[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 705575, member: 18958"] This is a hugely positive thing, I think. He chose to go where he would be cared for, where he can recuperate. He knew you would urge him to get treatment. His threats to not contact you, were empty. Instead, vulnerable and hurting, he came home to nurse his wounds, with his mother who loves him. Feeling. I hope he stays for awhile. You can help each other. I am grateful, too, that he came home. I got my PhD from the best university system in the world despite flunking out my first semester in University and despite a mediocre C plus average for my BA. The same excellent University accepted me for graduate studies. Why? Because University admissions people know that very smart people do not achieve in an ever rising upward progression; there are valleys in life. I tested well, as he does. And that way I overcame any deficit in my grades. And all of the best professors wanted to work with me. Because overall they value hard work, excellent, and smarts. He has them all. It will be better. For him. For you. I believe this is a turning point, Feeling. Be encouraged. Be hopeful. Your middle son came home to you. Your oldest will too. I feel sure of it. [/QUOTE]
