Thank you.
I have helped him to the tune of a lot of money.
Where he is, apparently, is not good ... but he doesn’t have his guns.
His car is here. I towed the belongings back.
He went back to where he’s in the National Guard.
We thought he had changed his station....but there’s also a ... woman out there.
And...he left his 5 year old daughter (I originally went to just get her...but HE decided he wanted me to bring him home...) So, we have ONE of his kids...the mother is ANOTHER story. She gives her kids away...she had TWO before she met him and gave them up to the father...my nephew has THREE with her and she just gave the oldest girl away to my brother and SIL...
I’m an idiot.
I feel like such an idiot...but...
WHAT ELSE COULD I DO? It’s family.
Gramma, your wisdom and prayers are needed here.
You are NOT an “idiot” for trying to help!!!
I have a friend who’s SORT of in a situation like this...and yeah, it’s been WAY beyond hard for she & her husband....unless people have walked in your shoes they have NO idea, do they?
Like you said..IT’S FAMILY and you do what you do! You do the best you can with the resources you have..and you pray, and you help.
Plain. And. Simple.
Here is the number of the National VA suicide Hotline...
1-800-273-talk( 8255)
anyone can call on behalf of a veteran, as well as the veteran. they will tell you what you can do or where he can get help.
For most VA encounters, it will not interfere with his getting a job. If he does something rash however, by not getting help, THAt would interfere with his getting a job.
