One of my sisters who lurks and posts here, LibbyDoe, is in distress.  I could use some prayers for her.  She and her H of three/four years are at the breaking point and she is not doing well.<p>Thanks, C A L I<p>[ November 21, 2001: Message edited by: TryingAgain ]</p> |  |  |

TA,<p>I am so sorry for your sister.  This is so scarry.  I do not know her story or how long she has been suffering.  You say she is under supervision?  I know you are so worried. Is this specifically related to her marriage?<p>Estes |  |  |

Yes...her H has been 'threatening' to leave for sometime...<p>She has told me some of the normal 'script' he has been saying.<p>He did not call us about this...mom called her work to see when she was going to be picked up for Thanksgiving and sister's manager had to tell us.  When I called her H, he told us WE would have to deal with her, he was DONE...HE didn't want to see her anymore.<p>My mom seems to be hanging rather well...we have a pretty good support system out here...one more reason why I have been able to get strong as fast as I have...[ November 23, 2001: Message edited by: TryingAgain ]<p>[ November 23, 2001: Message edited by: TryingAgain ]</p>

Not knowing the whole situation, I would say it is safer for your S to be away from these people for good.  This is so dangerous.  I will pray for your family.  I will be out-of-town until next Monday, but I will try to check on her progress if I get to a computer.<p>Thinking of your family,  Estes

Dear TA. <p>Wow. On top of it all....maybe this is what your H needs to see, what real families do for real families.  Family love through better or worse are more than just words, they are best seen in action.  <p>I will keep your entire family in my prayers.  I am glad your H has opened up and let your family in during this crisis.  <p>Take Care, L.

She will be added to my prayer list too. Your house sounds full and hopefully you will gather a lot of strength for each other by being together.  <p>Take care...will check in when I get back from Dallas...Pat |  |  |

TA, Prayers going out to both you and your sister. She is lucky to have such a supporting family.<p>Hopefully this will help your H see the other side of things. Maybe it will even bring them closer and she can share some infinate wisdom with him (that he may actually listen to).<p>HbH |  |  |
