[QUOTE="rejectedmom, post: 492069, member: 2315"] Ours went well after the initial bombshell that we would have no where to go Christmas day unless we left our (newly released from rehab/psychiatric hospital) son on his own. So we had our family Christmas eve gift exchange and dinner celebration here as usual and then spent a quiet day home alone on sunday. husband and easy child/difficult child went to the nursing home which gave me alone time for a couple hours. easy child/difficult child does not initiate going to AA meetings on his own yet but goes when we remind him. Not sure what that means yet. This is all new to him so will let it be till he has time to establish a new routine. He has been to two since Thursday. He is at one right now for three in 4 days. Not a meeting a day but there isn't that possibility for him once he returns to work anyway.It looks like the most he will be able to get in is 4-5 a week. Not alot of morning meetings in this area and he doesn't get out of work till 9 pm and evening meetings are over by then. He is totally wiped from his medications by 8 pm anyway. We are looking for online meetings that are not on google or yahoo due to privacy issues. He is newly sober only 40 days now so do not know how this is going to go. Time will tell. It's harder to know when to stop reminding them to take medications and go to meetings when they are highly functioning Asperger's. We will be calling HR today to try to set up a meeting to talk about him returning to work. Hope that goes well. [/QUOTE]
