The Options

...Back. Mom called to do something. Anyway, hopefully (again), I'll get to talk to Katie tonight. First thing, after talking about her day, is to ask her to stop her drug use. Atleast to try to stop. At the least, the very least, to stop doing coke. I'll have to work on pot and alcohol after she quits coke. Maybe, just maybe, since no one down there in Pensaola will help her, she'll change her mind, or I'll convince her, to come up here to me and my family. Oh, just the thought of that makes me happier. If she tells me she can't stop because of depression (bipoloar in her case), then I will let her know she is not alone. I am exactly the same. I'll help her stop no matter what it takes.

But being 1,000 miles apart certainly doesn't help! Still, I can give it my all. Anything for my angel. Lots of people are affected by depression, and just me being one of those people alongside with her will help that much more. There're other things than drugs, illegal ones, to help with depression. If her doctor won't give any meds, and her grandparents (whom are coming home today, by the way) or dad won't take her, I'm afraid our options will seriously decrease. Here are what I've thought if this happens:
>She moves in with me. (requires emancipation)
>She gets a new boyfriend who can help better.
>She finds her own wayst to stop and treat her depression.
>She emancipate's herself and moves in w/ a foster family.
>Possibly stop being friends with drug-users.
>I help her
>She stops because I ask it of her if she loves me.

That's all I can think of right now. But what else could there be? I'll make a list stuff to do to get this going.

>Check what the emancipation age is for Pensacola, Fl or Excambia County, Fl.
>Talk to Katie about all this.
>Check out each of the following:

>Maybe talk to mom about it all.

Hopefully this all will help. I certainly hope so. Even just a little. I'll pray to God about it every night until Katie is happy. Fill you in later.
