Oh, the more it changes, the more it stays the same

Today we discovered that Mum has been drinking for nearly nine months, and that she'd told all her friends that her doctor had said it was okay for her to drink. (What he actually told her was "You'll probably die if you start drinking again." You can see how easily one might confuse the two.) My sisters and I were the only people not to have known.

Tara says my niece has been crying and fretting for her Marnie that she loves.

Having been through somewhat similar experiences with family members (though not as close as a parent) I have at least a small understanding of what you must be feeling just now. I certainly understand the anger / worry part.

Unfortunately I don't have anything useful to offer other than the usual good thoughts. Take care, Liz.
