Farewell Mass and Presentation
This event to mark the retirement of Lisboduff N.S. principal Mrs Kathleen Leddy took place on Friday night week. Proceedings began with Mass in Bunnoe Church which was concelebrated by Fr Gerard Cusack, Fr Gabriel Kelly and Fr Noel Boylan. There was great participation in the Mass from pupils past and present and teachers. After Mass there was a short recital from Bunnoe Brass Band , many members of whom were past pupils of Mrs Leddy. This was followed by a social in the Community Centre where a number of presentations were made to Mrs Leddy by the parents association, the board of management and the local football clubs. The Leddy family presented a beautiful framed picture to the Bunnoe Community and this will be on display in The Community Centre shortly. Music in the Centre was provided by local musicians, while the display of old photographs evoked many great memories and conversation on the night. The very large attendance on the night was a testament to the great esteem in which Mrs Leddy was held during her 31 year tenure in Lisboduff NS.
Great credit is due to the parents association for their meticulous organizing of this event.

Farewell Mass and Presentation
This event to mark the retirement of Lisboduff N.S. principal Mrs Kathleen Leddy took place on Friday night last. Proceedings began with Mass in Bunnoe Church which was concelebrated by Fr Gerard Cusack, Fr Gabriel Kelly and Fr Noel Boylan. There was great participation in the Mass from pupils past and present and teachers. After Mass there was a short recital from Bunnoe Brass Band , many members of whom were past pupils of Mrs Leddy. This was followed by a social in the Community Centre where a number of presentations were made to Mrs Leddy by the parents association, the board of management and the local football clubs. The Leddy family presented a beautiful framed picture to the Bunnoe Community and this will be on display in The Community Centre shortly. Music in the Centre was provided by local musicians, while the display of old photographs evoked many great memories and conversation on the night. The very large attendance on the night was a testament to the great esteem in which Mrs Leddy was held during her 31 year tenure in Lisboduff NS.
Great credit is due to the parents association for their meticulous organizing of this event.

Mr Tony Fitzsimons
There was sorrow and regret in the local community at the news of the death of Mr Tony Fitzsimons , Dungonnon, Lisboduff which occurred on Wednesday last at Esker Lodge nursing home where he had spent the last number of months. Aged 74 years Tony was a quiet friendly man who enjoyed the company of his neighbours and many friends. A man of great faith Tony was a great supporter of all local organisations and events. He particularly enjoyed his involvement with the local Senior social club. Down the years he had a great interest in the local Drung GFC ,especially in the 1930s & 40s when a number of his brothers formed the backbone of the team, but he still followed their fortunes up until his health began to deteriorate in recent months. Tony is survived by his brothers Dessie and Joe and sister Philomena all in U.S.A, sister in law, nephews and nieces relatives and friends to whom sympathy is extended. His funeral Mass took place on Saturday in St Mary’s Church Bunnoe with burial afterwards in Drung cemetery.

Fr Benny Maguire
There was sadness throughout the local area with the news of the death of Fr Benny Maguire on Sunday morning. A native of Crosserlough, he served as curate in Bunnoe from 1975 to 1982. A keen GAA man he was part of the great Crosserlough 7-in a row team. He managed the Cavan County team in the mid to late 1970’s and he also managed the St Pats Hogan Cup winning team in 1972. In 1980 he led the local Drung team to Junior Championship glory. Fr Benny was also a very active fisherman and spent many hours fishing on Lough Sheelin. Aside from his sporting duties he carried out his clerical duties diligently and gave generously of his time to his parishioners who hold fond memories of his time in the community. Sympathy is extended to his brothers Philip, Crosserlough, Seamus, Mullingar, sister Mary Matthews, Virginia, nephews, nieces relatives and friends.

Stop the Immigration, Residence and Protection Bill 20Join us to the DEMONSTRATION to be held on THURSDAY the 11th of NOVEMBER at 5.30pm at the Dail in Kildare Street Dublin 2
In a socio-economic situation that is becoming increasingly hostile to ordinary people, the government is about to implement a new piece of legislation to further destabilise the lives of migrants and their families in Ireland. This bill is just proceeding through committee stage.
We believe that the Immigration, Residence and Protection Bill 2010 is highly unjust. It creates a culture of fear and it maintains and increases state’s racism. For example, as it stands the Bill authorizes the Gardai to pull over and question any person they believe doesn’t have legal residence in the country. This will most likely lead to a process of screening according to skin colour. Moreover, Irish citizens will not have a statutory right to be joined by non Irish family members in Ireland, which constitutes a “reverse discrimination” in comparison to the rights that apply to other EU citizens under the EU Free Movement Directive (2004/38EC). In addition, the IRP Bill will further undermine the rights of migrants who study and work at the university, by maintaining the exclusion of asylum seekers from 3rd level education and by prohibiting students from applying for long term residency in Ireland.
We are calling for your support in order to stop this shameful piece of legislation to be applied.
The Gardai should not be enabled to harass people on the base of their ‘racial profile’
Irish citizens should benefit from the EU Free Movement Directive (2004/38EC) and have the right to be joined by non-Irish family members in Ireland
Long term residency in Ireland should be guaranteed to every student.
EVERYBODY IS EQUAL AND SHOULD BE TREATED ON THE BASIS OF EQUALITY!

Death of Mr Gerry Fay
The death took place at his home in Birmingham of Gerry Fay formerly of Longfield, Lisboduff on Thursday 30th September. In his early sixties, Gerry emigrated to England in 1969. He married Rose Reilly from Drumcondra in 1970 and they settled in Hall Green, Birmingham. A plasterer by trade, he made many friends through his work and this was borne out by the large attendance at the removal of his remains and Mass at The Holy Souls Church, Acocks Green on Wednesday evening. Gerry was a very happy and friendly man who was held in high esteem by all who knew him. He suffered ill health at the age of 50 but continued to enjoy life. He had a successful kidney transplant over four years ago which gave him a new lease of life but unfortunately he was diagnosed with cancer three months ago. His illnesses were borne with great dignity. His remains arrived in Killoughter Church on Thursday evening last and his burial took place in adjoining cemetery on Friday morning. His funeral Mass was concelebrated by Fr Pat Bannon, Fr Felim McGovern, and Fr Johnny Cusack. He is survived by his wife Rose, sons Ciaran and Padraig, grandchildren Tom and Anne, brothers Paddy, Bunnoe; Tommy,London; sisters Moyra Wynne, Sligo; Bridie Culligy, London; Eileen Learnihan,London and Betty Smith Drung to whom sympathy is extended.

Africa Day Festival Event to Take Place in Dublin’s Iveagh Gardens
African food, music, games and customs will be showcased at Irish Aid’s Africa Day Dublin, which takes place in the Iveagh Gardens on Sunday, 16th May. The event will be family-focused, with specific elements for children, including giant snakes and ladders, family treasure hunts, sports and art activities.
The Africa Day Dublin event will run from 12 noon until 7pm, and entry is free of charge. Access will be through the Clonmel Street (just off Harcourt Street) entrance to the Iveagh Gardens, and visitors are advised to use public transport to travel to the venue, as parking will be severely limited in the area.
Africa Day Dublin is hosted by Irish Aid, Ireland’s overseas development programme. Some of the highlights will include:
Music
The Main Stage at Africa Day Dublin will feature an attractive line-up of both African and Irish performers. Congolese musician Niwel Tsumbu and Irish musician Dave Flynn have developed a special Africa Day collaboration and will perform together at the event. Senegalese kora master and griot, Solo Cissokho, will perform, as will Choice Music Prize winner Jape; trad Irish act Fidil; The Amazing Few; the Discovery Gospel Choir, and the Newpark Afro-Cuban Orchestra.
There will also be a second stage at the event – Stage Two – featuring a range of African and Irish rappers, hip-hop artists, DJs and bands over the course of the day. Highlights will include sets by Groovalizacion DJs; Funzo; Madu, and DJ Wax.
African Bazaar
In the African Bazaar, visitors to Africa Day Dublin can take a crash course in Ugandan or Bini dancing; learn some simple Swahili phrases; model traditional Kasai costumes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, or try out a tent used by the Taureg nomads of Mali. There will also be hair-braiding; traditional Nigerian masquerade performers; Abyssinian and Afro-Caribbean music; African board games; delicious food samples from Malawi, Zimbabwe and Cameroon, and arts and crafts displays from all over Africa. A ‘Best Dressed’ competition will take place over the course of the day, with prizes for those dressed in the most colourful African attire.
Food
This year at Africa Day Dublin, there will be several African food vendors offering a wide variety of authentic African food and drinks for visitors to purchase. There will also be a workshop on African food hosted by Ross Golden-Bannon, Editor of FOOD&WINE Magazine, who will be joined by a range of high-profile panellists, such as celebrity chef and cookery tutor Rozanne Stevens (originally from South Africa) and celebrity food blogger Donal Skehan.
Education Zone
In the Education Zone, visitors to Africa Day Dublin can find out more about development issues through participating in fun, family-friendly activities - try on traditional Mauritanian clothes; visit the ‘Because I Am A Girl’ photo exhibition; plant a seed to grow a vegetable commonly eaten in Africa, or take part in a jigsaw puzzle competition. Visitors can also take part in drumming contests, have their hands painted with henna tattoos, and test their knowledge of African countries and foods.
Speakers’ Corner
The Speakers’ Corner at Africa Day Dublin will feature a range of workshops over the course of the day, including an Africa Day Book Club discussion on the classic novel ‘Things Fall Apart’ by Chinua Achebe. Chaired by Seán Rocks, presenter of the ‘Arena’ arts programme on RTÉ Radio 1, panellists will include Newstalk presenter Orla Barry, award-winning writer Claire Kilroy; journalist Roisin Ingle; South African writer Thabi Madide, and Chinedu Onyejelem, Editor of Metro Éireann.
A discussion on ‘How to Build Ireland’s Engagement with Africa’ will also take place, with input from the Minister of State for Overseas Development, Peter Power TD. Chaired by RTÉ newsreader Bryan Dobson, discussion panellists will include Justin Kicullen, Director of Trócaire; broadcaster and travel writer Manchán Magan, and Salome Mbugua, Director of AkiDwA, the African Women’s Network.
Sports and Play area
Children visiting Africa Day Dublin can try their hand at traditional African games, such as Ingoma Bawo, the Malawian version of an ancient African board game. They can also enter quizzes and jigsaw puzzle competitions; participate in a drumming workshop; learn how to make traditional Ugandan toys out of banana fibres, and take part in African-themed art activities.
Sports activities will be offered by the Football Association of Ireland (FAI) and the GAA, who will be hosting numerous activities over the course of the day. Ex-All-Ireland winning hurler, George O'Connor, will be at the event to demonstrate basic hurling skills and encourage visitors to try their hand at the game.
Music Tent
A number of workshops with Main Stage performers will take place in the Music Tent over the course of Africa Day Dublin, including a drumming workshop with members of the Discovery Gospel Choir; a discussion of the Senegalese griot tradition with Solo Cissokho, and a workshop on the influence of African music on jazz and Latin music.

Cavan Family Resource Centre (CFRC)
A Border Region Befrinding Project
Cavan Family Resource Centre has received funding from the EU Peace lll Programme to offer a Befriending Service in Counties Fermanagh, Monaghan, Leitrim and Cavan. Those affected in any way by the Troubles in the Border Region are particularily welcome to avail of this Service.
What is a Befriending Scheme?
A Befriending Scheme is an arrangement where a trained Volunteer visits someone who has very few social outlets. The Volunteer is known as the Befriender and the person being visited is known as the Befriendee.
Befriending is:
- Spending time together....
- Having fun....
- Chatting with a companion you can trust....
- Going places together....
- Offering encouragement....
- Opportunity to meet others....
How often does the Volunteer visit?
Visits are arranged to suit both parties and are agreed by those involved. Normally it will be an hour or two per visit.
How do the Befriender and Befriendee pass the time they spend together?
Activities will have been broadly agreed at the first visit and may include going out for a snack, a social event, a cross-border/cultural event, or just chatting over a cup of tea in the Befriendees' home.
Are there any fees involved in joining the Border Counties Befriending Project?
There are no fees, but the person being visited is liable for the cost of their own social activities.
Are there any activities that a Volunteer cannot get involved in?
The Volunteer Befriender will visit in the role of a 'friend'. The Volunter is not a Counsellor, Dating Partner or Home Help/Carer and will not be in a position to undertake such roles.

On July 21, 2007 Mr. Benedict Onochie Amobi, Chargé d’Affaires of The Federal Republic of Nigeria Launched the Africa Caribbean Forum at the Ardboyne Hotel, Navan, County Meath.
The ACF is company limited by guarantee and is designed to support residents from Africa and the Caribbean as they seek to settle for a while or permanently in the Republic of Ireland. Through the ACF we hope to strengthen the links within the communities and act as a point of reference for the wider Irish society.
The vision of the ACF is to establish branches of the forum in all counties of Ireland. Already branches have been established in Meath and Cavan. We affirm the ideals of participation, recognition, inclusion, protection and provision as key programme pillars. The ACF is acting, collaborating, forging!
The ACF
ACTING, COLLABORATING, FORGING
In December 2007, one resident from the Caribbean and another from Africa met to talk about the situation in their respective communities here in Ireland. It was in that conversation that the idea of the Africa-Caribbean Forum was born. They were both aware of situations where people coming from Africa and the Caribbean went through unnecessary hardships before getting settled.
There was one case of a young woman from Jamaica, who came on an exchange programme, only to discover that the costs of living were way beyond what was anticipated. If it were it not for the assistance of other Jamaicans, who heard of her plight, she would have been made homeless after her money ran out. That network of proved much more important than the social service, which, in any case, does not operate after 5 and on weekends – the very times at which the needs are most acute. There was also the awareness that there were people coming from Africa who were the victims of racial attacks, arising out of fear, ignorance and negative stereotyping.
The question was whether there could be an organisation that would act as a beacon for migrants and one to which members of the broader Irish community could turn to form a better understanding of the cultural norms and values that our people hold, as these are important for self-understanding. It was against that background that the first conversation was held. The inaugural meeting of the Forum was held on December 11, 2006 and, as the saying goes, “the rest in history.”
Projects
Our first projects will include the establishment of a crèche for services at a price we can afford and a homework programme to assist our kids. We are seeking volunteers to offer help in both projects.

Monaghan Workshop, Monday 2 November 6 – 8pm
Youth Café, Castleblayney, Co. Monaghan (c/o Youth Work Ireland Monaghan).
About:
youth workers, youth leaders, peer educators and others working with young people, the
resource also asks what does justice mean “on the ground” in Ireland and then globally?
Why should young people act for a more just world? With big issues like Climate Change
and Economic Recession, should we take care of ourselves and ignore the rest. How do we
respond as active citizens in a world that seems to be increasingly unconcerned about the
countries and people that get left behind? How can we reach out and act for justice?
"Just Us or Justice" explores young people’s understanding of justice. Aimed at

1. Africa
a. Regions and Languages
Yoruba, Hausa, and Ibo are some of the nearly 400 native languages of Nigeria. Most people in the North African countries speak Arabic and follow Islam. In some parts of North Africa, however, people are multilingual and speak several languages. For example, the official languages of Chad and Djibouti are Arabic and French. In Ethiopia, people may speak one or more of 70 unique languages or 200 different dialects.
More than 1,000 different languages are spoken in Africa. Although most countries in Eastern and Southern Africa have adopted colonial European languages for official government business, most people speak indigenous native languages.
South Africa has 11 official languages
Other languages that are spoken by immigrants include:
· English
â– Arabic
· Afrikaans
â– Gujarati
· IsiZulu
â– Hindi
· IsiXhosa
â– Urdu
· IsiNdebele
â– Portuguese
· SePedi
â– French
· SeSotho
â– other North African languages
· SeTswana
â– Dutch
· SiSwati
· TshiVenda
· XiTsonga
Due to the multilingual nature of the country English is widely used as a common language. South Africa follows British English spelling rules.
Nine of the languages are of Bantu origin, of which Zulu is probably the best known internationally. Zulu's brand image is aided by its inclusion into the international phonetics alphabet just after Whisky. X-Ray and Yankee.
Nelson Mandela speaks Xhosa at home, which is another official language fairly similar to Zulu.
The Afrikaans language is descended from Dutch and low German, with influences from French, Bantu, English, Khoi, Malay and a variety of other languages. It has a very simple grammar and is relatively easy to learn to speak in a basic fashion.
There are a number of other languages which didn't make it as official languages, but are nonetheless recognised by the government. Sign language translation is provided on at least one TV news broadcast EVENING
Sudan is the largest country in Africa (8,3 % of the continent). Its boundaries touch those of Ethiopia, Eritrea, Tchad, Egypt, the Republic of Central Africa and Zaire, Uganda, Libya and Kenya; it is traversed by the Nile The White Nile (Bahr al- The Aabiadh) and the Blue Nile (Bahr al-Azraq). The confluence of the two Niles is at Khartoum. The North and East are deserts; the South has a luxurious vegetation characteristic of the equatorial climate. The central part is tropically continental with some rainfall which is very good for vegetation.
b. Nomads
· Are on Identity of communities in Africa mostly be found in East, West and North Africa
· Their culture is similar to the travelling Community
· They move from country to country or within a country, to sell their agricultural produce, herbal medicines and mineral resources.
· They are in Clans mostly known as Fulani, Hausa or Tuareg
· They are in Chad, Niger, Nigeria, Mauritania, Kenya, Mali, Conakry and Sierra Leone.
· They marry early, at age 15 and practice Poligamy
c. Legal Status in Ireland (Afro-Celts)
2. EDUCATION SYSTEMS IN WEST AFRICA
West Africa was colonized by Britain & France. Countries are either Anglo-phone or Franco-phone
Education systems are similar to that of Britain & France
Anglo-phone Primary education used to be seven years. Class 1 – 7.
A selective entrance examination was taken at class 7 for entrance to secondary school.
Secondary school used to be either 5 or 7 years. Form 1-5, lower 6th & upper 6th form. At form 5, GCSE O’Levels was taken & at upper form 6, GCSE A’Levels.
Entrance to university was either from 5th form (preliminary year in university) or from upper 6th form (first year in university). University is for 4 years for a normal degree, then 12-18 months for a Masters & 24-36 months for a Doctorate.
There are also institutes of education, teacher’s colleges & apprenticeships with mentoring.
Franco-phone education is based on the French system with a baccalaureate exam for entrance to university.
All schools in West Africa teach French, English, German & Latin. These are either compulsory or optional for students.
There are public & private schools as well as missionary schools.
Education standards are high in West Africa with medical & law schools.
Graduates find it easy to continue education in the West or take up skilled labour employment. West African educational certificates are accepted in the West as equivalents.
Anglo-phone educational systems have undergone changes. There is now the junior & senior schooling system like in Ireland.
Primary & secondary school students in public schools have to wear mandatory uniforms.
There aren’t enough bookshops & second-hand book sellers are in abundance.
The first academic university in the region was in Sierra Leone, Fourah Bay College.
The country in the region with the most schools & universities is Nigeria. This is a federal republic & has state & federal universities. Nigeria has the most interruptible schedule for 3rd level education as lecturers go on strikes often for salaries & students also, for better academic environments.
The examining body responsible for the region’s ordinary & advanced level exams is the West African Examination Council.
3. Religion
Most people in the fourteen independent countries in North Africa are Muslim. The religion they believe in is called Islam. Muslims pray to their god Allah and his prophet Muhammad five times a day facing the city of Mecca. A prophet is someone who is believed to speak for a god. The Koran is the Muslim holy book.
In African countries south of the Sahara Desert, people follow many different religions. Some are Muslim, although the majority of the people are Christian. Missionaries from Ireland and other parts of the world brought Christianity to many countries in Africa. Some people, however, choose to follow traditional religions and believe that natural spirits and ancestors affect everyday life

Muslims – All the same, exept the child is shaved on the 8th day before the child is named.

5. Social and Culture
SPORT
Africans are passionate about football. Afro-Caribbeans are passionate about athletics.West Africa is divided into zones for regional championship matches & for the Africa Cup.
ENTREPRENEURS
Most Africans depend on enterprise for an income. They carry out petty trading in household goods & food items. They also farm at subsistence levels. There are now developing, middle-sized enterprises in Information Technology, Cosmetics & Fashion Couture.
LEISURE/RECREATION
Africans & Afro-Caribbeans have informal ways for relaxation. Mostly after a hard day's work inn manual labour, they go to local pubs or form groups outside their homes on the streets. They like to drink Rum & Palm Wine. Guinness is also popular along with Heineken. They smoke cigarettes such as Rothmans, Marlborough & Dunhill. Youths frequent the many natural beaches at weekends. At Easter, the beaches are also popular & people go in family sizes to celebrate. Naming & Wedding ceremonies are a daily occurrence & this forms part of leisure.
LITERATURE ART & CRAFT
Artists are aplenty, working mostly in depicting family heads & heads of state. They produce portraits & illustrations for the media.
Craftsmanship is rife, depicting daily traditional modes of life. They6 use only wood for carving & most popular carvings are the mortar & pestle & statuettes. They also produce ornaments for home & individual decorations such as gourds & beads.
Literature is mainly the work of the Grit, who is responsible for recording translating & transmitting oral traditions. Writers rarely now use native dialects. Instead, to reach a wider audience, they now write in English or French. Poetry is as a sing-song, read or sung to encourage, admonish or caution within communities. African-Americans have further developed this style to what we now know as 'Rap'.
TABOOS
Dos & Don’ts exist for almost every aspect of life.
A youth cannot look the elder in the eye when that elder is addressing youth. This becomes a problem here when Africans don't maintain eye contact with service providers, who interpret this to be concealment.
One must not leave a slipper or shoe upturned in the house. This may bring about death in the family.
A woman must not open an umbrella over herself in the house. This may bring bad luck in not being 'seen' by men to marry.
One must not sweep or whistle at night in the house. This may drive away or attract spirits.
One must tweet after lightning strikes. This will divert the god of thunder from visiting the family with strikes of lightning.
INTEGRATION
Afro-Caribbeans come to Ireland as immigrants with different legal status.
Some are asylum seekers whose application for asylum. If successful, makes them refugees.
Some are migrant workers who have work visas mainly for the health care sector.
Some are students at 3rd level education who have come to pursue learning the Linguistics, Medicine & Development Aid.
Having resided here, immigrants have residency & after 5 years, can also naturalise.
Those who have unsuccessful asylum applications lose or are exploited in their employment finish studies without going back, for various reasons of political instability or social intolerance in their country of origin may have the legal status- Humanitarian leave to remain.

“I did not know where to turn to when I found out my son had a drug addiction. I felt helpless about my situation, I was unhappy, I cried alone, no-one understood and I was heartbroken when things went from bad to worse. A friend told me about Family Support and I went along with her to my first meeting. I have not looked back and look forward to Monday evenings.
I learnt that addiction is an illness, and that I was powerless over it; I learnt about the twelve step programme – a set of guidelines which can bring solution to practically any problem; I learnt how to mind myself and to stop trying to control my son’s behaviour. I was given information on where my son can go for treatment when he is ready. I went on a respite week to Kilkenny where I made new friends from all over the country, who are in similar situations. This would never have happened without me joining ANGELS Cavan Family Support. The Cavan group is fabulous, without the rest of the group, I would not be half the person I am today. I would urge parents of users to join Family Support, as support for yourself can help the whole family. “

ANGELS CAVAN FAMILY SUPPORT GROUP
Family Support is where family members of those using drugs/alcohol can come together to talk about how they have been affected.
Wed, 26 Aug 09
ANGELS CAVAN FAMILY SUPPORT GROUP
A Family Support Group is a safe, confidential and non-judgmental place for the family members of drug/alcohol users to come together to discuss common issues in relation to dealing with drug/alcohol use within their family.
Wed, 26 Aug 09
ANGELS CAVAN FAMILY SUPPORT GROUP
Most families dealing with drug/alcohol use are looking for answers. The answers they look for initially relate to their child - where can she/he go for treatment? In most cases family members don't realise that they need help for themselves.
The group can support members through difficult times sometimes just by listening, other times by sharing how they dealt with similar situations.

ANGELS CAVAN FAMILY SUPPORT GROUP
We have learned that addiction is an illness, not a moral issue. It is a two-fold disease: a physical allergy coupled with an obsession of the mind. It can be arrested, but never cured.
When we fully understand and accept that addiction is a disease, that it is both mental and physical, and that we are powerless over it; we become ready to learn a better way to live.
The Family Support Group is primarily for you who know or have known a feeling of desperation concerning the addiction problem of someone very near to you. We have travelled that unhappy road too, and found the answer with serenity and peace of mind.
Keep an open mind and attend as many meetings as possible. Feel free to ask questions and to enter into the dicussions. You will soon make new friends and will feel very much a part of the group.

I am a drug user. I need help.
Don't solve my problems for me. This only makes me lose respect for you.
Don't lecture, moralise, scold, blame, or argue, whether I'm loaded or sober. It may make you feel better, but it will make the situation worse.
Don't accept my promises. The nature of my illness prevents me keeping them, even though I mean them at the time. Promises are only my way of postponing pain. Don't keep switching agreements; if an agreement is made, stick to it.
Don't lose your temper with me. It will destroy you and any possibility of helping me.
Don't allow your anxiety for me make you do what I should do for myself.
Don't cover for me or try to spare me the consequences of my using. It may reduce the crisis, but it will make my illness worse.
Above all, don't run away from reality as I do. Drug dependence, my illness, gets worse as my using continues. Start now to learn, to understand, to plan for recovery. Find what groups exist to help families of drug abusers.
I need help - from a doctor, a psychologist, a counsellor, from a recovering addict who found recovery through Family Support, and from God.
