Where I'm at now...something positive

[Medusa]

Have you tried Melatonin for sleep? You can get it just about anywhere but definitely at health food stores or pharmacies. I used to take it and it helped quite a bit.

...and to think that I'm only a 10 hour drive away. I wish I could be there is help you through this but all I can do is pray for you and send you {{{hugs}}}

Thanks everyone, again. I am so glad I can come here and leave feeling better. I chatted for 40 minutes with my mom, she is great to talk to but when she's gone I find I miss her. I'll have the kittens back tomorrow so that may help a lot.

I forgot to tell you all I saw my doctor this afternoon and got all my cuts and bruises documented. Yes I am still banged up a week later. We had a very good conversation, over an hour.

Gayle, I can get into the city any time. When Cali and Diego get home, and you are up to it, call me. I will call you also in the next couple of days...coffee and me listening are fine by me.

I'm really upset to learn that his mother thinks I make up his drinking and abuse. Her son doesn't drink and drive, drink and fall down, drink and abuse his wife.

Re: his mother... It's hard for a parent to believe something so awful about their child. She is having a hard time believing she could raise someone with the ability to do such things.

I have never been in your situation, but my grandmother was. My grandfather was an alcoholic who abused her. She finally left, but not before years of abuse...

Sending you big, gentle hugs all the way from Phoenix. I know it's hard, but keep moving forward. (((HUGS))))
