Praise the Lord, Amanda! Situations like this is always difficult! You
did the right thing to stand up to her. I am glad no one was hurt!
Maybe it will be a lesson with all involved that your cousin was out of
control!!
Sometimes it takes tough love!!

I have decided that my couzin is a true christmas scrooge. The family is so
angry at me that it is ridiculous. I had to do a terrible thing today. I called
the police and had my couzin arrested. 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.
Have A Beautiful Day, Each And Every Day!
