rushed Ozzy to the vet and the
officers were kind enough to give us an escort and to say with us til
the vet got there. The vet said he was fine and didnt even need
stitches. By bedtime I had to turn off the phone because the family
was calling telling me I was a horrible person. But I stood by my
decision. Then her mom showed up at the house. I thought that another
fight was about to start. But she shocked me. She brought a bag of
treats for Ozzy. Then she hugged me and thanked me. She said now my
couzin would have to face the truth and get the help she needs. I
just wanted to say
> thank you to everyone on here. You told me to pray for her and
refuse to baby her. I couldnt have stayed strong without all of you.
Happy new year to all of you.

YOU DID THE RIGHT THING!! We lost my son to drugs and I keep telling
myself that if I hadn't babied him and hid things from my husband, he
might be here today. I loved him so much and always tried to protect
him. But I was wrong. Maybe when he took things from our home when
he wasn't supposed to I should have pressed
charges ..maybe...mayabe..what is the sense. We found him in his bed
on Dec. 29th. This is why I cannot cope with the holidays. They are
awful for me. He was my best friend and the kindest person you ever
met. He gave away his coats to homeless...I could go on and on about
the kind things he did. He had nothing because he gave everything
away. The priest in my parish said a beautiful homily at his wake
telling how religious he was and helped everyone. She may hate you
for a while, but in the long run you are really helping her. Don't
let your family talk you out of pressing charges. In jail she will
get the help she needs. There are many programs there if he makes
use of them. God bless you and good luck.
