Thank you MissLulu. You and your hubby are very generous to do this for your son. I hope that he will express SOME appreciation of some kind, but if he doesn't, I hope at least that his circumstances will at least level out enough to give you both some peace and rest from the turmoil.
When you're hurting yourself, it is hard to look outside yourself to other people. Here in the U.S., this coronavirus situation has escalated to a point that is very disturbing. Today, my husband and I both spent time in three grocery stores, separately, to try to stock up on food items. Businesses, schools, and many other entities are closed now. Our country hasn't had to deal with these types of things since WWII and we are pampered people (myself included!).
Anyway, I digress--my point is that when we brought him here three weeks ago, I thought maybe once his physical needs were being met, he might begin to show some willingness to take his eyes off of himself, if only for a moment. I'm still waiting.
He took his driving exam this morning. He failed it because he forgot to look both ways at an intersection and its an automatic failure. My husband will schlepp back to the DL office again tomorrow morning so he can retake it. Josh was pretty angry and my husband had to listen to his rant on the way home. I'm praying and hoping he was humbled enough by the failed test to not be so "know it all" and flippant.
