michelle, i'm so sorry for your daughter's leaving and the loneliness her absence must be in your heart. my sister did more or less the same thing, minus the police. she finally came to her senses about 6 months later.

she now has 2 young adult daughters who have dished it back to her big time. they, too, are now both settled down and looking at weddings in the near future.

i pray that your daughter finds her own peace sooner than later and gets on with the rest of her life with you in it!
