[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 757035, member: 18958"] Dear Andy: There are so many of us who have been in this place, myself included. My son has a potentially fatal chronic disease for which he requires medication. I put him out. He has been homeless off and on many years. He stabilized on medication the last time he was with me, but I could not keep on the way I was. Because he used my support as a haven to continue his addiction. I stopped buying him food, and he went to a Sober Living Home. For 3 months, he was stable continuing on his medication. This week he left there. Now I am in the same old place. Terrified that he is unstable again and he will discontinue his medication. The thing all of us have to face is that they have to choose to live. And with G-d's help, they have to choose how to live. I came to the belief that any illusion of control I had, any sense that I could protect and guide my son was a fantasy. [/QUOTE]
