[QUOTE="Estherfromjerusalem, post: 763591, member: 77"] Dear Brokeninside, Copa is right -- some of us whose children detoxed in rehab have moved on. But I do actually come here almost every day and see what's going on. I just don't feel the same need to write any more. Let me just tell you: Hang in there. My son was in Australia for 9 years and we had no clue that he was addicted at all. When he reached rock bottom (a failed suicide attempt, overdose), he phoned us and asked for help -- he was 31 at the time. He knew of a rehab place here in Israel and we managed to bring him home and get him in there. I won't bore anyone with the details, but the bottom line is that this week we are celebrating four clean years. Yes! Four years. It hasn't been easy. After six months in rehab he came to live with us and here in Israel apartments are not large, but somehow we managed, he found work on a building site and he kept that job, and just three weeks ago he actually moved out to a teeny apartment that he's renting. So I just want to wish you strength to get through this difficult time. Love, Esther [/QUOTE]
