[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 698512, member: 17542"] Sounds like he is better, Alb. That is really good. Prayers it continues. My husband talks a lot about pixie dust. People expecting miracles, at work, with challenging people, with tough situations... There is no pixie dust. Life is slow. People don't turn on a dime. They may start in a direction...and then digress...and then start again...and then go backward....and if we're lucky, return to the progress. I guess some people have an easier road to walk, and some people don't. I don't know how else to grapple with it. Right now...I'm sensing (I know, that mother's intuition that can be so wrong) that Difficult Child is maybe struggling a bit. I think I posted somewhere lately that he told me he's started taking antidepressants and going to therapy. Good on the face of it. But I haven't heard from him much at all in a couple of weeks. Now...that could be good...and it could be neutral....and it could be bad. But of course my old thinking kicks in... I'll see him Monday afternoon as we are having all over for a cookout for daughter in law's birthday. Til then, I'm standing back. If he wants to call me, he will. Another thing husband says is this: You'll know when you need to know. Sigh. [/QUOTE]
