Long road but the path ahead holds hope.
Hello my dear friends;
A very happy Easter to all of you. We have a 6 hour visit with our son E tomorrow. We can take him off sight but not out of the county where the rehab is located.
We struggle ourselves with PTSD and remain in therapy.
We are challenged with the crazy cop mom and her addicted daughter. We have taken the approach that we do not want her to become be the forbidden fruit. She will not be allowed on sight ever unless she agrees to a drug test. He had his first Phone call allowed to her today. that is why we are still awake. It was so damn hard to allow this contact. We know that if we forbid contact 100% that this will only solidify this broken relationship.
It is soooo hard to throw scars on my tongue and a smile on my face and allow this process. We do have faith that our son will tire and move on. She has declared she is getting clean with him and there have been non stop party posts on social media from her; which we have provided to his rehab.
His first face to face will NEVER happen out of our sight. And won’t be for another few weeks.
We are away from the 13 to the 23. His first overnight will not be until after this.
He has embraced his studies and is doing very well. He is quit bright and has now revamped his educating plans and is speaking of wanting to attend university. Frankly I could not care less if he did or didn’t. He could work at McDonalds as long as he was clean and sober I would be good with anything.
I am following all of your posts and I am hoping to have the time and strength to be back supporting all of you the way you have supported me.
I am sleeping and find it has made me feel even more tired. I know we all have a long way to go in this journey.
Again a very happy Easter to all.
