New Story for Sue Ellen and JR, this is a topic on Dallas that bothered me. I saw first hand what alcohol does to people, my Father died from his drinking problem. I hated seeing Sue Ellen destroy herself, but I always thought JR was partially to blame, for her drinking problem.
Chapter 1
Sue Ellen had a couple of drinks in the afternoon, she needed to settle her nerves. She couldn't stand being lonely anymore, she needed to get help, but she wasn't willing to accept help from anyone. Jock, Miss Ellie, Pam and Bobby saw the signs, but they didn't want to get involved in JR's and Sue Ellen's affairs. She was laying down, when JR came home.
"Sue Ellen it is 5 o'clock why are you still sleeping"?
" I have a headache, I don't want to go to supper JR".
"Your going, Daddy just said he expects us both downstairs".
"JR why are you so afraid of your Daddy, I'm not going"?
JR grabbed Sue Ellen, " You have been drinking, I can smell it on your breath. Get in there take a shower, change, we are going to dinner".
"No".
JR grabbed her dragging her into the bathroom, turning on the shower. " Take your clothes, off get in, or I will put you in fully dressed". Sue Ellen took off her clothes, and got in showering . She started to cry, she hated how JR treated her. She got out brushed her teeth, and she looked in the mirror, touching her face. She had dark circles under her eyes. She looked so pale, she didn't recognize the person staring back at her. She held on to the sink, she actually felt sick to her stomach. She wanted another drink, but JR being here she couldn't. She just have to get through dinner, and JR would leave like he did every night. She walked into the bedroom, going into the closet , and changing. She walked out, "I'm ready JR". They walked downstairs, everyone could see Sue Ellen didn't look good, she was so pale, and tired looking. Jock walked over, " Sue Ellen are you ok"?
"Yes Jock, just tired, my stomach hurts".
Lucy laughs, " Have another drink Sue Ellen".
'Why are you such a spoiled brat Lucy, I can't stand you sometimes"?
Jock, Ellie and everyone was shocked, Lucy smiled, " I'm sorry I offended you Sue Ellen"
"Your not sorry for anything, excuse me I lost my appetite". Sue Ellen walked upstairs, and everyone looked at Lucy.
" Sorry, but she drinks you all know it. She is making herself sick, don't you people care"?
JR smiled, "she has a drink once in awhile mind your own business"?
"JR it isn't once in awhile, do something to help her".
Teresa walked in, "Supper is ready", Everyone walked in, and ate, they all were upset, but they dropped the subject of Sue Ellen. Lucy finished first, " may I be excuse, I have homework to do"
" Yes, but do homework, no TV", Jock says
" Fine", she runs upstairs, but decided to go to Sue Ellen's room. She knocked on the door, but Sue Ellen didn't answer.Lucy opened the door, walking into the room. She didn't see her, she looked in the bathroom, she wasn't there. She noticed her sitting on the lounge chair, on the balcony. Lucy walked out, Sue Ellen was staring into space, with a vodka bottle beside her and a glass in her hand. Lucy walked over, " Sue Ellen I'm so sorry, for hurting your feelings, but why are you drinking alone"?
"Lucy go away, I'm so tired of everything".
"Give me the glass, don't do this JR isn't worth hurting yourself over"
Lucy went to take the glass, and she screamed, " don't you dare, this is the only thing that gets me through the day. I'm so lonely , I have no one". Sue Ellen was crying, Lucy sat down, she was so upset, she reached out holding Sue Ellen's hand. Sue Ellen looked at Lucy ," please don't tell them, you found me drinking, I will stop promise"
"Sue Ellen you need help, this is not helping you".
Sue Ellen shut her eyes, and Lucy could see she was falling asleep. She took the glass out of her hand, and put it on the table. She walked into the bedroom, grabbing a blanket laying it over her. She touched Sue Ellen's face, "I'm sorry, I have to tell someone".

Thank you Sanda, we did everything to help him, but they have to help themselves. It was hard to see someone you love destroy themselves, and the family that love them. He died on Christmas Day, 5years ago, alone, we didn't get to him in time. My Mom and him were separated, so we always will remember, he died, before we could say we loved him. I'm dedicating this story to him, and anyone else that is suffering from this horrible disease. I also dedicate it to any family that is trying to help their loved one, get better. Chapter 2 Lucy knocked on Pam's door, she opened it, and smiled, "Lucy is something wrong, I thought you were doing your homework"? "Is Bobby in there or are you alone"? " Bobby is with your Granddaddy, JR took off, Lucy your upset tell me what is wrong"? "Please come to Sue Ellen's room, she needs help Pam". Lucy rushed with Lucy, and she ran out to the balcony. Sue Ellen was out cold, Pam picked up the bottle. "She drank this all by herself, OMG". "Pam JR doesn't care, if someone doesn't help her, she will kill herself". " I don't know what to do Lucy"? ' Pam, I have been sitting here for 1 hour, I have a idea". "What Lucy"? "You know the family cottage, that we never go to"? "Yes Lucy, you think we should take her there"? "Yes, the two of us, no alcohol, get it out of her system"? "She won't go for that"? "She does, or we tell Grandpa, and he will make her do it in the hospital" Pam smiled, " you realize this won't be fun, it might get really bad". Lucy ran into Pam's arms, she was crying, " I want to help her, I feel so bad for her". Pam hugged her, she was never so proud of Lucy, as she was at this moment. She touched Lucy's face, " go pack, we have to do it now, I will wake her". "Ok Pam you are the greatest". Pam smiled, she ran to her room first. She packed a bag for a few days, and put it on the bed. She walked over pulling Sue Ellen's bag out of the closet. She put stuff, she thought she needed in it . She walked over, to Sue Ellen kneeling down. "Sue Ellen wake up Sweetie". Sue Ellen jumped, " What time is it, is something wrong"? "Yes, you need help, me and Lucy are going to help you". Sue Ellen jumped up, looking at the empty bottle. Her head was spinning, she wanted to be alone. She turned, "get out of my room, I don't want yours and Lucy's help". "You are going to do what we say, or we get Miss Ellie and Jock involved". "Oh your threatening me, nice Pam". "You are a alcoholic , and you need help, so your going away for a few days with us". "You, Lucy and Me, are you kidding"? "No, the cabin, no alcohol, you are going to get clean and sober fast". Sue Ellen looked at the bag, " hell no that isn't happening" Lucy walked in, "yes it is, I told Grandma, that we are leaving, she thinks it is a wonderful idea. She doesn't know why, she thinks we just want to bond? You make the choice, go get help with strangers or me and Pam"? "JR won't go for this" " Grandma said she will talk to JR, she said we can leave anytime." Pam smiled, " I have to talk to Bobby, than we are leaving, your coming with me Sue Ellen, your not hiding a bottle in the bags". " I hate you both", Sue Ellen sat on the bed". Lucy smiled, "go Pam hurry, I will watch her, until you come back". Sue Ellen glared at Lucy, who walked over, " this is for your own good, hate me all you want". Sue Ellen sat she wouldn't look at Lucy. Pam went to Bobby, and explained, that she was going away with Lucy and Sue Ellen for a few days. Sue Ellen needed friends, and Bobby thought it might be a good idea. Pam walked upstairs, " are we leaving, or what Sue Ellen"? Sue Ellen grabbed her bag, "you both will hate being with me, I will make sure of it". She walked out, and Pam and Lucy smiled, " this is going to be fun". They followed her downstairs, she walked to the car, throwing her bag in the trunk, getting in the back seat. Pam and Lucy got in the front, and they started to drive, and Sue Ellen stared out the back window.

Chapter 3
Pam and Lucy get Sue Ellen to the cabin, and they take their things inside. Sue Ellen was so angry, they knew they were going to have a rough time. Sue Ellen sat on the couch, while they brought in the supplies. Lucy walked over, " Sue Ellen do you want to see your room"?
"No", She curled up on the couch, she was really feeling the withdrawal already only 3 hours from her last drink. Pam walked over touched her forehead, "you are burning up, I will get you some water"
"Don't bother, I will get it myself, if I want water. Give me some vodka, if you want to be kind".
"We don't have any liquor Sue Ellen, please you need to stop"
"Shut up both of you, like you care about me, you never cared". Sue Ellen ran upstairs, and Lucy and Pam looked at each other. Lucy says, " There isn't any alcohol here, do you think"?
"No, but lets check her room anyway", They grab her bag, and run upstairs, she was sitting on a bed. She was rocking back and forth, Pam walked over. "Here is your stuff Sue Ellen, we care why do you think we are here"?
"I don't know, tell me why we are here"?
"To help you", Lucy yells
Sue Ellen started to cry, " I can't stop shaking, I need something, just a small drink please".
"No, we are getting this crap out of your system. Maybe a nice warm bath will be good for the shakes".
"Maybe a nice warm bath would be good to kill myself, being stuck with you two morons".
Lucy started to laugh, "Oh you can do better than that Sue Ellen, you really hate us right now".
"Yes, I hate you, both of you, I hate all the Ewing's but John Ross".
"Really you love him, why bother you are drunk most of the time"?
"Be married to JR, and see if you wouldn't be Pam".
"Oh blame JR, he is a jerk, but you allow it".
"Shut up, your driving me crazy, get out of my room".
"No, choose which one is staying with you first? The other will go down, and make you some soup"
"Soup, I don't want soup, I don't want anything"
"Fine, who do you want in the room with you first"?
"Oh my choices , the spoiled brat, or the I'm so good look at me Pam".
Pam started to laugh, " Sue Ellen you are making this so hard, please just relax , and enjoy yourself".
"Pam I would rather spend the night with a bear, than either of you".
"Fine, Lucy I will take the first shift, you go rest and I will wake you in a few hours".
"Shift you got to be kidding, your going to watch me all night. Will you watch me go to the bathroom too"?
"yes pretty much", Lucy smiled , "I will make soup, you have to eat Sue Ellen". She left, and Sue Ellen sat on the bed. Pam brought her bag over, and Sue Ellen threw it across the room. "Fine when you want something , it is over there".
Sue Ellen sat on the bed, and Pam sat in the chair. Sue Ellen was really hurting, and Pam felt for her, but she had to be strong. Sue Ellen got up running to the bathroom, she got sick, and Pam ran in. Sue Ellen got sick several times, she barely could get off the floor. Pam realized she was worse than she thought. She walked over to help Sue Ellen, but she screamed, "leave me alone". Pam stood back, Sue Ellen barely could get off the floor. She walked to the sink, holding on, washing her face with cold water. She walked back to bed, and laid down, she was shaking so bad. Pam walked over sitting beside her, Sue Ellen was crying, "It hurts real bad Pam".
" I know Sue Ellen, you have to detox".
"Help me please", Sue Ellen shut her eyes, and Pam was devastated, but all she could do was watch Sue Ellen suffer, and pray her and Lucy didn't make a mistake bringing her here.

Chapter 4
Lucy came up to tell them she made some soup. Pam smiled, "I don't know if she will keep it down? Lucy it is worse than what we though, she is really feeling the withdrawal". Lucy walked over Sue Ellen had fallen asleep. She was really pale. Pam smiled, " Lucy you eat, I can't leave her".
" I will bring it up, wait here", She left and Pam sat in the chair. Sue Ellen sat up, "Pam I want to go home now"
"No Sue Ellen you need this, the stuff is killing you. I know you only drink because your lonely"
"Stop Pam, I can't take this, please". Sue Ellen's hands were shaking, Pam wrapped the blanket around her. "It will get better, just lay back, and try and rest". Lucy walked in, " Oh Sue Ellen your awake, I made soup, do you want some"?.
"No, please you both are driving me crazy". Sue Ellen laid back she started to cry. Lucy put the tray down, and Pam shook her head. Sue Ellen cried herself to sleep, Pam felt horrible. She walked over, and her and Lucy had their soup. "Lucy maybe it was a bad idea to bring her here, do you see her shaking? What if something goes wrong, we are not Doctors".?
" Pam she is killing herself, do you think JR would help her"?
"I don't know if he even realized how bad she was"?
"Pam please lets try to help her, I think we can". Pam touched Lucy's hand, "you really care don't you"?
"Yes, I just hate seeing her harming herself. JR doesn't help her, really none of us have. She doesn't have a Mother to go to. She kind of reminds me of me, we are both all alone in the world".
" Lucy you have your Grandparents, and the family".
"I want my Parents, they just walked away, they didn't fight for me".
'You don't know, maybe they weren't ready to be Parents Lucy".
"JR took me from my Mom, and my Dad let him".
"Shh I didn't realize you felt this way Lucy".
"I hold it in, sometimes I want to pick up a bottle too Pam. I understand what she is going through. She knows JR is cheating, she loves that man, how can he hurt her like that? She is beautiful, smart, and she would do anything for him. He will be sorry one day, but you know what he would deserve it Pam".
Sue Ellen cried out, and Lucy and Pam ran over to her. She was shaking so bad, they grabbed more blankets. She whispered, " Am I going to die"?
"No Sue Ellen, it is the bad stuff coming out of your body". Pam ran in filling up the tub with warm water. She ran back helping her up, and she walked to the bathroom. She didn't fight them she was weak. Lucy and Pam helped her undress, she got in the tub, and sat down. She was crying, but her shaking got better. She whispered, " why are you both doing this for me, you never liked me"?
"We do Sue Ellen, you just push everyone away". Pam says. Lucy knelt down, "maybe after the bath, I can warm up some soup for you? You need some strength, you are really weak".
"I would like a tea Lucy".
"Ok a Tea is great", she walked out, and Pam sat on the side of the tub. "Sue Ellen do this for you, and John Ross please".
"John Ross he is the only good thing in my life".
"Yes he is fight for him Sweetie, he loves his Ma Ma".
"He does love me , if he only knew".
Pam smiled, " Hey we all made mistakes in our life Sue Ellen, don't look back on yours".
"Pam my marriage is over isn't it"?
" Do you want it to be over Sue Ellen"?
"No, I love JR , but he doesn't love me".
"Tell him how you feel, give him a choice, you or his other women? You have to walk away if he doesn't choose you"
"I'm not strong enough to walk away Pam".
"Shh don't think of that now, think about getting healthy. Please don't fight me and Lucy, we want to help you".
Sue Ellen tried to smiled, "I'm sorry for being so rude before, but you made me angry".
"Don't worry about that, but how about getting out of that tub, and having your warm tea"?
"I would like that", She got out, and put on a nightgown. She walked out, and Lucy brought her tea. She sat on the couch, and was drinking it. She was shaking still but it was not as bad. She wiped the tears from her eyes, as Lucy and Pam sat down, beside her.

Chapter 4
It was a long night Sue Ellen was in really bad shape. She would sleep for 1/2hour , than be up being sick. Pam took her turn, and Lucy was taking her turn to stay with her . It was 7 am when Pam walked into the room, and screamed, "Lucy you fell asleep, where is she"? Lucy jumped up, they checked everywhere they were frantic. They ran downstairs, and Lucy was crying. "OMG how stupid, I fell asleep, I'm so sorry Pam".
They ran outside, and were so thankful the car, was still there. They turn, and see Sue Ellen curled up, on the porch swing, she had fallen asleep. They walk over, and touch her, and she jumped.
"OMG Sue Ellen we almost had a heart attack, you scared us"
"I'm sorry, I couldn't sleep, I needed air".
" Next time wake one of us up, Lucy was suppose to be awake".
"I don't want you guys babysitting me, but my stomach is really hurting".
"It is the withdrawal, It will get better , but you should eat something"
"I can't it will came back out, I don't remember ever getting this sick. My Mom would be disgusted with me, she think it is the most disgusting thing to do". Lucy laughed, "Well if she was my Mom, I would have been sick everyday". Pam grabbed Lucy, "Was that nice, say sorry to Sue Ellen, that is her Mother".
' No Pam it is ok, I was pretty sick most of the time growing up. Maybe it was my Mom", Sue Ellen smiled
"Why don't you come in, we will give you tea, and toast? Then after we can go for a nice walk the three of us. Maybe we can swim down by the lake, it is so beautiful right now".
"Guy's maybe we should go home, I know you have things to do, besides babysit me"
"No, a few days up here, just the three of us, will do us good. Sue Ellen, you still are going through the withdrawal, and you will get the craving again but you have to stop drinking".
" I don't know if I can, it is the only thing that gets me through the day"?
"It does not, you are out of it most of the time".
"Yeah Pam, but being lonely and knowing what JR is doing, being out of it is actually a good thing".
"What about John Ross, what if he needs his Ma Ma"?
" I'm normally fine, until he goes to bed". Lucy laughs, "You know that is not true, Grandma and Grandpa watch John Ross while your up in your room. You are not telling the truth, and that isn't helping you Sue Ellen".
"Fine, I'm a alcoholic, are you happy now"?
'Yes actually that is the first step to recovery"
'Why are you both doing this really"?
" We care, and actually it was Lucy, she wanted to help you because she felt bad".
"I feel partially to blame Sue Ellen, I have treated you bad for years. I hated you , because of JR, that wasn't fair".
" You have treated me bad Lucy, but it became normal, so you being nice, is scaring me". Pam laughed, "OMG Sue Ellen, will you come in, and eat something for us"?
' Yeah but if I get sick, it is your fault".
" Ok deal", Sue Ellen went to get up, but she was dizzy. She started to cry, " I can't take this, I feel awful, like my insides are burning up".
"Your stomach"?
"Yeah , I feel like my whole body is shaking, it hurts real bad". They take her hand , and bring her in. She sat, at the table while Pam was making tea, and Lucy breakfast. Lucy grabbed Sue Ellen, a orange juice, she went to take a sip, but she was shaking so bad, it spilled down her. She threw the glass, and was crying. Pam walked over, " It is ok Sue Ellen, this is what happens". Pam helped her clean up, and Lucy got her another drink. They brought the food to the table, and they were eating. Sue Ellen was quiet, not touching the food at first. She picked up her tea, but she was shaking so bad, Lucy got up, "let me help you". She whispered, "no let me do it, I deserve this". She was crying, and Pam and Lucy ate, trying to act normal, but they felt horrible she was going through this. They tried not to look at her when she picked up , the toast, but seeing her shaking so badly , was really upsetting Lucy. Sue Ellen took a bite of her toast putting it down. She smiled, " I think I should lay down, I don't feel good".
"Let me help you", Pam said
"No, you eat, I want to do it", Pam sat down, and Sue Ellen walked real slow, to the stairs. She walked up, struggling with each step, her body was really weak. Lucy was afraid she would fall back, but they stayed at the table. She got upstairs. and Lucy broke down, she couldn't stop crying. Pam held her shoulder, "you were so brave wanting to help her, don't break down now".
"Did you see her, she is suffering".?
"It is killing me too, but we have to be brave".
"OK", Lucy says, and they both sat, eating their toast.
Sue Ellen got in bed, she couldn't stop shaking, it was getting worse not better. She was crying, she was hurting so bad, she shut her eyes. She wanted the pain to go away, she wanted to think, about something nice. She dreamed of the day she first met, JR.
