Children of Addicted Parents and People

Well i havent written a blog on her since march as i have just plodded on in life.
This past week has been the worst week of my life and i need to get it off my chest.
I had all my girl mates down at my house last saturday night, it was a brilliant night until i had a phone call from my mum, she was as usual drunk and was saying dad is beating her up, come get me. I explained i cant drive as i have drunk alcohol and unable to help. I had to be strict on her, as i know my dad wouldnt lay a finger on her. Well all my mates went off, i think to carry on to town (by the way i live in the channel islands on a 2 mile long island) I had a phone call from my best mate saying my dad has been arrested, my past week has now been a blur. I rang my mum to see what happened and she said she did him for assult, i could have killed her! I knew i had to do something to clear my dad's name, so i rang the police and explained i know he didnt do it as she did the marks on her face the night before whist drunk, so i was at the police station till 2:30am getting questioned. I felt so sorry for my dad when i saw him, he looked so innocent. My mum had gone out of control and this was the beginning of her splitting our family apart.
Dad and my brother moved in with me, as none of us could go to the house unless with the police as she was doing everyone for assult. Even the police wouldnt go without the ambulence crew as they were scared too!!!!!
My dad moped around most of sunday, still in shock. but his name was cleared but the police didnt tell my mum. On sunday we had a phone call saying mum has got two gashes on her face, and that the place was covered in blood, She was arrested for her own saftey and she wouldn't go to the hosptial on her own accord. That day she was arrested about 3 times more as she kept trying to escape the hosptial. Still the doctor hasnt sectioned her!
She was then sent home, for the next few days every morning i had phone calls from family seeing if she was still alive, i asked myself the same question. Mel our family friend, who is checking on my mum, She found she had overdosed at least 3 times on various pain killers, sleeping tablets and anything she could get her hands on. The doctor was called again and yet he still said she is doing nothing illegal and cant help. We were in major need for her to be sectioned, we knew she was going to die!!!! it was only a matter of time.
On thursday afternoon i had a phone call from my dad saying she is trying to leave the island and escape into the uk, she was denyed boarding for being so drunk. I hadnt seen my mum since saturday lunchtime. she looked awful, she had black eyes, black scares on her nose and top lip and cuts all over her face. I am still having nightmares at the moment by the way she looked and i was now begging for her to get help. I didnt wanna see the bottle doing this to my mum, i know it is her illness that is doing this to her.
She was sent home and as we entered the house there was glass at the bottom of the stairs and she had just fallen face first into it. she now looked even worse. Yet again the doctor was called and he still said he can not help!!!!!!!!! he must have been blind. So my dad called the police and explained they will have a body on there hands if they dont do something. They tried there best but couldnt help.
as we were waiting around we were all praying for someone to help us, and then we had a phone call from the doctor sayign she will be sectioned and take by lifeboat to the other island. At last!!!!! i was so happy for her. we then waited around for about 2-3 hours for it to get through the courts, eventually the doctor came round and mum thought this was normal so she didnt suspect anything, and then the police came round and she turned so evil blaming it on everyone, and then as the police were going to arrest her, i saw like a switch in her brain click from angry to this scared little girl as the police got the handcuffs on her. it was horrid.
Well cutting the story, she is now in the mental hosptial getting help, and she knows it was for her own good. it was her birthday yesturday and we couldnt do anything. so hopefully this could be the end of my nightmare and our family can get back to normal. but lets wait and see.
