Hi-
I found your post on Hard Lessons. Wow, that should be me. My sister, who got me started on ordering meds online, had the time to research other related info. Right from the start, she told me about Milk Thistle, and I've always taken it in desperate hopes to keep away liver damage.
She also told me NEVER to drink. Thank God, that's about the one drug I don't really like! In the last several years, if I go out to eat, I'll order one Bloody Mary, and I just don't feel right. I'll bet my liver just can't process alcohol.
Anyway, THANK YOU for your concern and for referring me to your story. About 3 weeks ago my 2 teenage boys literally ripped the suicide note out of my hands as I was writing it and brought me back to the point of seeing there's something to live for. So I can relate to the whole falling apart in front of your children. I never thought I hit "rock bottom," but if I get real with myself, that day was it.
Thanks again, you've helped tremendously.
Your welcome Betsy,
I always worried about my liver too. Just be careful, because what happened to me came out of the blue. It was really scary and I still think about it everyday. I have to go to the doctor every 2 weeks for 6 months for bloodwork, went today as a matter of fact and thank God my liver is and continues to be fine.
Again, glad I could help. God bless you.........Briar

Glad to hear that you are okay, Briar. What is your situation? How are you doing? Last I heard, you were thinking of inpatient.
How is it going?

Hi Kerry,
I guess I'm doing okay. I have a long situation. Haven't been to inpatient yet. You see, my husband is still in WI and the kids and I are in AZ.
He's on probation there and there was a huge mistake in his interstate compact (switiching his probation from one state to another). Anyway, he got here after not being with us for about six months, only to find out that he had to return to WI because his probation officer did the paperwork wrong. Its a nightmare. Everyone I know is telling us to sue for the damages of separating our family through the fault of the state of WI; regardless, he's there and we're here and I can't leave until he gets back. We've been married for 20 years and I've always stayed home with the kids and they're devistated and have been for the past several months about being separated from their dad. I have a good friend here, who I've known since I've been here, her and her husband have offered to take care of the kids, but I can't leave them, not till their dad gets back, so I guess to answer your question, its on the back burner still.
Sometimes life throws things at us and a big fault of mine is just going into my shell, pretending like nothing is wrong and going on with life for the sake of my children. I tend to put my problems aside and go on for them. I know thats not good, but thats the way it is. I've not been posting or reading here for quite awhile, just been in my own little shell, with my problem still haunting me and nagging at me constantly and knowing its there and not knowing what to do.
I just stay in the shell and protect the kids, I don't know, been pretty down I guess. Thanks for asking about me tho; I hope all is well with you and everyone else...........With love..........Briar
