It's been NINE weeks and she hasn't had a drop :)
My mom is a wonderful mother. But when it comes to drinking, she morphs into something else. This is a blog documenting my relationship with her personal demon.

Another Episode, Another Day
I haven't posted a blog in a while, but that's because I haven't really thought about my mom's disease in a while... until last night.

Last Night's Dream
I had a dream last night that I confronted my mom's alcoholism over the delayed ticket conversation.

Here We Go Again...
Since the intervention, I've had plans to visit my mother on Thursday. But I found out today, I had to delay them.
