[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 557082, member: 59"] I agree you are doing a marvelous job at keeping your thoughts to yourself and allowing him to preserve his dignity so that when he is ready to tell more he knows you won't attack him. It was interesting that your said easy child said difficult child wants to get back to school, does that mean the easy child knows he is not going to school now? Do you think difficult child is telling easy child more than he is telling you? I have high hopes that your difficult child will someday get it together and want to go back to school. It may not be the school he was originally in and that probably wouldn't be a good idea. He may want a fresh start. I think the fact that he can still enjoy these outings with his siblings speaks volumes. And the fact that his apartment is neat says a lot more. I think there is a lot to be hopeful about and you are doing just the right thing by allowing him to share what he wants and just enjoy the time you have together. I enjoy hearing the updates, keep them coming. And I'll be thinking of you during your surgery. Nancy [/QUOTE]
