[QUOTE="missy44, post: 284417, member: 6201"] I think what makes this so hard this time is that he is actually trying so hard and he's looking so good. He's given up all of his old friends (every last one of them), has a new girlfriend (she won't even tolerate cigarette smoking) and he's head over heels. He has a job interview tomorrow. Today he showed up at my work after applying for 2 job, visiting his psyc and overall it was a good day and a good night. Wow, he's been eating like a horse for the last month, the weight looks so good on him. On Wednesday he's in a golf tournament with his doctor and 2 counselors and some other "difficult child". I laughed and said "don't make any new friends", but inside I meant it. When he is good, he's so good. We all played some road hockey the other night and the laughing felt so good. I forgot how wonderful his smile was. He says that he's through with this chapter of his life. He fully admits that he has a few drinks now and then but that he doesn't want to do drugs, he sees what it's done to him. No friends, people after him, etc... Tonight we had a friend of his over, hung out by the pool and had hot tub. My younger two are loving their "old" brother. Fingers crossed that tomorrow will be good day too! Twelve hours at a time is my motto. Thanks everyone. It's so good to have a place to vent my worries. My hubby and I are going to continue on with our counselling too. [/QUOTE]
