Lioness Knowflake Posts: 2076 From: Registered: Mar 2010	posted April 22, 2011 09:54 PM As some of you know my entire family lives 3k miles away... Ive havent had much contact with my family.. But regardless they are still in my heart... BUT everyone is so messed up. I wonder if its even worth knowing them.... I feel awful saying that... But its just terrible! My mom moved me away from everyone... I literally have no close family.. I dont know if I can even feel... Yet I feel awful and ****** at the same time! Am I the black sheep of the family because I didnt get into the self abuse that everyone else has?? My aunt is 62 She has emphysema. She was having breathing problems and was rushed to the hospital. She was told she has to stay because she has phenomena. Well to add to her problems she is a severe alcoholic and being in the hospital w/o alcohol sent her body into shock and serious withdraw. Her body cant handle not having alcohol.. She only weighs like 80lbs.. Its very very sad to look at her.. Anyways she was giving medicine for the alcohol withdraw a detox so to speak.. IDK her body just cant handle not having alcohol.. She ended up slipping into a coma, she is now in a coma... She is in ICU.. The hospital has suggested her last rights be read to her.. That we can only sit and wait.... Just awful... Well what upsets me is her kids (my cousins) show up at the hospital so stoned or what ever that they cant even comprehend whats going on.. They cant even stay at the hospital they have to leave, for what to go take more??? Because they cant deal?? I dont know, I dont get it! How can they do this? What is this.. Shouldnt they be there? Am I wrong for being upset.. Cant they see what she has done to herself? Wouldnt that make you want to stay away from that life, when you see how horrible it is? Why would someone continue the line of self abuse? I want to yell and scream.. GET A GRIP AND DEAL!!! LEARN from IT!!! SEE IT!!! Dont be so stupid and do the same thing? Because in 30 years it will be you in that bed!!! Your kids here stoned and not being able to deal! Break the cycle!!! Dam it!! Maybe it was a good thing, I was taken away from that part of the family at a young age.. My mom called me very upset because my aunts kids showed up like that, when they are needed the most.. Then they had to just leave, only staying for a short while... I feel that my aunt is in a lot of pain, and she is just suffering... I hope she can be released from all the suffering.... I feel its time! Please pray for peace not suffering for her... She has had a hard life,is is due for peace! I feel awful for saying this.. This is how I really feel..... IP: Logged

May her spirit soar one day! Im upset with my cousins not being there for her, and running to alcohol/drugs to deal when they see where it leads. Making useless scenes. IP: Logged

You have every right to feel the way you do, because their behaviour is disturbing. They are all addicts.... they don't want to deal with the truth in front of them because frankly they can't. Don't expect much from them Destiny had it so you don't have to deal with all of that so close to home. Maybe that's a good thing. You can't fix people, esp family members. I am really sorry to hear about your aunt, blessings to you and your family xxx IP: Logged
