[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 749688, member: 18958"] TL. I am so sorry that he left detox. I am glad you are not involved directly. If it is at all possible can you move back a little bit from the blow by blow? It seems to me that it is a hard spot to be in, the powerlessness of it. Do you really need all of this knowledge? Can you confer with the program staff to decide a level of information that would protect you? I mean, if you are not involving yourself directly with your son and his minute to minute decisions and actions, do you really need to know? You matter here too. The man I am involved with has been an alcoholic most of his life, quitting for very long periods and relapsing. This was the story of his life. Until one day he stopped. And never drank again. This could be the same with your son. Until he decides one day it's enough. But until then, as long as the program is taking responsibility do you have to be in this for the twists and turns, stops and starts? Does it help? Maybe our role is something different. [/QUOTE]
