Hi, I go by Angel of Love

Bless you all for all the good you are doing and comfort you bring to

so many people.

I am a new member but have so much to learn yet. It has been a slow

journey.

Please help me concentrate my energy to help my mum and sister

Raquel who live in Portugal. My prayer is not enough!

I am portuguese but I live in the UK.

My brother Filipe who also lives with my mum (57 years old) and sis

(20 years old) has been a heroin addict for 20 years (he is currently

33 years old).

My mum has tried everything to help him and nothing has worked. Over

the last 2 years Filipe has become violent towards my mum and sisters

like my father would to be. I am lucky the one who got away. My mum

separated from my dad 18 years ago for being always drunk, violent

and skizo. My mum did her best at coping with 3 children on her own,

so much on her plate and alway putting others first.

My brother with his addiction got worse with violence at home,

stealing money from them, threats to get his way, breaking everything

in the house. My money nearly lost the house once as she acted as

his guarantor. At the time I managed to get a loan to pay bayliffs.

On his worse attack on Tuesday morning, Filipe broke every ornament

in the house just because Raquel would not give him her car keys to

get more drugs even after my mum gave him her food and gas bill money.

Punched my mum and sister to the ground. Raquel run outside half

naked to call for help and Filipe was arrested.

Within a couple of hours he was released after convincing Police and

Phycologist he was " sane and calm " .

Of course he came back home even more angry and violent, broke doors,

the dinning table. One of the police officers that came to warn my

mum he was coming back arrived later and still saw him kicking things

about. Filipe was arrested again and held in custody for 3 days,

being released tomorrow.

As you can imagine my mum and sis are scared. Raquel gave my mum

ultimatum that she will walk out tomorrow rather than have him in the

house. If you cannot feel safe in your own home, where can you be?

My mum tried to find out about getting him in a permanent clinic

where they can look after him, stop him from hurting himself and

others but the system/law does not allow straight away if ever

possible. My mum cannot shut the door on him because he is her son,

she could never forgive herself if something happened to him.

She is broken hearted that Raquel will leave. I am not there to even

give her a cuddle.

Please pray with me that when he returns tomorrow, he is calm. I

have advised my sister to stay with an aunt for a couple of weeks

until my mum is able to secure a place for him in a clinic.

Please send your positive energy that a place is found for Filipe so

that my mum and sister can lead a normal life.

Thank you for reading

Peace and love to all

Angel of Love
