She sees everything good in my life as "luck" and that everything poor in hers as people out to get her and bad luck. She's not an alcoholic but man could she use CoDA. I stopped myself once from emailing her a whole mess of links to CoDA info, including meeting times in her area.<BR/><BR/>I've got my restraints on, however much they chafe at times. It really is much better for me in the long run, even if it is very painful to watch someone I love hurt themselves when I know there is a better way.<BR/><BR/>~JudithJudithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16354890444410748967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904990175885851041.post-44249686267627147282007-04-25T16:37:00.000-04:002007-04-25T16:37:00.000-04:00That Powerlessness factor is key but sometimes it ...That Powerlessness factor is key but sometimes it can haunt us in certain situations.
