[QUOTE="DDD, post: 414159, member: 35"] easy child/difficult child told me today that he dioesn't think he'll come home as he sees it as "a backward step". I'm not sure what he'll do.....because he has great difficulty making decisions and is apt to change his mind. He "thinks" he will move into the house of a difficult child's Mom who has invited him there. Honestly I can understand not wanting to come home. Part of me is actually relieved but the other part is really concerned. Guess after over a decade of living in crisis I am conflicted. If money wasn't an object I am close to positive I could get him to relocate and get a fresh start. Unfortunately his rehabs and his hospitalizations drained what was left of our savings. easy child who lives in the Atlanta area would help him there [B]but [/B]she and her husband have a lovely life that they have worked hard to build. She told me some months ago that she needed to talk with him directly to make sure that he was prepared to change his lifestyle. Of course he isn't going to promise not to drink, attend AA etc. which I assume is the criteria for their support. easy child's husband was an active alcoholic in this twenties (maybe a bit longer) before he had to make a choice. easy child or booze. He opted for easy child and the two of them live a peaceful healthy lifestyle. I [I]may [/I]share that with easy child/difficult child but I know his difficult child side won't accept rules and directions from anyone at this time. I'll update when I have an update. I'm keeping my fears in check. on the other hand, I feel [B]very[/B] tired this week and I assume it is from my concerns. :sigh: On the other hand, lol, it may just be old age! DDD [/QUOTE]
