Q: i'm trying to support a friend who is in jail for drug use. she's going to be doing a rehab program for the next 18 months or so....her family is done with supporting her as she has many offenses and hasn't been able to turn her life around. i'm just trying to be a point of contact. what i'm wondering is, should tell her about happy things in my life? just day to day grind stuff? i feel like maybe that will make it worse for her....but maybe just having something else to think about is enough? i'm sending letters through this inmate aid website and i'm not sure if she's able to respond. i just keep sending letters. i just want her to have some sort of normal human contact. any guidance would be great.
