[QUOTE="chrisdog01, post: 152646, member: 5211"] Thanks for all the kind words of support, I really need them today. Each day gets a little harder. Last night while driving home from work I drove past an area that has a lot of homeless people (which I drive by everyday) and I started imagining him there. I think that made it a little more real that he doesn't have any where to go. I know he's resourceful and will find a place to sleep, eat, etc. and basically survive, but it's just so hard as a parent to watch your baby go through this. My husband and I discussed this, but for now we are going to keep his phone active because we can see the bill online and we can keep track of him this way. But we are going to send him a message towards the end of the week just to let him know that he can still report for his work project sentence without having a warrant issued (since he skipped last weekend he probably thinks they will arrest him right away, but he has a couple chances until they do that). We are also going to ask him to talk with us about his short range plans. He has the car we let him use and we pay for the insurance right now. But if he isn't planning on working towards coming home or straightening up, then we probably should cancel the insurance and take the car out of our name. Enough for now (I have to go to a meeting, guess I need to work sometime today???) Thanks again everyone, finding this board has been such a great relief for me. [/QUOTE]
