[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have not read the entire thread but I would highly recommend AlAnon for your and your husband.

[b]Does the sister want to get clean?  If not you are throwing good money after bad.[/b]

[i]No, and I completely agree.  
[/i]

$10,000 sounds like a large amount of money to talk with her about recovery. Can't your husband talk to her directly and see if she wants recovery?  That would save the $10,000.

[i]
He did, and she said no.  So that is why DH wants to do the $10k intervention.  [/i]

Where does your sister live? There are free or reduced cost programs out there.  My brother qualified for a free 4 week program through the State of Maryland and something connected with John Hopkins. He was told Maryland would only pay for one stint in rehab.

[i]She lives in Maryland.  
[/i]

There are also IOP's available.

Check out AlAnon for you.

Be aware that there are no magical rehabs out there to get people clean and sober unless the person wants to be clean and work a recovery program.

[i]Yes, I am well aware of this.  Hence why I am fuming.  [/i][/quote]
