My mom's addictions

Postby TheMewster » Wed Jun 22, 2011 7:48 am

Hi guys. My mom is an alcoholic and a smoker. Maybe pack a day, maybe not, I dunno. Anyway, she wants to quit. However, she has to quit drinking before quitting smoking. She would just stop, but it takes a lot of willpower she says she doesn't have, and she is afraid of getting a DT. (which is getting a lot of seizures that can kill you when you stop drinking.) Please pray for her. Thanks and God bless!

DTs are definitely a risk. How much is she drinking?

Sometimes inpatient detox is the only way if the DT risk is high. The drinking risk is far more important -- the smoking will kill her later, but the drinking will kill her now. :(

Thats so sad.....Praying.....
The Holy Father Pope Frances is asking people of all faiths to join together This Saturday, September 7. on the vigil of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary – for a day of fasting and prayer for peace in Syria.


Novena to the Most Powerful Hand
I place my Christian soul before Thee, and in my despair and anguish, beseech Thee to bring
the most powerful strength of Thy Helping Hand to come to my rescue. I place the devotion
of my sorrowful heart at Thy feet that I may be pardoned from a
destiny of suffering. May the loving kindness of Thy Sacred Heart
and the wonders of Thy Powerful Hand help me and give me strength and
wisdom to live in peace and happiness. Amen.
