Unfortunatly, from what I have heard, she signed herself out.. her *family*
didn't think she should be there because they don't think she really has
a problem.......I will never understand how families can bury their
heads in the sand about a drinking problem.... Well, it was up to her in
the long run and I will be here if she wants help once again... Even though
I am not a member of AA, I still work with the fellowship...
Whenever the hand of AA reaches out, I will be there....
