In a nut shell:
One of my younger brothers is battling substance abuse and it's harming everyone, especially our mother. Also, my youngest brother and sister are being abused by their father and my mother is fighting for custody... this among other problems...The situations are out of control and I'm afraid my family will fall apart. We're doing all we can actively but I will take all the spiritual support we can get.
Thank you for your time and concern.
