[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 724411, member: 21895"] Holt has it been 7 weeks already. Time has flown in someways and crawled in others. I am sure you feel the same way. Friends of mine are neurosurgeons, they have spoken a lot with me about neuroplasticity. Essentially they feel the brain has a miraculous way of rewireing to heal itself. They encourage me to believe that with sobriety (and even short period of sobriety) that the brain function does recuperate. They indicated that if there is long term sobriety before the Age of 25/26 even after many years of alcohol and drug abuse that the brain does recover. I know it is so hard to think about long term. I just read a quote today from Melody Bestie “Detachment doesn’t mean we don’t care, it means we keen to love, care and be involved without going crazy.” It is a process and I can understand your anxiety Abington this upcoming visit. I am so hopeful that all goes well. The feeling of impending visits or engaments. We all know that feeling oh so well. Please try to live in the moment and not think to far ahead....that’s when we go Crazy and lose our hold on detachment. Hard is good. Someone once said to me if your addicted son is unhappy or angry, we must be doing something right. This is a tremendous gift of love that was no easy task for you and your husband to orchestrate for your son. One day at a time mama, that is all any of us can do. If not the swilrey Whirle Crazies set in. I am hopeful this visit goes well. [/QUOTE]
