Here, summer has hit. Been spending a lot of time at the pool and with my kids. Trying to plan fun for the summer (trip to Alaska) and thinking about returning to school in the fall.
Doing pretty good. Celebrated my little sister’s 17th birthday today. I got to make a strawberry shortcake from scratch, which was fun.
How’s things on your end?
yea. I know that people can change. The kid’s father was an alcoholic as well, but he changed, and although he still drank, it wasn’t as bad as it used to be. I just hate that she had to watch her child die, before she would (potentially) change her ways.
i didn’t want to say so on your post about the alcoholic mother and the tragic death of that baby but..
several years ago, when my wife was at the worst part of her alcoholism, i separated from her and had full custody of our kids while she recovered. we divorced, and when she reached the two-year point of her sobriety, she was able to have half-custody. as far as i know she’s still sober everyday.
even for someone who has been that negligent, there’s hope of recovery. but the woman you mentioned will have to live with the loss of her baby every day.
