[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 498560"] Thanks Everyone... he called today. He wants to get that bike so he has transportation. Now he is back there we are going to do that for him (no direct money though we will do it via credit card over the phone). But he sounded good. I asked him about his time on the street and he did not share much but his tone of voice made it clear he does not want to repeat that experience.I think it really was a wake up call. I asked him about the conversation getting back into the sober house. Apparently they talked about what happened and made it clear he is on 0 tolerance for infractoins.... if there is another infraction he would have to be out for 30 days. He said he does not want to have to do that!! I am kind of impressed with this place (though I have never seen it). I mean we all know that relapse is part of recovery.... and it seems like this place recognizes that too... so if he someone screws up they are not out forever but they also don't just get forgiven with no consequence either. We talked about our coming down this weekend and we will get to see where he lives which I am looking forward to. I am looking forward to seeing him. TL [/QUOTE]
