[QUOTE="Enmeshedmom, post: 727910, member: 22547"] Well he went back to the hospital for a few more days for intense muscle spasms and hallucinations. This time I did not go, I was very busy with work and am not interested in pretending that it is anything other than what it is. He is telling people on Facebook that he had the flu the first time and that exhaustion had him back in there the second time. I feel better having not involved myself this time. He knows that he can come to me if he is ever ready to stop pretending and get help. My mother’s involvement in this whole mess is what gets me sucked in again and again but I am also making my peace with the fact that my love for her can’t save her. She is making a decision to hitch herself to his wagon and try to right all his wrongs and take care of his kids. Anybody can see it isn’t working except her. Who ever thinks their mother is going to be homeless? I have offered her a place to stay but because I can’t take them all she is not interested, I have offered to give her rides to places to apply for housing and she said she already did and is on a waiting list but I don’t know if that is true. Last week even though this sh#t storm is still swirling I was able to stay focused on work for the most part so that is a small victory. My son has triggered me a bit but I am working to keep things in perspective. I am attending 3 meetings a week in person and a couple online and reading a lot of the literature and am finally ready to believe that I can live a better happy life even if none of the people in my life ever change.
