Well done pink cat i do hope that helps Jan please stay in touch. i do have to agree with Jan on thing no one should have sent her posts here to her daughter as it would have looked blown out of propartion wud hav better to e-mail Bonnie stating concern. I wudn't like certain family or friends to know what i post here it private but i have told one friend that i belong to this forumn. Just my humble opinion. Molly thanks for your pm i'm so glad to hear that rehab worked so well for you. Wishing you every success.

What good would leaving do Jan? Leave you even more isolated than before I expect.
I KNOW you are angry, I know you are scared but not "only a few are listening" WE ALL ARE, we are all concerned for your welfare and for Ollie's.
Actually, ya know what Jan, I feckin WISH someone had taken me out of my house when I was a kid and let my parents get better, it would have saved so much heartache, hurt, confusion, nervousness, self doubt and attention seeking behaviour.
Living with an alcoholic when you are a kid is hell, you blame yourself, you try to help, you resent, you try to protect, you get hurt and act out.
You can try to brush the fact that you are drinking and popping pills under the carpet, we all know, we are all alcoholics too, you cannot fool us. The reason that Bonnie was contacted was because people who care about you were very afraid for Ollie and for you, sometimes an intervention is necessary.
Don't be annoyed with Bonnie, she is trying to hold it all together, I can identify with her very much."It's not your job to like me, it's mine!"

Having watched from afar and staying silent but worried as heck about the welfare of a young child, I send kudos to whomever had the courage to take a small step to help.
Jan, as Oney and others have said, one post does not tell the entire story. The sum of the posts do and at the end of the day, the single most important person in this tale is Ollie. Sometimes, we have to take the most difficult steps in life to do the right thing.
Mario is right. Until you help yourself first and foremost, you cannot help Ollie. He deserves a mum who is sober and able to deal with his issues. Raising children is the most difficult "job" I ever had and I had a very difficult child to raise, myself, so I know the feelings of despair, fear and frustration. But first, take care of yourself so you can truly help him.
Much love to you, Ollie and all those here who are caring enough to speak honestly to you. You are lucky to have the army behind you. I hope you reach the point in life where you can realize this and be grateful for it, yourself.
Love,
CindiAF April 9, 2016
