[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 629378, member: 17542"] Echo! What progress (I know it's happened before, but this is what has to happen---these steps---if he is ever to get treatment and stay with treatment, right?)!!! I think the best of all worlds has happened, right now. He is doing something different. What if you don't go right now, at the beginning of this step for him, but you reserve the right to go later, if it continues? That seems reasonable to me. That way, you can wait (waiting is ALWAYS good) and see and give him a chance to truly do something different this time. You have started something different with him, and now he is doing something different. Let's see if it sticks. If it does, you can cautiously support it, all the while treading lightly, seeing if THIS time is THE time. Oh, I so hope so! Big hugs, let's celebrate this, even if it doesn't take. It is a good step. And, let's keep our wits about us. [/QUOTE]
