Hi I’m sorry to hear what you are going through and I suppose I am one step behind you. I can relate this as I am concerned about my sister. I’ve discovered she has been using drugs and has a little tot with medical needs. They are under the radar of social services too but I’m not closley involved so I don’t know what they are doing and they definitely don’t know about it. Having already lost a parent to an accidental overdose following a long battle with drug addiction, I am sick to find my sister doing this and find myself in the same position or worse now there is a child. Fortunately Dad is now looking after both of them (parents were not together before) but he has a lot of issues to deal with too and he’s finding it all very overwhelming. I’m doing what I can to support him. There is a drug debt to a dealer and an ex partner threatening to blow the lid out so he has one over her. I am scared and confused about what to do. The truth of her situation tells me she is a ticking time bomb. How did you end up looking after your niece?
