It sounds like you and your mom used to have a really good relationship. First of all I'm really sorry what your going through.

What you should do is to talk to your mom about this. You need to let her know that you love her and want her to stop drinking and to settle it. It will also probably take some time for your mom to recover. I remember when my Grandpa died and how my dad felt for a couple of months. It's been almost a year since he died. So it'll just take about a couple of months for your mom to calm down and move on. Most importantly, you need to spend more time with her, talk with her, and tell her that drinking won't solve any of her problems.

Psalm 46:1

God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.

Psalm 46:5

God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.


Good Luck! ~Jackie
