[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 618129, member: 17269"] I don't have anything to add to what Recovering has said...that is really really good advice and commentary. I am just posting so you know that you were heard, seen, that we know that you are suffering, that we can (maybe) imagine what a horrible gut blow that news is, and yet....what the others have said is true. It is his to recover from. He has to deal with it, just like my daughter had to deal with me dealing toxic, just like I had to deal with my bipolar dad, just like my SO had to deal with his life-ruining schizophrenic mom (he was her caretaker since age 13)...and yet it wasn't life-ruining, although clearly it was life-impactful. You can't fix what happened to your son, if it did. You can't undo those decisions. YOu can get stuck in wallowing in them...or you can forgive yourself and move on, you can honor and respect your son by letting him manage his own *(&&(. I am holding you in my heart today, Aud, momma. [/QUOTE]
