meth and being a mom

I started using Meth when I was 16 after my grandmother died someone told me it would make me not feel the pain of missing her. So I tried it, it was my everything. I went on to be a mother of two girls still using meth. I gave up vacations, marriage, and finally almost my life for meth. At 36, I finally got to go out of the state for a vacation and I had to have the meth with me. We went to Nevada to gamble. I gambled and almost lost my leg. I have been clean for 5 and 1/2 years. Finally after giving up nearly everything I found soberiety and a life that is truly blessed. I have a 21 year old and a 15 year old who both know where I have been and what it has done. They both have said NO and that is the best part of my story.
