Vent Venty Vent Vent
I'm going to say somethings that are awful and venty. Just know that in advance if you actually read this.
My sister is nearly 23 years old.
She has a three year old son. He is adorable and smart and loves his Nana and Mommy.
She is a drug addict who up until this weekend had been "sober" for three years. I put that in quotations because she called herself sober and I called her self medicating with things other than crack and meth.
This weekend she went on an all weekend crack binge. She pawned her phone for money and refused to spend any time with her son. Then on Monday told my mom to get her help. My mother took the day off of work and talked herself horse trying to find my sister a rehab. These things take time, they don't happen over night but this is what my sister expects. She called my mother awful things, said it was my mothers fault that she was an addict, claimed that if my mother had been better this never would have happened.
That is bullshit. My mother is not perfect but after going through what she has she should be declared a saint.
I called my sister to let her know that this time we are done. That I can no longer allow her into my life. That I will not allow her into my childs life. She told me that her life was in shambles because of me. Because I didn't protect her. Because I let her be abused by our step-father. Because I got all of the attention growing up. I told her that it was bullshit.
Why does it hurt?
