[QUOTE="helpangel, post: 628303, member: 7170"] sadandlost glad you found us but sorry you needed to. my only advise is like on an airplane when the oxygen masks drop you have to put your own on first so you can assist others. this means you need to take care of yourself right now drink water, eat proper, exercise and if available to you recommend grief counseling for yourself. allow yourself to process the loss of the relationship with your son. i don't know how long before your son decides to make contact just know the odds are in your favor, most of the time they do make contact eventually. unfortunately it's usually for bail, hunger sometimes gets them in also... depends on in your area soup kitchen available or not. eventually they usually make contact. i'm speaking as a 50yo former difficult child who got kicked out at 17yo, though sometimes just think of myself as a difficult child with seniority. all 3 of my kids are still living with me, but in my son's case it's a question of who's watching who? guess we all have our jobs here. sending you hugs and peaceful thoughts nancy [/QUOTE]
