THE NEWS-TELEGRAM, Sulphur Springs, Texas, Wednesday, February 15, IMS—8.
Don’t give up on addicts, mother says
Dear Aaa Leaden: My beautiful,
bright 27-year-old appeared at my
doorstep one evening last year with
her 18-month-old child in her arms.
She had lost 30 pound* and was
flying high on cocaine.
We put her in a hospital, but her
“connection” kept bringing drugs
to her room.
Three weeks into the program,
her doctor called me and said.
“Come and get your daughter She
is not responding to treatment.” I
knew die was dying, so I mt and
prayed. I picked up the phone,
called a substance abuse clinic and
told them my story.
That very day I said to my
daughter. “Pack your dothes. I'm
taking you to a place where you are
going to grt well.” I prayed for 200
miles.
Today my daughter is six months
dean. From the dinic she went to a
halfway house. She now has a good
job, lives with two recovering
addicts and will have her little girl
with her within three weeks She
goes to Alcoholics Anonymous ev-
ery day and is very happy.
The message for your readers
with loved ones who are addicted is
DONT GIVE UP Remember that
addicts are powerless to hdp them-
selves. They need hdp from some-
one who is dear-headed and will
stick by them and insist that they
grt treatment
Thanks. Ann. for listening to a
story with a happy ending No
name, please. - AUSTIN, TEX
DEAR AUSTIN: Beautiful I'm
sure your letter will give encourage-
ment to those who are struggling
with the agonizing problem you
faced a while back They need the
r
Ann
Landers
kind of hope you have given them
Bless you for sharing
Dear Ana lasdert: I've never
seen this problem in your column
and I'm too embarrassed to ask
anyone else about this. I hope you
can help me.
I am a 45-year-old woman, hap-
pily married for 25 years (I
thought).
Last spring, my 16-year-old
daughter introduced me to her new
boyfriend. He was 22. After meeting
him I frit as if I were 16 and it was
“love at first sight " They continued
to see one another all summer and
fall, and she told me that she was
crazy about him Every time I saw
the young fella my heart thumped
like mad. but of course I kept my
feelings to myself I prayed that
they would become engaged al-
though deep down I knew she was
too young for that
Two weeks ago they broke up I
don't know what happened and I
didn't ask. But. Ann. I can t seem to
get over it I am heartbroken and
there is a big void in my life My
daughter never talks about him and
seems to he adjusting very well But
I'm a wreck. None of this makes
any sense I'm ashamed of myself
Am I sick? Can you help? Please
try -- MENOPAUSAL MAMA
(SAN DIEGO)
DEAR M.M.: Some mothers have
a tendency to relive their lives
7
through their daughters I wouldn't
call it 'sick.'' but it isn’t entirely
healthy
In tune- you will recover. Mom
Meanwhile. I hope you won't
pressure your daughter to get back
with the fellow It would be better
for all concerned if she dated a
young man you didn't have a mad
crush on.
Dear Ann landers: I hate being
pestered by people who intrude on
my privacy and try to sell me
something over the telephone.
Many of these calls originate in
other cities How can I escape these
pests'* - TORRANCE. CALIF
