First we got the news that a young woman who had bee my sons first girlfriend in middle school died today of a heroin overdose! Heartbreaking news,
Then we got woken up by the phone which is almost never good. It was my son. He has been relapsing and was caught tonight! I asked him if he had been relapsing all along and he said yes. I asked if he had been playing us and he said yes. He said he is trying to be honest.
Dang it.
He is hoping they will give him another chance. I told him he needs to call the treatment center. We will only help through them. We are nothing for another sober house except them. He said he knows that. He said maybe he has to get in touch with bottom again. He said he does not want to be doing this. I told him art of it is knowing he can't do it alone. Apparently he hasn't talked to his sponsor in 2 weeks...so I said you need to call your sponser...and he said he would do that right now.
So we shall see....I did know if he was drinking again he would eventually get caught which he did. So he may be on the street again tomorrow! Ugh ugh ugh....but he clearly know we won't prevent that and I am glad he was calling to tell us but was not asking us to do anything.
I am going to find things to be thankful for tomorrow....one thing is he is still alive....
