How do you cope with your last grand parent dying, when you’ve only known your mothers side of your family?

DRUG ADDICTION REHAB 7 Comments »

My grandpa died when I was 20. I talked to him for two hours on the phone the day he died. He was my best friend, and my youngest aunt said his last words were “get Jason he can help”. I’ve never met my father, and I hear he is a piece of work. I called my grandmother on that side of the family and she told me she is an 80 year old blind woman and wanted to be left alone.

I do love my grandmother on my mom’s side, and my real mom died 5 years ago. I was adopted by my oldest aunt. So I know a lot about loss. I’m just wondering how people feel about losing most of their family before they are even 32? I turn 32 next week.

I think of historical figures like George Washington who was given an estate at the young age of 17 because both his father and uncle died in their 40′s. I’m sure he was a strong person that was able to lead not only his family, but troops, and eventually go against the greatest empire.

What are your thoughts on loss? I think the most inspirational book I read on this topic was ‘Why Bad Things Happen to Good People’ by Harold S. Kushner. But sometimes I feel little solace anyway. I wrote my grandma a letter last week that she read. My meth addicted uncle won’t let me visit her because he calls the cops since I turned him in for abusing her. And she supported him because that is her way when the department of aging came to check on her.

How do you deal with loss?

What to do when someone is literally dying of alcoholism?

ALCOHOLISM ADDICTION 7 Comments »

My husband is dying of alcoholism. No amount of rehabs, hospitalizations, 6 month stay at the Salvation Army Adult Rehab twice…nothing has worked. He’s ashamed and worried and scared. He really does not want to die. and he’s almost at the end. They should commit an alcoholic. If he’s not a danger to himself, I don’t know who is.

ADDICTION NEWS 2 Comments »

WARNING! We use the dangerous and useless sauna detoxification system made up by L. Ron Hubbard! Michigan Corrections Department psychologist John Hand called Narconon “so misleading as to be termed a ‘con.’” Hand said, “They are phony, a front for the ‘Church’ of Scientology. We found out in Michigan that most of the money that we were paying Narconon was laundered back into the ‘Church’ of Scientology.”
