[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 607593, member: 3305"] antsmom, Thank you for sharing more of Ant's story with me...My memory is no longer the best and I'm not sure I was here when Ant took off to Reno. His words, his desperation though remind me of my young difficult child. I am trying very hard to "let go"...and Let God. Last night I got on my knees and prayed...it's been a long time since I did that. I prayed for a miracle for difficult child and his family. This morning I got a phone call from him and he was excited. He had gone to a new job interview and it pays well. We shall see if he actually gets the job...of course he is already talking like they've hired him. Antsmom, I did not know about TPCmom's son Joey. I am so very sad to read this. You are right though...and I have been told many times on the board that even at home he could overdose. So all the provision in the world will not save him from his drug use. I do need to look after my health. In fact, Antsmom, I had a pysychotic breakdown Feb 07. That's when I found out that I had been manic and was finally dxd with Bipolar Disorder. I am on good medication...but lately I have found myself in pain nonetheless. Yesterday I had another internal sonogram as there is still some kind of mass in my Uterus. We have already done one Biopsy and the results were normal...so not really sure what's going on there. Oh, and to my surprise, Oldest difficult child called Young difficult child this morning...basically to tell him he better get his act together soon or he would be homeless and without a family. I was glad Oldest showed some care/concern for his brother. I am trying very hard here to just keep praying and letting God do His work. This is not up to me any more...He really does need to sink or swim on his own. And Kathy, I am SO GLAD to hear your daughter is stepping up to the plate and that you have learned how to pull back more. It is very hard to do! Sig, I used to imagine both of my son's drowning and me being there only hope...compelled to send them a life preserver. But I have discovered that there is a bigger picture and that in reality...they're touching bottom. They are not as desperate as I so often think...they are resourceful and I want to also believe that something good from the way husband and I raised them is also in there at work...compelling them to keep trying, to keep moving forward. It's not over. Thank you all for standing by me and also for the prayers offered up for my difficult child and me. Love, LMS [/QUOTE]
