Drink & drug sister needs help
My sister is a single mum of three. She’s had a tough life – she got pregnant very young and her husband left. Now she’s drinking too much and taking drugs – although she denies it. Last week she was out of it for two days. Her kids were hungry and dirty so I took them home with me. If this carries on they’ll be taken away, which will destroy her. How can I help her?
