The Reiki Cafe 

My daughter is planning to move to North carolina with her two children. The children's father(they were not married) told my daughter he will block anything that poses to improve her life and she better get a lawyer. It isn't even about the children. It is scary to think this man, an alcoholic, will block my daughter from geting away from him at any cost. It is also sad that it isn't the children he is concerned about.

I will send loving thoughts and kindness to the situation.

Alcoholics are very difficult to deal with.. Unfortunately they are helpless in their disease and come out swinging at anything they can... usually at the ones they love. It sounds like it might be a good idea for your daughter to remove herself until clear minds and hearts can prevail.

If she needs someone to talk to please email me I have gone through something similar to this. I stayed a little to long.

Blessings and REIKI love to you, your family and the situation.

Hi pamster!
I'm sorry to hear about your daughter's situation. I've had my fair share of emotionaly challenged, addiction riddled, selfish men. Your daughter should definitely retain a lawyer, and if possible record any phone conversations with her ex. It will make it easyer to get a restraining order with that kind of evidence, if it comes to that. He sounds like the proverbial drowning man; any chance to take someone down with them. Especially if at one point they hoped the other person could save them from themselves. YOur daughter should work on cutting the astral chords he's hooked into her.
I would highly recomend to both you and your daughter to ask Archangel Michael for protection and assistance. Be specific in your request. Ask that what ever unhealthy, or damaging ties be severed, and that a protective white light surround and prevent any new attachments.
Your daughter (and you, perhaps) may want to ask for help in forgiving and releasing this man from your lives. By forgiveness I don't mean you say "gee, I forgive you, it's ok what you've done". Because it's not ok. When you can accept that this is the situation and not hold it against the person, it makes it much easyer to move on and release those hooks. In your prayers, send blessings to him, and let him know (mentaly) that you are letting him go, and letting the Universe do the rest.
I have recently been drawn to angels and have had remarkable results in working with them. I myself will request for your daughter's and her childrens' protection.

Here is a simple prayer any one can use:
Lord Michael before me, Lord michael behind,
Lord Michael to my left, Lord Michael to my right,
Lord Michael above me, at my center, and below,
Lord Micaheal, Lord Michael, where ever I go
I AM his Love protecting here! I AM his Love protecting here!
Amen

I hope this helps!

Namaste

Hi Pamster
Everything that starfire says, and then some! Like a lot of people I have had to deal with the circumstances of this terrible illness. I am only saying this to show that she can get away, even though she will be feeling trapped and scared at the moment.
Detachment with love is a strong mantra. On a more grounded level, has she tried Al-Anon? This is a group for the Families and friends of the alcoholic. She will get so much support and love from this group. I hope she can find details of her local group in the phone book or off the net.
Astral chords are such a strong bond to the other person. My therapist helped me deal with this by calling in the angels, including Michael and Gabriel. The chord was huge!
One problem she may be experiencing is that she still loves him on some level. This can cause so much turmoil. Tell your daughter she is free to email me any time.
I will send Reiki to your daughter, her children and wonder if a request to help her husband would be appropriate? (He is ill, but you may feel too angry towards him to contemplate that xx)
love and light
