Sister

[Anonymous]

My sister has really thrown her life away. She has become an alcoholic, and was kicked out of her house by her husband a few days ago. Now she showed up at work drunk and was fired. In a few months, she has gone from a job with a huge future and a loving, awesome family to being an out-of-control, jobless alcoholic. She has alienated the family. She has made my mother cry.

I don't know how this happened. If you would, please send up a few prayers that she will admit to her problem and get into rehab, and for her family to get through this amazingly difficult time. I'm not sure this will have a happy ending, but getting her into professional help is the thing we need most right now.

Prayers for your sister and her family.
Get her the help she needs and get her to admit she has a problem. standing by her can be tough but it may be the only way to get her on the road to recovery.

Prayers for your sister and all those hurting who love her. For some to accept help, they must hit bottom. Hopefully, she is there.

An update...and behold the power of prayer on this one...

Yesterday her husband tried one more time, and she finally completely broke down and admitted she has a serious, serious problem. She is entering a live-in rehab center this morning, apologized to my parents, and for the first time seems completely aware of how bad things have gotten. There is light at the end of the tunnel for the first time.

I'm a very frequent poster here, and really appreciated the comments on this. God Bless y'all.

Never under estimate the power of prayers. Good news ! admitting it was the hardest step, support and love should get her though the rest. continued prayers.
