Thanks Brandi, for the kind words. My wife actually started crying with what you said, she thought it was so sweet. She's always telling me I have a problem with guilt (another left over from the org).

My wife managed to get her on her mobile. Three calls managed to get her to tell us where she was so we could pick her up. We went for fish and chips, she started chatting, nothing deep or anything but at least she's home and talking.

One thing she said was how she felt it was unfair that her brother was doing whatever he wanted, although she did make a point of saying not including the drugs. The same with her step sister, which is a whole other post sometime.

Maybe one thing to come out of it is that I've realised I'm not as well as I thought and need to be working on myself.

Anyway, thanks again.
