[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 655648, member: 17635"] Lil, Sounds like there are some light rays shining through. I hope your son runs with these new chances. I have been reading along this latest news and feeling for/with you, Jabber and your son. husband and I have been there when our difficult child was about your son's age. I hurt for you. And, husband and I often reacted out of anger. Sure, looking back, we would have done it differently. But, duh, in this chaos created by our difficult child's, how often can we re-think and re-do? The crazy stuff just happens. This was several posts back, but yes, when you think it cannot get any worse (police called), it gets better. Our darkest moments, when we think there is no hope, are NOT the end of the story. Just looking back on my own story, I hope, hope, hope your son takes this opportunity. This also reminds me of the time I met difficult child on the road and he flipped me off. This was, obviously, a different scenario from what you experienced, but that moment is ever emblazoned in my brain. I gave birth to him (and it hurt), I loved and nurtured him, took him to Baskin Robbins when his dad worked late (full time school and full time work). We danced, we sang along to Elton John in the car, we played CandyLand (I often let him win) and [B]He.Flipped.Me.Off?!?!?![/B] back to you....hang in there, be especially kind to yourselves and hope for the best. We are all here for you and are pulling for your family. SS [/QUOTE]
