Deidre just got home about 15 minutes ago. My daughter is 18. When she turned 18 she received $200 of my gwl insurance cheque. In a way I do not mind as it is spending money that is provided and I do not have to take it from my already tight budget. Sometimes I ask myself whether she is merely having fun as a youth or is she devveloping into an alcoholic? I hope that her priorities will move in a safer direction as her dad is a non recovering alcoholic. She is very concerned about her dad whose hep c has gotten much worse and he waited until just now to push for treatment. So much damage has been done-who knows. The dr. in Nova scotia could very well think of him as a non- compliant patient. He wants Dee to go there in July and basically look after him. I recommended that Dee spend a small vacation time with him and then return here. It is way too much responsibility for her and very traumatizing and depressing and her dad is quite difficult to be around. On the good side he did apologize to me for spreading the hep c to me very likely through the shared use of a razor.
