My little sister (17) called this morning to tell me that our mother had been out all night, cracking, (smoking crack cocaine), and has not come home to take her to the hospital to get induced.
Well I cussed a little about mom, got my butt out of bed, and took her to the hospital. Then we realized that mom needed to sign consentment forms because Dana is under 18. Fortunally, I explained the situation, and they allowed me to sign for her, or she would have gone home, and suffered even longer. I stayed with her for awhile, and they told me that the type of induction they are performing on her takes 12 hours, so I decided to come home and let Hubbie work. Mom called before I left crying, saying she was sorry. I always feel bad and forgive her, but this time I told her to not bother Dana, and said, it's going to be hard to get over what you've done if you ever get sober. I'm so angry at her for doing this to Dana. At first I told Dana to not allow her to be permitted to go see the baby, then I thought about it, if she has the guts to come see the baby, look it in the face, maybe that will be the push she needs to get into the Mother Program (outpatient treatment). My heads in a fog at this moment, lack of sleep, and all that. But I'm so excited. My nephew Elijah Dale will be here today. I can't wait to see him. I'll post more afterward. I'll need to brag some...lol.

I am increasingly overwhelmed with all you have to deal with and that you do it so well. (Even if it may not feel like it).
You are incredibly intuitive and really have a wonderful and deep seated maturity. You are very special indeed! I wish your sister and the little baby many blessings. As I do for you!

aaaw, thank you very much all for replying. Everything was wonderful! I'm a new auntie, and my kids now have a new little companion, I just hope a miracle happens and Dana go live someplace safer for her and the baby. Anywhere, here at a friends, I don't care.
The beginning of a new life is truly beautiful. I'm so happy I was able to see Elijah being born, and I'm so happy that I was able to share my knowledge of being a young mother with Dana. Thanks so much!

  Sounds to me like you've got the same hormones flowing that all new mommies have right after the birth of their child! Enjoy, Desirae! You earned it! (In fact, your posts could have started that same flow of hormones in ME!  LOL)Maybe your sis can come live with you?
