In the continuing saga of the youngest daughter, S who will not indicate whether she is okay or not, today we continued to try to contact her all to no avail. Her best friend called me to say that she can called the neighbors, and they are concerned as they have not seen S since Monday although they hear her dogs going in and out of the doggie door. Her sister and I discussed that and she finally called the police to do a wellness check. She also called and left a message on the phone to alert her sister that we had contacted the police. Well when the police arrived, the car was gone from the garage and the dogs were racing around in the window. So, we know S is okay...she left the condo knowing the police were coming. I could now gleefully wring her neck for worrying the entire family. I have had visions of her lying unconscious or dead in that condominium. Meanwhile S has been sitting in there listening to all of our messages asking her to call and let us know she is okay and not responding. She is obviously ill -- mentally. We believe she is out of a job, out of money, in a house that is being foreclosed upon and she is deep in debt. Her stories have included that she has a new job in Dallas, a house in Dallas and is moving there this weekend.
There is nothing more that any of us can do except wait until she hits rock bottom. Sad but I must put this in the basket labeled "Things about which I can do nothing" and have the wisdom to know that that is what it is. and I must have faith that God will shed light upon her and clear her vision or force her hand into therapy. All prayers are welcomed.
