Ouch I have lost myself again
Lost myself and I am nowhere to be found.
Breath Me.
This is what rock bottom feels like. I feel like shit. I want to drink. But i'm fighting with every ounce of self control not too.
My marriage is on the very edge of collapse. And i won't see my daughter again unless i get clean.
How did i let my life and family become so broken and out of control.? Lucas thought to himself. As he left the home.
He was in no condition to drive. He walked straight to where he knew he needed to be.

Karen finished putting out the desserts and had fresh coffee. She was just about to put the sign to her cafe to open when Lucas walked in.
Karen placed down the coffee mug.
"Mom. I need help. Everything is such a mess."
"I don't know what to do." Lucas announced. The emotion in his voice thick.
Karen engulfed him in a hug. "My boy. Its going to be okay." She reassured him.

Brooke quietly made her way into the hallway. Bridget was down for her scheduled nap.
Which gave Brooke some time to herself. To reflect and breath.
She stared down at her ring finger. She never wanted or planned to take off her wedding ring. But she had to make a point. Show how serious she was in words and actions.
A text notification. Brought Brooke's attention to her cellphone.
That she quickly dug out of her pocket.
He's ready to get help. Karen had texted.
Brooke breathed a sigh of relief.
Take him to the airport. He has a room at the treatment center. I arranged everything. Brooke replied.
Feeling tears come down her face.
