"She called and said she felt upended and could she come
Her faith is shaken
She knows I will listen and with me it is black and white ..no gray.
I think she wants someone to tell her she need to shake those leeches off and put herself first.
She has always been the rock supporting everyone $$ wise and emotionally. Even her parents. She doesn't have anything left to give.
She can come and rest up because if and when she cuts that bunch loose...there is gonna be some howling and pushback like nobody's ever seen."

She knows she is part of the problem. No one can take advantage of some one like that without their permission. To get them to let go, she has to let go of them first. That will be so very hard for her. I'll be praying for her. I think that will be harder than the MS.
Maybe, just maybe, you can help her work out a strategy she can live with as she works through this transition. It's a big one.
