I am surprised that your writing your story has made it more present for you - when I write about past events, I find it seems to have the opposite effect; it seems to lay things to rest. I have looked at old posts and realized that I can not remember some of the real names of the people I mention under pseudonyms. I surely hope that things are going well for you.

I am not passing any negative judgment. I just have to say that you are an amazing woman, and strong. It is wonderful that you and your mom have regained a relationship after all this was said and done. And I can only hope that things will get better with your brother...so sad he has become an alcoholic. Thank you for sharing.rapunzel_johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15091995086177389909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026672339680338990.post-82659705175421123472011-03-21T18:11:12.917-04:002011-03-21T18:11:12.917-04:00Sorry, I have been AWOL - I was actually on a jury...Sorry, I have been AWOL - I was actually on a jury in a murder trial myself in the last couple of weeks. I have found - as far as memory goes - that it is a very unreliable thing. Each time you tell about something, you begin to remember it as you told it, rather than as it happened. This is true for everybody. Memory tends to rub off the rough edges, or to make sense of disparate elements that don't seem to hang together at first viewing. This is partly why your dad 'didn't look so bad' after you had other bad experiences. He was a monster. This 'not so bad' thought is one of the things that keep people returning to bad relationships or other situations. You have every right to remember things as you do, and to feel as you do about your mother. Relatives, religions, governments, teachers all try - sometimes "for your own good", more often so that THEIR vision will not be disturbed - to shame, argue, cajole, explain you out of seeing what you do see. What you saw and remember is your truth; it will shape your behavior, no matter what others think. It is not a 10-year-old's responsibility EVER to keep her mother out of jail; it IS a mother's responsibility to keep a child safe. That's the deal when you have a child. You do not need to listen or worry about WHY things happen; to be healthy you must remember as well as you can what DID happen, and let others cover their asses however they wish.DavidShaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02378015294494222646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026672339680338990.post-30376996762598958362011-03-20T18:19:12.452-04:002011-03-20T18:19:12.452-04:00It is nice to know that you and your mother have a...It is nice to know that you and your mother have a good relationship after all that hapened in the past...:)<br /><br />I have to agree with you, you are so right...<br />When we fill ourselves with self loading and nothing seems to be enough to heal those wounds that were made, life is not a beautiful thing...and a pill will never be enough to keep away the past, the pain, the shame and the hatred of ourselves...<br />I think that nothing we can possibly do, will ever be enough to erase that past, that is just like you said...it seems that "it was created just for you."<br /><br />Thak you for stopping by my blogs...i hope to hear from you soon!:)Dinkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17360053529608759329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026672339680338990.post-70661411827454819932011-03-17T16:49:04.159-04:002011-03-17T16:49:04.159-04:00It's amazing that you not only choose to share...It's amazing that you not only choose to share this but that you have come out of the other side with a real relationship with your mother.

It is precisely for the reason you carved into the last paragraph, hurt accumulated through childhood is particularly difficult to shed, as children turn them inward. That is why I continue to cheer you for speaking out, as each word chips at that layer of ice frozen inside. Though the scar may never completely fall off and is painful to look at, its very formation - this story - shows signs of healing. I hope you continue this journey no matter what.Shopgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435291786820680344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026672339680338990.post-52898468271886615572011-03-13T14:57:53.439-04:002011-03-13T14:57:53.439-04:00Dear One Girl,

Well he did, twice, I paid for him to go in August and he stayed 17 days of the 65.<br /><br />He went nuts again at the end of sept. and I had him arrested, he swore he wanted to get better so I paid to send him back to rehab. He stayed 30 days, which wsa a complete full session but he COULD HAVE STAYED 65, for the same price i had paid but chose not to.<br /><br />He is a monster now. His wife finally had to take the truck because he kept drinking and driving and the truck was in her moms name. He had already wrecked it, almost 20 grand in damage (drunk) and they just got it back.<br /><br />He ran, and I took him to turn himself in the next day so he got lucky and did not get a DWI charge.<br /><br />he goes back to court for that March 24, so in couple of weeks, I feel bad saying this but I work in the court system with law enforcement as well, in another county so I am going to Call the DA's office, tell them the truth, tell them he is drinking again and BEG them to give him as much active jail time as possible.<br /><br />His record is horrible so I KNOW they should be able to hold him for at least a couple of months. He has had 4 DUI's befroe he was 25. That was before he got sober for 6 years.<br /><br />But his wife is finallly leaving, I need him out of my home he is renting and i am scared when she leaves he will drink himself to death or kill someone else driving. I think a couple of months, behind bars sober will do him good, give him time to think. Rehab wsa different, he was free to roam, be outdoors, smoke, have his family come up and spend the weekend, this is going to be very different for him.<br /><br />Thank you for your well wishes and for keeping up with the story :-)<br /><br />-One Girls StoryOne Girl's Storyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06417023080381049197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2026672339680338990.post-26463765289909667612011-03-08T09:00:01.120-05:002011-03-08T09:00:01.120-05:00I thought your brother went to rehab??
