Counting my Blessings

So this weekend had to of been one of the worst weekends I've had to dealt with in a very long, long, LONG time. As I'm sitting here trying to figure out what to say without saying something wrong, or coming out in a awful way, I have no idea how to explain on what I've been going threw...In a very long story short, I have been in a relationship with the most amazing man I have ever met. He is the most generous, kind, would take his shirt off his back for someone less fortunate kind of guy. He never asked questions if he was asked to do something. He just did it. He has the kindest soul and literally a heart of gold. I still ask myself on how I'm so lucky to have this wonderful man in my life. He comes from a very dis-functional family. He co-signed a car for his brother and they had a HUGE fall out and he brother didn't want to be responsible anymore for the car payments and he let the car go. My boyfriend couldn't afford to make that payment and his own car payment anymore, and had to have his brother's car repoed. During all of this, my boyfriend was in school and could no longer afford it and had to quit. He only has about a year and half left to get his teaching degree. So with his brother ruined his credit, he can't finish school, can't buy a house non of the great things. His brother likes to pretend that he is this "Christian" guy that has never done anything wrong and he "Follows the right path with God" When is reality, he is one of those people that only go to church to make themselves look good in other peoples eyes. He is one of the biggest hypocrites and liars I have ever met. With this going on, one of his sisters got pregnant and they kinda blew up in her face with since she is not in school or married, and neither was her "boyfriend" at the time. He is one of those guys that has 4 other children from 4 other females that doesn't have a job and is living off of the government as a "JOB". (I'm sorry but that dude is worthless.) So She is a young single parent mom that has questionable "friends" that she hangs out with. Lets just put it this way, She likes the "Thug Life". With all of this, my boyfriends other sister is in a whole different world. She is a drug addict. She got caught up in the wrong crowed and married a guy that introduced her to Meth and Heroin. They have been in and out of jail, in and out of trouble since the moment they met. They have been married for 5 years and have a child together. She almost overdosed on Methadone 3 yrs ago and my boyfriend and I took care of their 9 month old baby (at the time) so that they could get better. We told them that if they went to rehab we would watch over their baby until they are better but they didn't want to go to rehab and they didn't want us to watch over they baby anymore so they had her husbands sister adopt their son. We haven't see their baby in 3 yrs now. Well the shocker of this is my boyfriends Sister who has the drug problem, her husband overdosed on Methadone and died Friday night.....Grieving over anyone is a horrible, awful feeling to go threw and watching someone grieve while on drugs is even worse. She is so strung out and pretty much higher then a kite and you really can't do anything about it is a horrible feeling to experience. When she talks she is falling asleep, she even falls asleep while she is trying to eat cause she is so high. She has no job because she is too high to work, she can't even drive because she walks and talks like she is drunk. It's so frustrating to watch a person literally killing herself slowly. She is staying with me and her brother until she figures out what she wants to do and we don't mind her staying with us at all, but we are so scared that she is going to pop all of the pills she has and overdose herself and we find her the next morning dead. We are so scared that what happened to her husband, will happen to her. So this is where we are at now. The funeral is on Wednesday and from there I'm hoping that She will put herself in Rehab and get her things together. That is the ONLY way I see her getting a grip on life and actually start LIVING. I honestly feel that is the only way to save her is by going into rehab and clean herself up. If not, I don't know what will happen. So if you could please pray for my boyfriends family and help uplift our  spirits would mean the world to me.
