[QUOTE="Dsmom, post: 746473, member: 23582"] Today is my son’s 43 birthday. I want you all to know how helpful your comments have been for me today. I texted him happy birthday wishes as reception where he is in the desert is fairly spotty. He texted back to say two of his friends from Northern California were going to come out and pick him up and take him back to the reservation in northern ca. Said that although it is filled with violence and drugs, he would at least have a roof over his head and a place for his dogs. Asked me to not be mad at him. I responded that I was not mad. And told him he is an adult male and must make his own choices in this life of his. I also told him his level of success would be determined by his level of sobriety, which due to the influence of the kind man has been 100%. I know in my gut, my son will not maintain that once he is back in his old stomping grounds. BUT I also know (from my prior experience with dealing with an alcoholic) that I have no control over that. Again...thank you all for your kind, encouraging words. You are helping me to maintain an inner level of strength that I had misplaced. [/QUOTE]
