Mom vs Heroin: Never a Dull Moment
http://athenarising.blogspot.com/2008/09/never-dull-moment.html
Monday, September 1, 2008. Never a Dull Moment. I feel so bad that I haven't posted recently. I so appreciate all of the nice thoughts everyone has sent our way, and hopefully one day I'll have some free time to blog a bit. Maybe. One day. (smile). Husband and I both started new jobs two weeks ago. Baby got circumcised last Monday. We went to court for 1st custody hearing last Tuesday - Daughter and "boyfriend" were no shows, hearing rescheduled. New Nanny was a no-show last Wednesday. My, how time flies.

Mom vs Heroin: As we head into summer...
http://athenarising.blogspot.com/2008/05/as-we-head-into-summer.html
Tuesday, May 20, 2008. As we head into summer. So - Hope springs eternal, but with a health dose of realism, at least on my part ;-). Optimisim is a GOOD thing. I am glad you are at least on speaking terms with your daughter, and hope she will stay clean, and embrace motherhood and all the joy (? LOL ) that comes with it and her legal problems will work themselves out. Hugs and prayers being sent your way. May 20, 2008 at 2:19 PM. Take care of yourself. I am thinking of you.

Mom vs Heroin: A New Year Awaits
http://athenarising.blogspot.com/2007/12/new-year-awaits.html
Thursday, December 27, 2007. A New Year Awaits. It was an interesting Christmas - A good one, actually, in that I had the whole family here. Including my addicted one. After thinking about it, my husband and I decided that this might be an opportunity to get through to her that we didn't want to miss, so I called her back and she agreed to give me 7 days, without contact with her "boyfriend" who was supposedly also going through withdrawal. She agreed and we went to get her. She was very sick -. She's my...

Mom vs Heroin: Incognito
http://athenarising.blogspot.com/2009/01/incognito.html
Monday, January 12, 2009. Not really - I just thought this was a fun picture. He's an adorable baby - so happy and sweet and blissfully unaware of any drama concerning him. Thankfully. I was slow to catch on - apparently I was supposed to answer calls from this number with a quick message for her, instead of answering with "Hello? The last collect call on Saturday night I had a "collect call from 'MOM! Say yes or no! I'll call you back in 30 minutes'. 1 S $24.98 XBOX 360 GAME. 1 R $24.98 XBOX 360 GAME.

Mom vs Heroin: Hire me - it's ok :-)
http://athenarising.blogspot.com/2014/08/hire-me-its-ok.html
Wednesday, August 13, 2014. Hire me - it's ok :-). As I have been sending out my resume and applying for a new job, it suddenly occurred to me that a prospective employer might search social media and etc. And end up here on my blog. If so, I hope that they can see that my real life experiences that I write about here lend additional skills that add value:. So please, do not let the title of my blog scare you off - in fact, it could lead to an interesting interview! August 19, 2014 at 6:56 PM. Bright eye...

Mom vs Heroin: A new grandson, A new beginning
http://athenarising.blogspot.com/2008/07/new-grandson-new-beginning.html
Friday, July 25, 2008. A new grandson, A new beginning. Oh, what a beautiful baby. mom and baby are doing well. It has been quite a journey these past 3 weeks! Anyway, after 12 hours on the pictocin and pretty strong and regular contractions they checked her and. No change in her cervix! On one hand I understand they were hoping the cervix might just dilate, but on the other they were pretty sure it wouldn't. and they didn't want to give her an epidural until it was time for the c-section because it ...

Mom vs Heroin: In Hospital
http://athenarising.blogspot.com/2008/07/in-hospital.html
Monday, July 7, 2008. Daughter called me yesterday morning a little after 9 because she was "sick" - with withdrawal. She and "boyfriend" both - not because they decided to quit, but because her car broke down. Keep us in your thoughts! This is the best thing that could have happened to her. The contractions probably came on due to the withdrawal. I hope she stays and she may just do so considering they are giving her methadone. You are in my thoughts. July 7, 2008 at 10:32 AM. Mother of drug addict.

Mom vs Heroin: No turning back...
http://athenarising.blogspot.com/2008/06/no-turning-back.html
Thursday, June 26, 2008. How it will all turn out. Daughter 18 and her boyfriend, addicted to heroin, and a baby due any day. she hasn't had prenatal care since April. I did my best "fundus measurement" in a brief visit with her, and the tape measure shows 38 cm. How to reach her? How to protect her from herself? More importantly, how to protect the child on the way without alienating my daughter even more? Imagine - the only thing MORE alienating than heroin). Is your daughter using? June 26, 2008 at 7:...
