My BIL called me yesterday asking me to be a part of an intervention for my sister who has been to rehab 3 times. This would be her 4th time. I have not ever been involved in any type of intervention before. She has two kids aged 12&14 and she drinks excessively daily and has apparently driven with them in the car on multiple occasions according to what I’ve been told. She has a weed vape and has apparently developed a relationship with another guy while in her last rehab I think from last June.

Anyway I really don’t have a relationship with my sister. I stopped trying entirely 6 months ago due to her behavior and she would reject all invitations to get together and I honestly barely know her. I want to make an impactful statement at this rehab but feel almost out of place in doing so because I don’t really know what to say beyond my own emotions or feeling like I’m being accusatory?

I’ve written a draft and trying to use AI (sorry) to censor me or help me formulate how to correctly address someone in an intervention. But that’s why I’m here because I don’t want to use AI I want some real human guidance on what would work. I can attach my draft if it would be helpful.

I guess what I’m asking is what is my role here in this intervention? I’m almost an estranged sister. But I’m here and happy to help in anyway that I can if I can make any small difference, I’ll certainly try.

Please show me some grace it’s been a really difficult period of time for the family in general and we are all hurting.
