[quote=Anonymous]If her mom needs support, suggest that she check out local Al-anon meetings. Those are support groups for the family members of addicts and can be really helpful in understanding what you can do to help (and what parts you can't really help with). Encourage your SIL by offering to attend meetings with her (or making it easy for your DW to do so). And just show her love and compassion. Most people are pretty embarrassed when it gets bad enough that everyone knows they are in detox or rehab. Just letting her know that you love her is one of the nicest things you can do right now.[/quote]
