My best friend just got out of prison. We were kids together, grew up together, and we just kind of went separate ways a few years ago. I took the straight and narrow path. She became a stripper, got hooked on drugs, and then landed in prison for abandoning her 6 week old son in a car after it went in a ditch in a snowstorm.
I know she has problems. I have tried to help her so many times, but it does no good. I have not seen her for 2 yrs now, since shortly before she went to prison. The thing with her son made me decide to cut ties.
Anyway, I do miss her. Would it be a bad idea to try to track her down?
Is it possible that she may have learned something in the past few years, or am I just being too optimistic?
I know she is a good person inside, and she is one of the only people I have ever felt really close to. I miss her.
Should I try to contact her?
Her son is okay, by the way. He lives with her mother. I do visit her frequently, as my son is only 1 month older than him.
My friend does not have contact with her mother or son however, due to a court order. Her mom has no idea how she is.
Her son is gorgeous though, and he was not injured. Although the car he was in was not running, a state trooper found him less than 15 minutes after he was left… Mom did not attempt to find him until 3 days later, although it is believed she was so drugged that she forgot he was there…
