[quote=Anonymous]One of my siblings has been addicted to crack for many years. We have not actually seen each other for about ten years because of it (and because she does not live in the area). In fact, we had hardly spoken during all of that time. A couple of months ago, she was released from jail after being there more than a year. She has said that she has been sober since then. In the last few months we have been in touch via email and texting. I am supposed to see her soon for a very short visit. I am excited to see her-I have missed her and honestly never thought I would see her again. I am also very nervous. If anyone has experienced a similar situation before (or is now sober after an addiction), do you have any recommendations of things that are best left unsaid or, even better, things that helped you/your loved one reconnect in a positive way after being disconnected for so long?
