[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 756034, member: 18958"] Dear 200Meters. I don't know how but I lost track of this thread for a couple weeks and I am sorry. I want to thank you so much for your caring and thoughtfulness. With this:This brought tears. While I would not have wanted you or anyone to suffer this, I feel grateful to not be here in this place alone. I am like this too. Thank you for sharing with us your visits to the lupines, and that delightful lunch. I agree with the others, about putting money on the books for his cigarettes and debts. I recognize he wants it, but the money can be leverage to victimize and manipulate him too. It does not protect him. I believe he is served by working these things out himself, and thereby learning from his experience. I would recommend putting a nominal amount on his books on a regular basis, that you determine, in advance, and not according to his emergency requests. I worked many years in prison. There's a lot of victimization that happens around money on books. And people get themselves in trouble. There's extortion. And gambling. And drugs. Etc. Plus. I will say it again. Everything you say about youngest, he sounds capable and headstrong. Why fuel him? I am always happy when you post 200Meters. All in all things sound good with you. I won't ask about the election, but I'm curious. [/QUOTE]
