[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 619679, member: 13542"] WF, it's a normal response to want to figure out the whys and the wherefores, however, whatever the reason for your son's improvement, in the final analysis, it doesn't even matter. It is what it is. He will steadily improve or he will hit a wall and stop. You can't control that and you can't change it. All you can do is wait it out and continue with your own detachment for YOU, so that his ups and downs don't send you on a new ride every time he changes. He's safe and apparently doing well, put that somewhere in a little box in your brain and ENJOY YOUR DAY. Don't ruminate over the reasons, you may never know............if this is it and his entire life from here on out is healthy and wonderful.................wow, that's great................but if it isn't.............well, in that moment you can trust yourself to know how to respond. Today? Go out there and play, laugh, have some fun, EAT LIFE and enjoy the ride. [/QUOTE]
