She did it, she went into rehab. I am......i don't know, I don't think I'm allowing myself, or i just don't have, Hope. She won't be able to contact anyone for a week, if i have the details right. The son-in-law called us and told us about it. My baby girl and I am powerless.

Those "no contact" clauses always give me a bit of the shivers, but I guess I understand where they're coming from, on some level. Hope is good, and justified, in my opinion--it's different from optimism. May she find safety, hope and light herself--new perspectives.

It must feel so awful not to be able to just pull her out of her darkness, and save her. If only you could! But you used the power you have to stick with her, day by day, until she was able to take this step. I have no doubt that was crucial. Please let me know what develops--thinking of her, and you.
