The best thing my hubby did was help me take care of little daily things that could send me over the edge in the beginning like making sure I had food, helping with the kids and not asking too much of me. And patience! Know she might be crying a lot or angry or just not her peppy self so just accepting her wherever she is at. And encourage her to go to NA, AA or PA meetings. Don't force it but encourage strongly :) and my friends checked in on me every day for the first month or so..level just a text to tell me to have a great day.
I got better by going to a lot of meetings and not putting any expectations on myself in the beginning. I just needed to get through the day clean. You are a good sister and remember to tell her how proud you are of her and how hard what she is doing is but you KNOW she can do it! Much love, Kerry | ||
