Hi frenchies,
You are important!
I'm sorry to hear how things have been so rough...
I can relate to having alcoholism in the family (my parents).
Have you ever gotten to an Al Anon meeting? I have found Al Anon super helpful...

You deserve to feel good.
Also... Making people laugh is super important.
Sending supportive thoughts your way...
Elana
