Dear Abby

DEAR ABBY: I have three kids. One of them, “Jake,” is in his early 20s. He has medical issues, so he has always been babied to a certain degree. Jake has struggled with jobs, drugs, friends and places to live. Somehow, he always ends up back with me.

🚔 Coos County Sheriff's Office Traffic Safety Reminder 🚨 As we head into the holiday season and winter weather, roads in Coos County can get slick and busy fast. Let’s all do our part to get home safely. ✅ Slow down – especially on Hwy 101, 42, and our coastal & mountain roads ✅ Buckle up – every seat, every trip ✅ Never drive impaired – alcohol, drugs, or even extreme fatigue ✅ Watch for deer & elk – they’re active this time of year ✅ Turn on those headlights when it’s raining or foggy – Oregon law requires it when wipers are on If you see a stranded motorist or dangerous driving, call our non-emergency line at (541) 269-8911 or dial 911 in an emergency. We’d rather pull over for coffee than pull you out of a wreck. Drive like the people you love are in the other car. Stay safe out there, Coos County! #DriveSafeCoos #BuckleUp #ArriveAlive #CoosCountyOR
