[QUOTE="ColleenB, post: 712784, member: 19887"] We got a call tonight the detox will take him in the am. Maybe all my "crying mom" calls finally worked. I heard him say "that would be my mother, yes" I talked to so many people today I lost track. It seemed so wrong that he wanted to go, and that he would have to wait. I hated the idea of him going out and not knowing what the next day/night would bring. I know it's only the start of this next part of his journey but at least he as admitted he can't do it alone. He still thinks it's a quick fix and he will get back to life in no time. The truth is he has no life right now. I am packing his bag and thinking back to packing his camp bag. I know I shouldn't be doing it for him.... I want to do it. Getting him clean clothes etc... is small. It's not doing the hard work he will have to do himself starting tomorrow. I know I need to do some healing and learning myself. I'm off until Thursday but could go back Wednesday...and even though he goes tomorrow I might take the extra day to rest... and reflect. [/QUOTE]
