[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 763501, member: 19522"] Hi B, This is great news that (1) your son will admit to having a problem and (2) agree to go to a rehab. I’m so glad for you and hope and pray that your son follows through with the program. It is a roller coaster, that’s for sure. When my daughter first went into rehab, I was so intensely anxious. Make sure that you take good care of yourself B. It’s easy to get caught up in an outcome and tangled up inside with worry. Take one day at a time and do good things for you. These are all pluses, that he has no money, is away from friends who use and he knows you have set a boundary. I hope and pray with you B. I am so glad that you were able to reach out and he took this opportunity to get clean. There are a few folks that I can remember whose adult children recovered after rehab. They come back and post every so often. I think being cautiously optimistic while working on continuing to strengthen yourself is a good approach to take. Of course you had to try, this is your son. I am so glad that insurance will cover the cost, that is awesome. I’ve said the same to my daughters. I will help as much as I can if they go through rehab, but I am not qualified to counsel them. Good job, B. He does have to do the work. But, so do you, for yourself. Make sure you take very good care of yourself. I’m so glad that your son has taken this step. Prayers going up that he finds his true light and potential. (((Hugs))) Leaf [/QUOTE]
