    I think it might be over

    My mom has finally said we're leaving my dad. I feel really bad for her because she's so upset and I don't want to see her upset at all. Basically we're positive now that my dad is on drugs. Infact today my mom admitted to me that she suspected long before but hoped he would quit on his own, sadly he hasn't and it's put us deep into this hole. We can't do anything else except try and get our own lives restored. My dad has put us through so much crap and doesn't want to get any help for himself, he says this is his thing and he's been taking caring of others for years, it's his time. Well then let it destroy HIS life, I can't forgive him for what he's done to my mom and sisters. We're going to move in with family, put everything into storage so my dad doesn't pawn it off, and find all the animals home. It's going to be extremely stressful I know, but my mom is putting us kids first. Please spare some prayers for us and the pets if you can.

    Megan, you really don't know how much it hurts to see you in such a situation, I am in tears for you. No one should go through this. I really wish I could help, because I know these words probably won't at all. If there was any possible way I could take one of your dogs in I definately would try, but I can't. I am so sorry, I truely am. I'll be thinking of you.

    Thanks guys, it's really good enough to know I have people to rant to when I need it. I really needed to get it out and while I know it's not much, it did help me feel somewhat better.

    Actually I'm at my BFFs house right now and she's not even here. I just kind of walked in the house, saw her mom, and immediately started hugging and crying to her. She knew about my problems and I'm really glad to have her whole family support me the way they are.

    You will be in our prayers, especially in finding a place where you and your animals can stay safely.

    Think of it as a beginning, love, okay? A beginning of your new, happier life.

    I'm so sorry.

    I pray great homes are found for all of your animals and that you and your mom are able to start a new wonderful life together.

    It may be stressful now because you are being uprooted but look ahead, don't dwell on what is gone but what is ahead for you and your Mom. The pay off will be a better less stressful life.

    My brother, a policeman told he he has seen some stuff out on the beat.. One thing he said you learn real quick out there is that once a person is on drugs, that is their ONLY focus in life... the next hit of the drug of choice. He said these people have No Mother, No father, NO sister, No brother, No friend. The drug is their focus and everything else means NOTHING to them.... and you better not get in their way!

    Life can only get better for you now.

    Hi, Megan. {{{{hugs}}}}

    There's a saying that sounds really dumb at a time like this, but just bear with me.

    You know how some people say that when one door closes, another opens?

    Well, that's true - but these people forget to mention that it's h*** in the hallway meantime!

    HUGS and PRAYERS for the open door, and a new beginning for all of you.

    Best of luck to you and your mom. I think your mom is very brave and intelligent.

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.

    Mate.....take one step at a time as you walk away from your past.
    And do not look back, you're not going that way.
