[QUOTE="slsh, post: 58692, member: 8"] It's official - thank you has been accepted at the TLP program. He will be moving in about a week and a half. In spite of his initial ambiguity, he's extremely happy about it now. It's time. He has earned it. I'm having a serious anxiety attack and probably will be in a state of hyperventilation until.... next year?? It's been a wicked long road. He left for Residential Treatment Center (RTC) #1 over 7 years ago. I keep telling myself that my own anxiety (aka terror) is perfectly reasonable given our history but... phew/whew boy. I'm really pretty flipped out myself here. Didn't expect to be so nervous for him but... there it is, I guess. I want so badly for him to handle this transition well. It's almost physical how badly I want this to be a success for him. He's worked so hard, done *so* well, even holding it together the past 6-8 weeks knowing that a change is coming and still not flipping out. It's hard to be objective, but I *think* he's ready. He's certainly made more progress than ever before. Please oh please, let it be enough for him to maintain during the initial few months and then continue to grow. Keep a good thought for old thank you. Some serious freedom and changes coming his way. [/QUOTE]
