[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 739841, member: 15032"] I do agree with everything you said TL. Just like a marriage, there is no one really that knows what's in your marriage except you. And your partner will have a different view most likely. No one really knows any of it except us. My good friend just lost her nephew to a heroin overdose a few days ago. He was 21. I had grown up next door to her and her two sisters. Her younger sister is the one whose son just died. I had known for some time that he had this problem and she knew about my son. I did talk to her about her son because she was at a total loss and I was further along in the process and am more of a find the answer (there is no answer) type of person. She did continue to get him out of jail time and time again and I had told her not to do that for the reasons we all talk about here. In the end, she was not able to save him and the news is very sad. It made me thankful that we were able to force our son into treatment. But he has stayed on his own. It could have been him. My son sounds a lot like your son. But I had to believe that each time he got something out of the treatment. We met so many people and I really feel that recovering addicts are some of the most amazing people I have ever met. Good luck to you and prayers and I hope that he is closer to living the life he was meant to live. [/QUOTE]
