My sister is on Crack. There is no other explanation.

Here are some facts:

1. My sister has had multiple organ transplants and is on LOTS of drugs to keep her body from rejecting her latest organ.

2. My sister has had a stroke – a very bad one in the past. She was 20. It was unexpected and is still unexplained.

3. My sister has high blood pressure. Blood pressure that the doctors are unable to control with medications, she must monitor her BP six times daily and report to her doctors with the numbers to see if she needs to increase or decrease her daily medications.

4. My sister has a habit of finding losers on the internet to date. Her first internet BF came from over seas. He repeatedly beat and raped her, yet she dated him for three years.

5. She recently – within the last six weeks – dumped her last internet loser after finding out he has been cheating on her.

And the worst part?

6. She found a new internet loser. He lives in Texas. Sometime between January and March, my sister plans on flying down to Texas to meet him.

Do I have to go any further?

On the plus side, here are some of the reasons she may not be able to go.

1. The travel insurance she wants to get, blue cross, will deny her.

2. Due to all the pre-existing medical condition she has, most other travel insurance people will deny her as well.
**she may then, in all her wisdom, decided to go without travel insurance**

3. My sister is on welfare. Don’t judge, its disability welfare, she is honestly unable to work. After rent, she has almost 300 a month – to be spent on bills, food, personal items etc. It is unlikely that she will raise the funds in time.
**unless she decided to do us all proud and get back into dealing drugs**

I am absolutely terrified that she will be able to board the plane. If she does get to Texas, the likely hood that she will phone my father crying in the middle of the night needing money to fly home is 100%.

My dad cannot afford that. Not the money, and not the emotional stress this will cause.

Days like this, I really understand how a person can hate their sibling. For once in her life, I would really love for her to THINK THINGS THROUGH!
