I am so relieved that you are back home with Jeffy. Your daughter can fend for herself but Jeffy can't. I wonder if one of the workers from an abused womens shelter might be able to give you some advice so that you can get through to her. Or maybe they can talk to her. Sort of an intervention type thing.
Your neice is a good woman Lori. She kept you from getting arrested. Yeah I probably would have kicked the crap out of that loser.
